Don't see why it matters much if your satellite survives the crash. 

What you want to make sure is that your DATA survives, either because it was radioed to the ground during the flight, or because you put it in some sort of indestructible storage device. SD cards are pretty close. An SD card wrapped in packing foam, in a ziplock bag can survive just about anything, unless there is a fire...
