The pins and springs can fail more quickly if the SD card is inserted incorrectly, or if it is defective or damaged. Life varies a lot, but daily use will certainly wear it out faster. Once you have settled on therapy settings, you will probably find weekly or monthly review of data is plenty. If not, then switching to wifi makes sense.
Weekly or monthly? Dang. I better get in gear. I was thinking annually or biennially was doing pretty good.
There. I said it.

FWIW I can see Sleeprider's point on inserting card incorrectly. I'm thinking if you try to instill while on an angle, it adds stress. Straight in should be non issue.

RE: SD slot life ?
Has there been any technical progress with the Wi-Fi SD card arrangement? Nothing new or otherwise newsworthy?
BTW fill me in: you just buy the
Wi-Fi SD card and use an app to setup and run it?

And only works on 2.4 MHz WiFi band. I can't use anything on 2.4 MHz band due to neighborhood congestion. I use 5 MHz band exclusively so until there's one for 5 MHz band, I am SOL.
Everyone has a bad hair day once in a while. Same with a night on xPAP.
RE: SD slot life ?
How close does the card have to be to the router? Anyone tested this out and gotten an approximation?
Don't recall seeing this addressed.

RE: SD slot life ?
I'd guess walls would make that distance shorter, but IMO probably 50 feet or thereabouts maybe is workable. I'd also say it depends on your network equipment. Others that know for certain, please correct my guesses.

30 feet or 9 meters, and that's if you don't have a 2.4Ghz phone system or microwave in between.
