[ubuntu-uk] High Capacity SD cards

[Simon Greenwood]

Mechanically I can't see any reason why not as the cards should be broadly
compatible with any reader although if you're running 32-bit I assume you
have older hardware which might not. However, at the current price I'm not
sure if it's worth it as a backup solution.
