Pine phone : Drive read speeds ? - bcnaz - 09-17-2020

I am curious what the Pine Phone actually does in "drive read speeds".

 The eMMC drives and sd cards do each have their own speed ratings.

However in the end what matters is the speed that the phones mainboard can actually "use" them.

I may have 'missed it'   but I have not found this in the wiki, 

 I saw an older post that 'hinted' that the maximum sd card,  read speed by the board was 28mb/s.

 I am NOT asking for 'Favorite Brands' or '"Opinions"'....

Just facts :  How fast can the mainboard read each type of 'Drive'  ?

Thank you

According to Megous, see: https://xnux.eu/devices/pine64-pinephone.html

Quote:eMMC: read speed is about 85–88MiB/s max in Linux (somewhat slower on 32GiB variant – ~65MiB/s) patches for u-boot to make it as fast during bootloader stage exist too

microSD: read speed is about 23MiB/s max in Linux. patches for u-boot to make it as fast during bootloader stage exist too

  Thank you  @lot378 
 

So my $150 phone is faster than my $200 phone. interesting.... and factual !


 (Also explains why my $5.50 32gb Adata cards work just as good as the $15. 32gb San Disk cards)
