this was a bit of a gamble because the pinout docs for microsd express are kind of _not so good_ so i'm hyped that something works on the first try

@mntmn Do these work in a normal SD card reader as well?

@piggo @mntmn it's nvme/pci express so I doubt that

@jeder @piggo they should work in a normal microsd reader but at reduced speed (they have the original microsd pins as fallback)

@mntmn Well done! I've never seen (or looked for) a _real_ card, just 2D mockups and the specs. Does it work well?

@attie a quick test with gnome disks shows me 400 MB/s read and 380 MB/s which is really ok for such a small card i think! it links up as PCIe 2.0 x1

maybe interesting for OpenZFS or btrfs enthusiasts?

@attie the card itself can fall back to normal microSD/SPI pins, but these are not wired up in my case on this port (there's another classic microSD port)

@mntmn Fun! I bet someone now will do a crazy microsd-express to full size PCIe adapter and plug a GPU into it....

@mntmn @attie woyld you put it in RAID1 with an M.2 SSD?

@mntmn do these also have comparable reliability to a real ssd, or are they like older sd cards which invariably fail after a year or so of running a root filesystem?

@mntmn Hast du mal darüber nachgedacht, dass der Grund warum es beim Ersten Versuch geklappt hat, weil du mittlerweile so gut bist? 🙂

@mntmn WOW!! First time see microSD express, I wonder how will the endurance in such small format.

@mntmn Do either of those automatically handle wear leveling now that the world is more or less all on SSDs by now? Asking because the usual way of killing SD cards in the past has been because the filesystem overuses some areas of the card and/or doesn't lock the bad blocks before the card stops working altogether.

@mntmn I am wondering how good the random read/write performance is, because it is labeled A1.
