[HECnet] SIMH on Raspberry Pi

For those of you who are running SIMH on Raspberry Pi, how are you getting around the fact that lots of writes on your SD card will eventually trash it?   I am considering moving my VAX instance to my Raspi, but didn't want to eat an SD card ... ;)

Is it as simple as perhaps mounting the VAX .dsk via NFS and letting SIMH use that, instead of the card?

I'm using an USB disk for the emulators (actually, all my rootfs is in that disk). On my "testing" raspi I mount an NFS partition, just as you said.
