Aside from form factor, what differences exist between an external SSD
drive and a MicroSD card?

USB 3 for an SSD drive may introduce speed differences.
SSD drives likely draw more power.

Is there a meaningful difference in the expected life of each medium?
Is there a meaningful difference in the wear leveling technology
applied to each?

What other differences may exist?

Thanks!
