Samsung's new memory cards are made to record over a decade of video

• Samsung is launching upgraded versions of its PRO Endurance microSD cards that are designed for years of use, which is roughly double the life of the original models.
• Samsung PRO Endurance microSD cards come in 32GB, 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB options.
• 32GB and 64GB cards write at up to 30MB/s, while the 128GB and 256GB cards write at up to 40MB/s. All sizes read at 100MB/s.

The upgraded series of Pro Endurance microSD cards are designed to record video for years at a time. The previous generation of Pro Endurance cards could record up to 43,800 hours of video over the lifetime of the card, but the new 128GB model has the ability to record up to 70,080 hours, while the 256GB model can sustain 140,160 hours of continuous use. 16 years is a long time for video.

Our readers want to see more of these types of cards, because they have very high read speeds. These cards are designed for the best security cameras with local storage because they are meant to have long-term video overwritten instead of high-quality video quickly written to them. One of these cards will last as long as 33 high-speed cards in a constantly-recording security camera.

That doesn't mean they are slow. All sizes of the upgraded Pro Endurance cards are rated for U3 and V30 speeds, which means they are able to handle constant 4K video recording. They have been reinforced to resist the elements, including protection against water, magnets, x-rays, and even extreme operating temperatures. That is great for outdoor cameras.

The 64GB version of the card is only $14.99, while the 32GB version is only $1099. The longest-lasting card will cost $54.99, while the fastest card will cost $27.98. If you want to buy one of the new-gen models, be sure to check the specifications before you buy.
