16g card

---

Is a 16g card to big for the nook? On most dl's I see 2g, 4g, 8g, etc but no 16g.

No. 16GB is not too big.

The NC maxxes out at 32GB.

Is our CM7 also running off the card? (noobie question). I recently placed the CM7 on a Sandisk card, 16m, Class2 and all my MP4 videos are choppy or out of sync. I've tried several video players.

A related question: Is the SD image of CM7 the same as the stable version of the EMMC version since the video is reported to be working great in that version.

I' only loading movie files from the 32G uSD. Running CM7 from eMMC. I did run CM7 from a uSD a while ago on a Transend 8G Class 6 which the consensus seems to be the card to use. Class 6 seems to be the "sweet spot". Others have run Class 10s with very mixed results. Lower class ditto.

As far as the version of CM....I don't believe so. The stable signed is 7.0 (7.02) and have not personally seen a uSD version but I could be wrong.

(Edit): Try using VitalPlayer. My sotware of choice.

The "class" of an sdcard measures the sequential read/write speed. The deciding factor for how well an sdcard would run a rom seems to be something else: the small block random read/write speed (which does not seem to be listed on the package); see

for an interesting discussion & data (esp OP and post #19). Speaking for myself, I had a great deal of troubles running nookie froyo on two class 6 cards, but I had no problem using a cheap class 2 sandisk. You guess it: the sandisk's small block r/w speeds is almost 10 ten that of the two class 6. Right now I'm running CM7.02 on a class 4 sandisk and it's running great.

YMMV.

Updating the SD Card

I had used the image from Verygreen's link which is 7.0.0-RC2 but re-reading his original post it appears I can just copy the latest build from
"mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=encore"
and copy into the first partition then reboot in recovery.

Can someone comfirm this will still work? I'm having issues with choppy video and terrible battery life - though I realize the battery life is much less than stock. The stable version, 7.0.2 was suppose to address many issues and from reports is running great.

Thanks!

This will work.

I have a 16 GB card and I'm glad to hear it will work. However, which image should I use? Why isn't there a dedicated image for the 16 GB size? Will I only be able to use half my card?
