Is there any sort of SD card size restriction running Marlin on a Rumba board? I remember that before I upgraded my Rep1 to Sailfish the original Makerbot firmware only support cards up to 2 gigs. I’m hoping that’s not the case for Marlin… 2 gig cards are hard to find these days :wink:
I have been searching online, but just can’t seem to find anything on the subject…
I just went to start a new print on my cbot, and realized that my one sd card is being used by my rep1… need to go pick up another one asap…
thanks!

I know I’ve used at least 4GB on it., and that’s been fine. I know Fat32 formatting can be used with the SDFat library, and it supports up to 2TB. I’d be careful with SDXC though. 8GB is probably fine as well.

Thanks: Just grabbed a generic 4 gig from Walgreens, worked like a charm :wink:

I use an 8 gig on my ramps board with smart controller and Marlin if that helps

I use a 32 gb. The main reason I use such a large card is because you can make folders. In the folders you can put all your prints. I do it by week. So all 52 weeks have a folder.
