EMMC

hi guys, 
thanks for all your answers.
yes i was talking about the emmc adapter running through sdcard slot. And if i am understanding what is being said here...if using the standard sdcard slot on the pine64, there is no point as sdcard technology is already as fast as that slot presently anyway.

@MarkHayHarris777...Ah i see i looked at the wrong sopine board. I now see there is a Sopine Baseboard, which is what you are referring too.

1. Am i understanding correctly that even on the sopine board, the actual improvement above that of a good sdcard is not enough to warrant price of the upgrade?
2. I would also need to purchase the sopine compute module.

• If i was interested in stacking the compute module, would i need to use heatsinks or fans if setup like a tablet (ie ideas on how do we cool this thing whilst minimising vertical space?)
  

3. BUS extenders. 

• In the event that i wanted to add Sopine compute modules, i dont want them at 90 degrees, parrallel to the mainboard to save vertical space. How do i stack them to achieve this (see example of stacker for video cards...which is way too big)
  
• does Pine have any sodimm-ddr3 stackers? (i want to stack 2 of these on the sopine baseboard)
  
• could i simply make one up out of something like the old style IDE ribbon? (I realise one cannot use an ide connector...its just to illustrate how the old ribbon cables used to have multiple slots already on them for connecting multiple devices such as hdd, dvd, fdd etc)
