PocketBeagle 2 Recommended microSD Card

I’m wondering what is the maximum microSD card size I can use with the PocketBeagle 2, and can anyone recommend a specific card?

Just get something reliable. On the Capacity, Performance, and Reliability of microSD Cards – Matt Cole

What would be interesting to know is if there is a maximum speed class the PB2 takes advantage of. SD Standard Overview - SD Association
Or in other words: if I procure SD Cards up to which speed class should I bother comparing?

There’s only 8 pins… So…

High Speed and UHS-I : 8 pins

One thing I only found out recently - apparently SD cards from different manufacturers can have different power consumption - so if your application is power sensitive it might be worth looking up the power consumption data or measuring the power consumption for SD cards from different manufacturers.
