ODROID C1 USER MANUAL
Preparing the eMMC module
This is the alignment when using the Transcend USB3 microSD
card reader / writer model. The alignment may be different with your
own microSD USB adapter. Next, ensure that the computer you are
about to use to flash the image, has a functioning connection to the
Internet. Now that you have the USB SD card reader / writer with the
boot media inserted, attach the male USB end of the USB SD card
reader / writer to the appropriate (USB3 or USB2) female port on the
computer/USB3-hub.
The ODROID-C1 is not able to boot immediately with some mod-
els of microSD cards. However, you can still use any brand or speed
of memory card as storage. Sandisk Class 10 or UHS-1 cards are
working well with ODROID-C1, and below is a list of the memory cards
that have been tested:
Fully compatible microSD cards
• SanDisk microSDHC Memory Card
• SanDisk Ultra microSDHC/microSDXC UHS-I Memory Card
• Samsung SDXC EVO Memory Card
• Toshiba Exceria Memory Card
Partially compatible microSD cards
The following cards are not able to boot immediately on
ODROID-C1, but instead take about 30 seconds to start the boot up
process. Once the boot processing is done, and the operating system
is running, they perform normally:
• Transcend microSDXC Class 10 UHS-I 300x (Premium)
