Using my Clara HD, changing the µSD card did speed up "disk" intensive processes such as booting the Clara HD and sending books and importing them. I could see no difference turning pages even using the kepub fast page turn.

This was last tested using a 128GB µSD card which was tested for small block read/write speeds. A 64GB µSD card I tested had atrocious small block speeds and this showed in any disk intensive operations.

For the sending and import tests, I used a block of 200 books.
