I'd like to reiterate that you have nothing to worry about as it will not damage your Envy 13,
And It will not damage the slot or anything else that you are worried about.

Thank you for posting on HP Forums,

As I understand you want to know if it's safe to have the Micro-SD mounted at all times,
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:
Did you know that Micro SD card or flash memory in general has a limited write cycle?
That said, leaving it inside your computer (always connected) shouldn't make any difference, because here's how it works, Usually this is in the order of 100,000 write cycles today and SD cards include circuitry to manage wear-leveling, that is, spread out writes over the storage media evenly to avoid "hot spots"—pages that are written too frequently and therefore failing early.
Information stored on the card is safe even in magnetic fields because the information is not stored magnetically (contrary to hard drives or floppy disks).
As for storing it inside your computer at all times, just remember as long as you don't do the below, you are good to go:
- you shouldn't store them in mud, water, lava or other harmful conditions.
- You probably also shouldn't put them on railways and let trains drive over them.
Jokes apart, In practice it doesn't physically damage the card and won't harm the data on it.

followed by clicking on 'Accepted as Solution' as it would help the community gain more knowledge,
And Have a great day Ahead!
