Is there a limit to the size of microSD card? #10

I'm assuming a 256gb, 512gb, or 1tb card wouldn't work? |

Howdy! It should work up to 2TB! I have not tested this as I am a broke college student, but the board shouldn't have an issue, and the only real problem is going to be local media.json generation for such a large file system. It could take several minutes to boot with 2tb of files so you may want to opt for disabling auto generation in the firmware. SD cards need to be fat32, but I explain how to format large cards in that manner on the instructible. |

ALSO individual files must be under 4gb! That's a limit of fat32. If you follow the media formatting guide it shows the best way to optimize your content for this! |
