I ordered a 32GB eMMC from a UK electronics company but I got sent a chip, not a module that would work with the rock64 so I'm having to return it. They had no pictures of it on their site so I didn't know what it was until it arrived.
I've read on this forum that the rock64 is compatible with odroid emmc modules but which odroid model is the rock64 (most) compatible with? odroid.co.uk sells emmc modules for the odroid C1/C1+, C2 or XU3/XU4. I'm not sure if these modules all have different connectors or if its just different software pre-loaded onto them?
Is there anywhere else is the UK or Europe apart from odroid.co.uk and allo that sells emmc modules? Is there a best brand or model to look for? Has anyone done any benchmarks of different emmc modules with the rock64? Tell me everything I might need to know about emmcs and the rock64 please, the rock64/pine64 page doesn't tell us much about this.
There is no universal standard for eMMC sockets - just so you know.
Yes, sure, some odroid eMMC modules are compatible and will work (I have one for the C2 that works just fine) with the PINE64 boards; including the Rock64. I will not speculate on here which of the odroid modules will and which will not work because I do not wish to give you a false impression that compatibility is guaranteed.
As for the benchmarks, they are out there if you google ... in short, Ordoid's high prices reflect higher performance.
