Anyone used the "classic" ARC-6120 battery backup unit for the 11xx/12xx/1680/1880 series with an 1882 card?
The classic battery backup is now called ARC-6120BAT113 while the one for the 1882 series is called ARC-6120BAT121
They look the same and use the same cable part number.
Wondering if...
Yep, the behavior was "undefined" across various devices, especially going past 4GB. The joy when larger cards worked out!!
Seconded. The only flash memory card that has died AND led to regrets is an OG Lexar 256MB CF way back when. Shied away from them for years after that.
Transcend is/was a legit memory card mfr - had multiple full-size SD cards. PQI is an OEM like SamirD said, but they don't manufacture flash memory any more.
With industrial cards, the speed is often not listed (though I doubt it matters for this application). You'd have to try to dig up an old...
Look for used brand-name (check pics for wear), or new-old-stock industrial cards (check pics and google mfr name). Shipped from the US, needless to say.
This looks like a decent new-old-stock bet from a defunct manufacturer.
And here's a used Transcend with best offer.
From the block diagram, it looks like other than the first two PCIe x8 slots, everything else (dual 10GBe, PCIE 3.0 x4 NVME, two PCIe 3.0 x4 slots, USB 3.1/3.2 controllers) comes off the PCH/Southbridge, which is limited by a 4Gbytes/sec DMI 3.0 link to the CPU.
I assume you haven't seen any...
If you want bog-standard USB-A for casual file storage with decent sequential write speeds, I like the Microcenter 128GB 5-pack for $38:
