Hi,Can CM5 eMMC and TF cards be used together? The Adapter Board used is from HackerGadgets’ uConsole Upgrade Kit.

I only want to use the TF card as a regular storage device. Can it be used with an eMMC card?

I checked, and it seems simultaneous use isn’t supported. Looks like I’ll have to get an NVMe battery panel.😂

simultaneous use is not supported. they use tf card data lanes for the emmc.if you have the hacker gadgets carrier board for the cm module and you bought the new battery board with nvme socket on it. then you could use emmc and nvme.
