card space running low

I'm getting down to about 2 weeks of space left on the data card. Just curious what most people do. Create an image and copy it onto a bigger card? Archive it?

Any special requirements for a new card? I have one I'm not using that is a SanDisk Ultra 64GB.

You can:

- Clear out some minute data (hourly/daily can stay indefinitely). You could archive it first.
- Image onto a bigger card.

I wouldn't use the Ultra line, it's not meant for a lot of writes and they tend to die eventually. I would use their High Endurance line (decent prices on Amazon for those).

Thanks, worked smoothly. Now set up for another 12 years.
