    I got the Sandisk Extreme Pro (V30 U2) (200 MBps pretty quick) and I cant get it to write faster than 14MBps on the Ally WTF?! If you plan on using XBOX Game Pass your card MUST be formatted NTFS @ 4096 sector size or it wont allow you to install games to the card FYI

    Do some research, many people's SD card reader get fried from heat. To add insult to injury, sometimes it fires your SD card as well. Plenty of info about this problem out there, including an acknowledgement by ASUS that this is a problem.
