I do not consider Kingston to be quality product. I've had nothing
but bad luck with them outright failing, or just not remaining
consistent under OpenBSD.
On the other side, I've used over a dozen Sandisk (just plain fast
flash cards, not their super ninja ultra lightning speed) units and
*never* had one fail. And I don't jump through all the foolish
hoops of read-only or noatime. With modern, *quality* flash, it's
just not necessary anymore, IMHO. I just install the OS and log
everything I like. I've had some of them in service for five years,
being written to every second, and have never had a problem with them.
My two cents.
