Questions about this item

How much power does the 512GB microSDXC card draw when it runs all day in a Nintendo Switch?

The card is a passive flash-memory device with no moving parts; it draws only the small current supplied by the Switch slot and adds no measurable heat or noise during continuous use.

What must my Nintendo Switch already have for this SDSQXAO-512G-GN6ZK card to work?

A microSDXC-compatible slot running firmware that supports cards up to 512GB; the card itself requires no extra adapter, power supply or software.

Will the UHS-I 100MB/s read and 90MB/s write speeds be limited if I also keep an older UHS-I card in a second Switch?

Each Switch accesses its own card independently, so the older card does not reduce the licensed Pokémon card’s rated read and write performance.
