Hardware SD Card Slot Read Errors

[pcwizard7]

My switch gets sd read errors when

1. boot hekate it would have black screen for while then kick into hekate
2. hekate a message "sleep module missing" and when i try to go into launch it has "sd card missing make sure it inserted and use default settings"
3. I can get the correct menu eventually
4. I get the boot.dat for sxos until i i get it

I m hoping its just the slot but what do you guys think

thanks

well it turns out my sd card slot is ok it turns out to be a bug in hekate as seen in tweet below. after updating to this fix version my sd card read errors are gone. i did the following 5 times to make sure and no issue

1. turn it on with the payload and screen pop up like it should then it launch then back x5 then turn off and repeat x5
2. boot with sxos payload and boot successfully every time x5

I think because hekate was setting "204MHz SD device clock" it caused read errors since it was scandisk sd cards as stated in patch notes

"hekate v4.10.1 is now released! This is a hotfix version that rectifies: -
Reverted 204MHz SD device clock - Some small QoL changes If you have a misbehaving sd card that uses a sandisk U1 microcontroller, give this version a try!"
