If you check on various dash-cam forums, you'll find that Sandisk Ultra has a terrible reputation for dash-cam usage, which involves heavy writing and overwriting (hundreds or even thousands of times) of huge volumes of video data.

I've indeed killed less expensive cards with various dashcams.

Until I discovered the SanDisk High Endurance Video Monitoring Cards. Years writing continuously to the same card(s), no problems.

Similarly, 24/7 video surveillance systems are best served by the Western Digital Purple HDDs (IME).  And I only buy the WD Black HDDs for my computer storage needs (to pair with my SSD drives).
