Remote micro-sd card?

[asiamex]

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has come across a way to remotely extend access to the micro-sd card for the Pi? The application would be if you have your Pi in a difficult to get to area, you could still access the micro-sd card. I'm talking about the onboard one, not one using a USB adapter. Perhaps this could be done with a type of male adapter for the Pi side.
Thanks

What are you hoping to achieve, and what do you think is the impediment?


Assuming the use of the recommended and supported Raspbian Buster Operating System, the running operating system has full access to the content of the microSD card from which it is booted.

To do this remotely, simply access the target RPi over a network connection via ssh or vnc. https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentati ... te-access/

There are plenty of remote SD card extenders around.

Try searching "sd card socket extender"

These are popular for some 3D printers.
You can use one a full size SD card socket on the remote end and use a micro to full SD adaptor as supplied with many microSD cards.

Here's one from RPi distributor Pimoroni:

you want flexible or rigid type?

Thanks all, I found the flexible remote extender on Amazon. Should have checked first, but I didn't think there was such a thing.
