PINE64

I picked this little gem up on Amazon for $22.  It let's you program the eMMC modules using Etcher or Win32 Disk Imager.  I've installed the MrFixIt2001 image onto a 64GB eMMC and booted my RockPro64 right up.  Full disclosure, it doesn't seem to work with RockPro64 bootstrap images though, and I don't know why...  

Pine should add these to their online store, IMHO.

How does this differ in function from pine64.com/product/usb-adapter-for-emmc-module/ as already offered by Pine64?

The Pine64 version using USB 2.0 design instead of USB 3.0 for below two reasons:

1. USB 2.0 transfer speed already fast enough for eMMC module read and write.

2. Better USB compatibility on using USB 2.0, this experience comes from encounter with several USB 3.0 SD card adapter fail cases.
