Reliabilty? I've "killed" an 8 GB microSD card and an 8 GB USB stick with a 
Pi being used as a webcam and producing a time laspe movie. OK one full HD 
frame every 30 seconds and rendering those into a roughly 2 min timelapse 
every 6 hours is rather high use of "disc" storeage but bothe the card and 
stick only lasted a few months before going into "safe" mode. ie you can 
still read the contents but not write anything.
