M.2 Hat

Post by FrizzleFried » Wed Feb 12, 2025 7:42 pm

Would an M.2 Hat be beneficial at all to an ARpiCADE? I assume it would cut down on load times by about half or more... buuut.... they're not that bad to begin with. Right?

I'm not sure how much (if any) benefit it would bring. Might be a bit faster but would definately complicate some things (copying games, making backup image) too. Pi5 actually has a faster SD card IO than previous Pis, personally I'm not worried about the load times... more the SD corruption issues you guys are having.
