   With my first Pi (3b), I was paranoid about wearing out the MicroSD card.   
      
   I created an NFS share on a NAS server, and mapped most of the Pi's /var   
   partition out to it via fstab. I did other weird stuff moving other   
   writeable partitions over to the NAS, thus I had a pretty busy network.   
      
   Worked well for years, however when I desired to update the OS, decided   
   life was too short to go though all that again, and instead focused on   
   an improved backup ritual for the card.
