I'll awnser all in one here harddrive is a no go, don't want it running all the time, it's only for backups
the reduced writes (no atime, ext2, etc) are already active though I need to set a higher "block io" time so it will gather more data to write at once the card was a class 10 4gb sd card from sansa, as it cost 25 € i thought it'd be decent =/ Am Freitag, 26.

Yes, I formatted it and copied the old system over, took ages, especially unmounting took multiple minutes so I guess the write queue was still packed full and hard to really get onto the sd I guess I just hit a really bad sd card, I'll attempt another go with using ubifs and the nand flash of the sheeva plug thanks alot everybody!
