I have one of those suckers, but the read/write performance is nowhere near the multi GB/s speeds of the NAND. Could be useful for archival, but it wasn’t great for blockchain indexing or running VMs.

USB4 can hit those speeds, but then you’re in dongle town.

Same here, these cards suck. Even loading an mp3 takes few seconds, it's insane.
