I plan on having two of them, with the same data. I heard flash drives are not good for cold storage, but aren’t all SSDs not good for cold storage? So what’s the difference? And does this premium solid state flash drive model make it as good for cold storage as any traditional big ssd?

Also, is the Kingston DataTraveler Max Flashdrive (1000mb/s) a good alternative, or is this SanDisk FlashDrive still the best over the Kingston in terms of build quality and safe longevity of data, even with the SanDisk having half the speed?

Thank you for the help in advance. It’s so confusing.

    So just power it up and repair it every 6 months, and recopy it into the USBs every few years?
