For those people who are considering to use a RPi as a controller, just remember it does use a micro sd and I did burn up two 64 gig
playing around with them. They work wonderful and you can do a lot with them but when the max write limit is hit, bye bye. Both my
Pie's are on the shelf with me wondering what to do with them.

Hi Thaelin,
The original RPi used a microSD, while the newer RPi 2 and 3 require a nanoSD card.
As always, it all depends on the quality of the card you are using. I have for example an RPi that has been working continuously for the last 3 years as a temperature sensor without any problems.
The same kind or reasoning with running nvOC from a USB key is applicable, meaning that if you are continuously updating log files, or worse, using the card as virtual memory, you are going to kill the SD card rather quickly.
