<p>I use mainly SanDisk and Kingston - I feel the Kingston's are
better, but the one that's current suspect is a Kingston. I did
get a good run out of samsungs (expensive at the time too), but I
have had one of the 128G fail last year so didn't get more.<br>
</p>
<p>I was thinking of going diskless with a common image with just
the boot on the SD card, but the extra network traffic might be a
problem. Currently I keep a dd image of each type and
comprehensive backups so it doesn't take long to rebuild a card
and I have redundancy to cover failure.<br>

One thing that might help is putting the SD card in read-only
mode if <br>
your data is on external hard drives anyway. There are a few
guides <br>
online for doing this.<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
