Keep in mind that all current SD/SSD memory has a ~100k write life (per "cell"). So after a year or so (depending on usage and how much data is actually written to the device), you can start getting errors from "bad" sectors. Luckily, the firmware spreads the write cycles out evenly throughout the device to minimize this, but it still happens.
