Prevent Early Ware on your microSD Slot
Updated: Sep 13, 2021
Get your Micro SD to SD Card Extension Cable on Amazon here: https://amzn.to/3nf6nle
The micro SD port on the Ender 3 stock board, or even the BIGTREETECH boards, can break loose with repeated use.
To take the stress off the micro SD port, I suggest using a Micro SD to SD Card Extension Cable. With this adapter, you can use an SD card instead of a micro SD, and you only have to plug the adapter in once. Using the adapter will significantly improve your experience when transferring prints to your printer.
TIP
There are several great modes you can print to enclose and support the Extension Cable on thingiverse. The one I used is here: https://www.thingiverse.com/make:592457
