-If you use a notebook, please bear in mind most notebooks do not feature microSD card slot. For flashing the OS, you will thus require either a suitable SD card adapter or a USB adapter. A suitable microSD card can be purchased on [[https://www.unipi.technology/memory-cards-c33|the Unipi e-shop]].

-For trouble-free **Mervis OS** usage on Unipi Neuron controllers, you will need a microSD card with a capacity of **at least 2 GB**. \\
+<WRAP center round important 90%>
-If you choose a different platform, we recommend using a microSD card with **at least 4 GB** capacity \\
+**Caution!** \\ Extreme caution is essential when choosing a disc. Selecting the wrong storage medium could result in data loss on a storage other than the desired one /*(SD card /USB flash drive)*/.
-We always recommend using industrial SD cards.
