·     For redundancy and storage use efficiency, install two SD cards of the same capacity on the SD card expander module.

·     If an SD card fails while the server is operating, replace that SD card directly, and then power cycle the server. This replacement procedure ensures that the server can restore the data on the new SD card. Data loss might occur if you replace the failed SD card after powering off the server.
