Hello ,
I know that the SSDS cards are amazing and a good investment , but I don't think
that they can do the job here , - They're too small  so you may not found them if they are
lost , - you can’t necessarily depend on more than 12-24 months of longevity .
- Note that the temperature range for proper storage of SSDs is far smaller than for hard drives.

So I can say that using an SDD card to store your private keys is not recommended !

well i think the durability or an item which is lost depends on the user on how they take care of their things. I have a friend of mine who bought a cheap phone but it lasted longer than my branded one because he is good at taking care of it

All the problems go away if you simply


BACK UP YOUR WALLET


Regardless of how you store your keys, you must back them up. No storage is 100% reliable.

Yep sure that can be one solution , but sometimes some one can use his SDD as a backup when
he lost some data maybe on his computer and maybe he didn't use that SDD for a long time
so he couldn't backup !

Yes, backup as a solution fails if you dont create backups.

Im not really here, its just your imagination.
