which usb flash drive for debian ( on nsa325 or other ) (3 replies)

hello,

I have successfully installed debian on my nsa325 running on usb flash device.
But every flash device gets defect after using it for 14 days. ( I have now 5 defect usb drives )
I am using Intenso Micro Line 16 GB because this one was able to boot, when I tried to install debian.

I have tried a lot of things to minimize I/O on my flash drive.

1. My fstab-entry for rootfs partition is:

/dev/root / ext2 noatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1

2. I have moved the directories: /var, /tmp and /home to a external usb hdd

3. I am using a swap-file on internal hard drive

But the the problem still exists. After a couple of days, the flash drive dies ...

Which usb flash drive do you have?

best regards

Bjoern
