Like booting from USB drive, you can turn to a powerful Windows media creation tool named AOMEI Partition Assistant Professional. Yes, you can boot your system from an SD card.


In order to run their own familiar system or other purposes, many users will create a bootable USB drive, but what about the SD card? Can we create a bootable SD card and boot from it? Choose a Windows media creation tool I know it can boot from a USB flash drive, but is it possible to boot an OS from SD card? Perhaps Apple will come out with it's own eHFS+ or something or are we slipping ever further into becoming a Windows PC.I want to boot my familiar OS from another computer. Along with compatability with the new SDXC standard, I hope. Next round of Mac's hopefully should have a flush mount spring release SD reader (to avoid accidents) and to be able to use the SD as a auto file/time machine/bootable clone backup by keeping the SD card inside the Mac nearly all the time. The new SD format/card was just announced, I might repeat.

Ok, that means the new SDXC format just announced by SanDisk using speeds 104-300 Megabytes per second, storage of up to 2TB and exFAT is not supported on these new MacBooks. SD cards that use the exFAT file system are not support, nor are SDIO (Secure Digital Input Output) cards. For example, Class 2 media has a maximum transfer rate of 4 Mbit/s Class 4 media has a maximum transfer rate of 4.8 Mbit/s and Class 6 media has a maximum transfer rate of 45 Mbit/s. The company notes that the new MacBook Pros have a maximum speed of 240 Mbit/s for SD media using the SD card slot, which easily exceeds the transfer rate of most SD media.
