64GB eMMC Module
FriendlyElec offers eMMC modules in sizes of 16/32 /64GB. If you are using a Mico-SD card to load your SBC operating systems, you might find this option slower compared to storing all data on an eMMC chip that has faster reading/write speeds and also affects the boot-up process of your SBC.
This eMMC Module is compatible with all FriendlyEelec NanoPC & NanoPi boars equipped with an onboard eMMC socket. It comes with an elbow shape type connector that connects to the SBC eMMC module socket, and we definitely recommend buying this item if you want to maximize your SBC performance!
(Compatible with NanoPi M4 / NanoPi NEO4 / NanoPi K1 Plus)

MicroSD to eMMC Adapter
Designed to work with FriendlyElec eMMC Modules. The idea behind using this type of adapter is mostly to make it more simple for the user to burn data on the eMMC just like burning the system files on a standard Micro-SD Card. Because the eMMC module is also detectable from the SBC socket, you can always switch modules with different operating systems by disconnecting them from the SBC socket, saving you the hassle of burning new images.
