SDXC? SDHC?

[danixdefcon5]

So, I've been reading about something called the SDXC SD cards. Haven't checked out if this format also exists for microSD, but I do read that it seems to be incompatible with SDHC or something like that. Do microSD SDXC cards exist? And if they do, does the Pineapple Mk. V support them? I'm going to buy a 32Gb Class10 microSD for my pineapple, but unsure if there are any incompatibilities due to the mysterious "SDXC" format.

Yes, they exist, I have one in my phone. It "should" work in the pineapple, but I'm not 100% sure. I don't think we'll see any performance difference between a regular class 10 microsd or a class 10 micro sdxc on the pineapple even if they do work.

It looks like if your 32GB or less you will be NON SDXC (aka pineapple MKV compatible).

Thanks! I ended up buying an SDHC and as L0G1C says, the SDXC flavors are only available from 64GB and up, so the basic MKV specs hint me on SDHC anyway. Now I get fast I/O and more than enough storage for logs:
