eMMC modules

[ajtravis]

Thanks, that's a FORSEE eMMC, which I've seen advertised for the Rockpro64. However, I thought I would get a compatible eMMC ordering direct from Pine64. I got two older (mmc 4.5) modules from eBay and they work, but are not reliable: I suspect your's might be the same, not failing due to their age, but unreliable because they are not fully compatible with the Rockpro64. The modules sold by Pine64 are mmc 5.1, and should be a lot more reliable: The mmc 5.1 modules work well in my Pinebook Pro, running Arbian or Manjaro, but I have to boot them from uBoot in the SPI - Neither my Rockpro64 nor Pinebook Pro will boot directly from eMMC.

I am, of course, dressed casually :-)

Thanks,

  Tony.
