I know they are written in reads and writes, but if I sync my non media cloud services to my external sd card, what is the general life expectancy I can expect from a higher than average or average sdhc card?

Also if the majority of reading and writing can be done in either the external or internal sd card. If your goal is long term file integrity which is better to use?

Since the external is emulated (is the internal too) does large data move on a usb cable quicker from an external sd card than an internal one?

If your goal is long term file integrity you shouldn't be using any memory card for that purpose as even the best brands can fail without warning at any time regardless of how long they are supposed to last. Memory cards are not designed for long-term data storage.

But out of the two. I just want to know from the vantage point of frequently writing which has a lower failure rate given the scenerio above
