I have a Patriot 32MB SD card which has failed on me and I only used it for my digital camera.

If you happen to have a hard drive fail, there are ways to recover the data depending on the failure. With a flash drive failure, your options are limited.
Lol this is making my decision very difficult. I'm worried that I load all my business expenses on there and one day my EHD or USB doesn't work and I'm SOL, because I plan on getting rid of all the paper.
