Best SDXC cards to run CoreELEC

General
1

Hello, these are the best rated SDXC cards I have found:

-SanDisk 64GB Extreme PRO 200 MB/s UHS-I Class 10 U3 V30
-SanDisk 64GB Extreme PRO 300 MB/s UHS-II Class 10 U3 V90
-SanDisk 64GB Extreme PRO 300 MB/s R / 300 MB/s W UHS-II Class 10 U3 V90

I don’t know much about cards, so I ignore if it will be better or worse or if there will be any CoreELEC compatibility issues depending on the card:

UHS-I or UHS-II
V30 or V90
64GB or more
200 MB/s or 300 MB/s

I want the best possible CoreELEC performance with 4K UHD movies, without playback problems or any kind of failure.

Which one is the most recommended? Is the first one enough? If a more expensive card really improves performance, I would have no problem buying it.

I run this on my parents Homatics box, no problem, you won’t come close to the 200-300MB/s transfer anyway.

Which Box are you going to Test CoreELEC on?

Some boxes the TF Card port CoreELEC will only boot on 32 gig or less micro SD Card

Could be a Factor??

Though I use CE on the internal memory I have had this question of which rating is more beneficial for ce given we have ratings like ‘a’ rating such as a2(which benefit random access) or ‘v’ rating like v90,etc (for sustained performance)

internal memory is fastest, no need to run off sd or usb disk

search the forum and follow the guide if you’re running on am6b+

Good question
Alot of these specs seem to apply to Computer or HD or UHD Cameras

So read write speed ( how long it takes CoreELEC to boot from External)
Will be the same?

The rest of the SD Card is just storage capacity?
Most users have network share/server.

Unless you have 100 + addons or store your whole library on external
32 gigs should be plenty?

I was thinking of trying CoreELEC on an Odroid C4 or maybe a Mecool K5. I’ve almost ruled out the latter because I’ve read a lot of bad reviews about the performance of this device.

Odroid C4
Is old SBC ??
S905X3? I think :thinking:

Well to each his own i guess
