Thumbs up Re: Anyway to use SD card as RAM?

Sorry not possible.
I read about using a memory stick as ram for a computer but the fact of the matter is that the interface between ram and the board vs. the interface between a sd card and the board are just not comparable. The sd card interface just does not transfer rate needed to act as ram. Hope that helps.
Makes this a short thread.

Re: Anyway to use SD card as RAM?

That's only part of the problem. You can still use it for paging, much like a hard drive. Unfortunately, flash has a limited number of write cycles before it fails, so if you did use it....you'd be buying new flash cards every few hours/days.
