SD card spare part number

[Alexander]

Hi,

Does anybody know the exact spare part number (or a model) of the SecureDigital (SD) card socket used in Raspberry Pi (model B)?

I need to buy the new one to replace the existing which is damaged.

Frankly, I heard many complaints that the SD connector used in RPi is quite unreliable and I personally already had to solder out two broken ones. Unfortunately we cannot find which part to buy as the replacement.

Thanks in advance.

Hi

If you feel it is that unreliable why would you want to replace it with exactly the same part?

I've had mine about month now and have put several different SD cards in and out multiple times without issue.

I tried a few other models of the SD connector and they didn't really fit to the layout. That's why I wanted the exactly the same one.
