hello writing to the SD is painfully slow. it is also painfully slow to read large files from the SD card.
External 1TB USB 3.0 WD are dirt cheap. A powered Hub to ensure that the External HDD has required power. I have replaced an x86 box running Debian Linux which was the mail server and DNS server with a RP Pi 2 with a 1TB WD HD. Replaced the Fallover DNS server with another RP Pi 2 with a 1TB WD HD. Reclaimed desktop real estate and reduced the electric bill.
