Official Raspberry Pi A2-Class SD Card 64GB

Works with all models of Raspberry Pi old and new, including Raspberry Pi 5,  Pi 400, Raspberry Pi 4 Model B, Raspberry Pi 3 and Raspberry Pi Zero.

We only recommend the official Raspberry Pi MicroSD card for use with Raspberry Pi boards due to their reliable quality, fast A2-class speeds.

Why are A2-Class Micro SD Cards better for Raspberry Pi?

Class A2 cards offer exceptional random read and write throughput across the entire range of Raspberry Pi computers, and when used on Raspberry Pi 5, support 'command queueing' for even higher performance!

Raspberry Pi 5 incorporates hardware features which allow it to make the most of this extra performance**.

If you want to read into the technical reasons behind this (including CQHCI, command queueing (CQ) mode, meta-ops and other such fun) - check out Raspberry Pi's announcement blog post which gets right into the detail!

Features

• This is the 'hard drive' and operating system for your Raspberry Pi
• Extended partition to make full use of the SD card
• Ready to use – plug it in and you’re ready to go
• Only the most current stable release of Raspberry Pi OS will be used
  • We install a 32-bit version of RPiOS on these cards for compatibility with all Raspberry Pi models**
• High-quality, official Raspberry Pi Micro SD card for the Raspberry Pi
• Official Raspberry Pi product
• Pre-imaged and delivered in individually sealed bags
• A2 class micro-SD cards with support for DDR50 and SDR104 bus speeds and command queueing (CQ) extension 
• Random 4KB read performance
  • 5,000 IOPS (Raspberry Pi 5, SDR104)
  • 3,200 IOPS (Raspberry Pi 4, DDR50)
• Random 4K write performance
  • 1,200 IOPS (Raspberry Pi 4, DDR50)
  • 2,000 IOPS (Raspberry Pi 5, SDR104) 

**Whilst some models such as the Raspberry Pi 4 and 5 can make use of (and benefit from) a 64-bit system, we sell these cards with a 32-bit OS for full compatibility across the range of boards available. It still works perfectly on all models, however you may want to re-write a 64-bit OS for full performance and features on Raspberry Pi 5 and 4.
