Yet in that scenario you are more likely to lose some of your photos. More cards means the chance of one being bad and failing increases. You are also more likely to lose one.
It's better to put all your eggs in one (big) basket and regularly back up to a hard drive, the cloud etc.

Potentially lose a lot of pictures if this card went corrupt, better off getting 4 x 32 GB, but it is a good price

Can this be used in a dash cam?

Unlikely, you almost definitely need a microsd card. There's the equivalent microsd one on another thread at 23.74.
Also, some devices have a max capacity of card you can use.
Check the manual of your cam.
Speed depends on what you were transfering. I expect most computers would transfer a single 4 GB file faster than 1,000 2 MB files (2 GB total).

I use h2testw. It reports 35 MB/s with my Sandisk card. Which other tools do you recommend?

I bought the same card (except micro SD) from Amazon and when I tested the speeds the fastest it would do was 25 MB/s which is less than the minimum 30 MB/s for the U3 certification. Should I send it back?

Try a couple of different benchmark tools first and make sure nothing in running in the background.

I've just double checked, mine is a Sandisk Ultra.... Silver and red, yes? Think this is the last of these I'll be buying. Mine doesn't grant me any sort of access! I too have tried several methods of recovery and nothing has worked. The first time I saw corrupt card on my DSLR I was able to format and shoot. Won't let me do that this time.

Unless you're talking about the Extreme Pro, the 90MB/s you mention isn't the write speed - that's the read speed. Sequential writes will be alot slower. Of the benchmarks I've seen they've ranged anywhere between 35-50MB/s for the Extreme depending on which benchmarks you look at eg. http://www.cameramemoryspeed.com/reviews/sd-cards/sandisk-extreme-90mbs-64gb-sdhc-memory-card/
For the Toshiba M302, I don't know what the real world sequential write speeds would be. I have the MicroSD version of the M302 so I can't say definitively whether that would perform exactly the same (the MicroSD version gets around 30-35MB/s sequential for what what it's worth). I'm sure there will be benchmarks out there if you have a Google but I doubt it will be as fast as the 2015/16 Extreme. It is alot cheaper though as the 2016 year U3/V30 rated Extreme is currently about £50 from reputable retailers for the 128GB version.

Thanks but I'm still unclear what the write speed is. I use the Sandisk Extreme cards usually which can hit 90MB/s but they are very pricey. I'm not expecting the same from this, but I rather suspect it will go a lot faster than 30MB/s.

My Sandisk Ultra card also failed after about using it to record about 40GB worth of video over a period of about 2 months. Permanently locked in read only mode and no amount of formatting or using error fix utilities will get it to accept any sort of writes. No idea if their Pro or Extreme lines are any better, but I'm not impressed by Sandisk cards at all as this is the second Sandisk card which I've had fail on me. Going to be using other brands from now on.

128GB is too high for a DSLR. Dont keep all eggs in one basket, I carry a few 32GB instead. Swap as needed.
I would like one to keep my MP3 in my car radio. Easy to replace if it fails.

Unless your camera has dual card slots (which plenty of Nikon do and the 7D I think), which negates this issue somewhat.

My 64GB Sandisk has just become corrupt, only 5 weeks old. Luckily it was at the start of a shooting session! I can imagine the devastation if it happens before you've backed them up. Definitely agree having multiple smaller cards is the way to go. 800-1000 images (roughly) on 32GB.... do we need much more?

It's U3, so a minimum of 30MB/s for sequential writes.
It really does matter for someone who takes his photos seriously

It all depends what you're doing. Obviously, if you're shooting 20MB RAW in burst mode at 6 shots per second, then sure, there's going to be a problem. But then again, if you're doing that sort of work, you'll already know what you're looking for and you won't be on HUKD looking for cheap SD cards....
