Hi,

 

Building up a new B+ Pi (already happy with my B version RasPlex Pi)  and want to get the best bang for my buck. What size do you recommend for the MicroSD card?

 

I know the specs say at least 2GB but will extra storage make any difference?

 

Thanks

A 4Gb Class 10 MicroSD is sufficient, no point in spending money on storage as it won't be used.

Wanted to double check…is this still the rule of thumb?
4GB Class 10 MicroSD is still the recommended size for Raspberry Pi 2/3?

Many thanks!

That’s right.

4Gb cards are now harder to find that 8Gb. Both are fine though.

8GB cards are almost for free… its insane… 6$/5€ for a 8GB card… I bought a 16GB though… 12$/10€ …
