I plan on using a raspberry pi with a large MicroSD for a NAS storage that is mainly supposed to act as backup. Since my Network is only at 10 MB/sec anyway, the slow speed should not be an issue but I am wondering if there are any other disadvantages about using a MicroSD card as a data dump.

Of all the storage devices that failed me, I never had a broken sd card and since it is rarely read and even more rarely written, I would assume that reliability is not an issue either?
