Pine Rock64 eMMC lifespan - moonspell79 - 08-19-2021

Hello,

I am looking for SBC with long lifespan. I used arduino boards for some time, but for next project need more power and functionality. 
Can someone advice if Rock64 with 16GB eMMC card can work 24/7 for at least 2-3 years? I am aware of lifetime limitation for SD cards, that is why I choose eMMC instead, but never used that and would like to get some opinions before I buy hardware. 

Thanks
Michal

you should be fine. my Rock64 w/ emmc has been rocking away at BOINC jobs 24/7 for the last couple of years. No problems with the emmc yet.

Is that a benefit of using the 'f2fs' ? over ext-3 or ext-4

I read that elsewhere on the forum.
