The choice of SD card is important to get the most out of your BlueSCSI, especially if you are trying to achieve 5 or 10MB/sec performance.

First

  • Always format a new card with the SD Card Formatter tool - full overwrite format.

  • Always backup important data, no medium lasts forever!

Recommended cards

Note: This is not meant to be an exhaustive list, but recommendations for known good (or bad) cards. Any SD card will work.

High Endurance

High Endurance cards are recommended due to the constant read/writes of the disk images. They usually only cost a few dollars more.

  • Western Digital Purple
  • Samsung PRO High Endurance

Regular

These have been tested without issue.

  • Samsung EVO Select
  • Micrcenter SD
  • Amazon Basics

Avoid

All SanDisk cards.
