You made it very simple and easy thank you! Other youtubers made the obvious very complicated for 20 mins or longer

Straight to the point. Very helpful. Might just add that if it asks you to format your original SD card first hit cancel! 😂

Thank you so much for this tutorial! A lot of the other tutorials on here are very overwhelming to those new to this type of stuff so I really appreciated this straight forward method.

Been stressing for months on how to do this and this was super easy. Appreciate it very much. Now I have a good card in there with no worries. 🎉

I spent 2 hours on this tutorial (it was a long time but because of cloning the sd card and transferring it to the new one), following each step, and it really worked for me from the first try. I was afraid that something would go wrong, but everything is excellent, thank you for making such a well explained video

YES!!! Finally a quick, to the point video that worked for me! I'm so stoked it finally worked. This tutorial is awesome. TY my friend 🤙🏻

Just did it and worked flawless, thank you so much

Thank you! I dunno where I would be without KZread guides. This method works for the new RG35XX SP model! And the SP model is freakin cool

All I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you. This is a great tutorial. I thought just copying the files from a card would work. I didn’t realise it needed these extra steps, so thanks again.

I'm going to give it a try. Thank You for this tutorial.

Thank you so much! It worked flawlessly.

Thank you so much! Straight to the point. Your vid was very useful for me!

It worked perfect for the micro sd of R36S. Thank you!!!

wow!!!!! It really works. Thanks guy. This help me out a lot and your method is simple to follow.

I do need a work out. Thank you for pointing it out

It worked! I was pulling my hair out looking for a solution! Thank you!

This was easy to follow. Thank you. Any chance you could include a larger SD card? Then show how to expand the games partition.

awesome thank you for making this, straight to the point much appreciate it.

Awesome video. Very helpful...many thanks!!

Thank you so much it worked for me ❤🎉

Thank you it worked! But I also had an issue of unallocated partition because the destination drive is larger than the source. Could you please clarify how to maintain the size of destination drive?!

Will this work exactly the same for the Anbernic RG35XX Plus?

Will it work if the generic card has 2 partitions ??

Thank you very much. I guess you can do the process again for the 128gb SD card aswell ?

I bought a Anbernic RG ARC-S and I was concerned about the cheap SD card they used, so I simply copied it to my PC and to a Sandisk 128MB SD. Altrough I have minimum PC skills, it worked flawlessly, and now I have also a security backup on my harddrive for the worst case!

bro thanks, working at 100% thx

How different is this process for Mac?

Does it work on my Powkiddy V90 with the custom Topo firmware tho , when i add game i see it got 2 separated file like the one with the emu and storage and the one is like booted tho .

is this just for Anbernic devices, or is this a general guide? I just got a Powkiddy x55 and it has 2 SD cards, one is a 16gb operating system and one is a 128GB games card. I understand I can't copy the OS card using this method but I'm not sure this will work with the type of card I have.

Hello, thanks for the tutorial, everything went perfectly. A QUESTION, if I add a card in the second slot, does it create the ROM directories automatically? and are they also loaded in retroarch?

I got two sd cards with the rg35xx plus. One (in slot 1) 64 gb already in place and one external (128 gb) in the packet. Both have slightly different numbers of games. Can you please tell me which card to clone? I have cloned the external one. If I clone the in-built 64 gb card, that came already in the slot, and use the new card, will there be any problem?

Worked perfectly

When formatting new sd card what do I set it to for miyoo mini ? Sorry I’m new at this and need some help community

So, when I went to write the created file, (which when I copied it to my laptop, the file was “G”.) the drive that my new sd card was under, was “E”.. I tried re writing it to “G”, and said it couldn’t be found. But when I tried writing it to “E” it started writing everything.. so, is that a problem lol? Because I could’ve swore the original file was “G”… sorry if this is confusing. Just curious as to if I missed something n.. and what it was I missed 🤦🏻‍♂️

Thank you for your help

Thanks this worked

Thank you! Muito obrigado! 🇧🇷

Hi. Can you make video on how to fix rom not detect on stock card. Its there when using retroarch and search manual through folder. And can you show what inside your sd card. I want to what im messing up. Really disappointed when i received my r36s but can play on the go.😔

Like to know what shader that is at the end of the video - looks nice.

Really simple instructions but every time I try using Win32 Disk imager to read the original SD card, The speed starts good until just 2% and then the time just increases instead of going down. It's going below 0.6 MB/s in speed. which is causing it to go up to 10+ hours. Any ideas why this could be and what I can do?

Please help I got sf2000 data frog. I didn't know about disk images writer. I managed to copy all files from there to a folder on my pc. Then the cheap sd card went kaput. Cant read it with a card reader. How do i read the folder on my d drive to write on my sandisk sd card?

Thank you so much

Great video! Subscribed. I'm really interested in an image file of your exact micrSD card that you are using with your RG35XX in the video. Any help providing me with a cloud source file to download and flash for myself would be much appreciated 🙏 bc it looks awesome 👍

On the first step my drive letter is set to F but when I go to format it’s set to D and it doesn’t let me switch it. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know if this will work on the Rg405V?Mine just came yesterday,and I have a new Lexar 256gb from Best Buy..

what if I need to use a larger sd card, this method does not work with that case

Is it normal that if you write the image of a 128g gb it will be 20 hours to clone it when you write it on a new sd card ?

Does this work with an SD card that has a partition in it? Like the OS SD cards?

Does it work for M8 Game Stick 4k Lite

what if i dont know what to call the file for the win32 disk thing? does it matter? what happens if i dont know what to call it

How do you do it on a mac?

Will this method work with the Kinhank X2 Pro Super Console?? Kinhanks directions are very confusing, says need use disk genius on account of the 2 partitions on card, I'm basic PC guy, no idea about all this, I just want to put their tf card content onto a SanDisk card of same size & be able just pop new card into my X2 Super Console & play my games...Thanxs for anyone's help.

First, it is not recommended that you copy the provided SD card from an emulation device and blindly copy it to a new SD card. The ROM and BIOS files included with these emulation devices are questionable to say the least, riddled with bad rom dumps that cause problems with performance, gameplay, crashing, data corruption etc... Your best bet will be to obtain a copy of the latest system image\firmware from the manufacturer and follow their steps to create a stable foundation before you copy over your own curated list of known good BIOS and ROM files. The process will involve formatting the SD card, using third party programs to prepare all of the different partitions and write the system image\firmware to the new SD card, and then there may be further modifications needed like editing configuration files, copying data to very specific folders, and finally copying your ROMs and BIOS files to the appropriate directories. These devices are very complex and capable of doing a lot of things, while being manufactured by relatively small companies at rock bottom prices. No, the experience isn't as easy as a plug&play TV console, but there is no realistic way to provide an easy one click solution for everyone's needs. What you decide to do with your handheld will vary from everyone else out there who buys one. There is a LOT that can be configured and changed.

Perfect, Thank you

I found out something pretty interesting. I have a 1TB micro SD card I wanted to clone. It still has about 500gb of free space. My PC HDD is 1 TB and still has about 600gb of free space so why the heck would disc image tell me I don’t have enough space? Turns out that if your micro SD card is 1TB the disc image software makes a complete image of the capacity of the card and not just what is saved into it. I wish this knew this from the beginning. I figured it out when I did a disc image of at 32GB micro SD with no issues. So I’m obligated to upgrade my PC HDD if I want to be able to clone 1TB SDs even if they are only using 50GB for example.

Assuming you have a 2-card setup where the ROMs are on another SD card, a boot up problem would have nothing to do with your ROM card and everything to do with the system card. The TF2 SD slot only contains ROM/BIOS/Save data etc... and not system data. It's not used to boot the device, only for storing some data.

The secondary card does not have multiple partitions like the system card, so the contents can be copy/pasted directly unless you really want to create a clone image of it. That being said, if it is a no-name secondary card that came with the device and contains ROMs and BIOS files from the device manufacturer, it it strongly recommended that you do not use any of those files because they are unreliable and many do not work (or at best, work, but have glitches, missing data, or poor performance).
