There’s a long-standing perception that Solid-State Drives (SSDs) or even magnetic hard drives are inherently more reliable than microSD™ cards for surveillance applications. While SSDs and HDDs have their strengths, when it comes to in-camera storage, modern microSD cards — combined with a well-designed camera platform — can provide reliability, performance, and flexibility for your requirements. (For simplicity, we’ll refer to Solid-State Drives as SSDs throughout this article.) In solutions such as Oncam’s next-generation architecture, microSD cards serve as the primary storage, delivering exceptional performance and reliability without the need for traditional NVRs, central servers, or extensive internet bandwidth.
