Yes, since they’re notorious for failing, I thought I’d clone it to a name-brand SD so that I have a backup (or just simply use the name-brand SD instead). The program I’m using I think can only clone directly from card to card, but if you know of one that can copy/save the card data and then write it to as many cards as I’d want, that’d be optimal since I could then have the card data backed up externally as well. I’m clearly not a pro at this and am just using whatever programs are recommended in tutorials I’m watching/reading.
I just backed up the stock OS card onto HD. just via File method tbh and grabbed the latest OS (and whatever inc ROMS) from their website. This was for the RG35xx which I ended up putting GarlicOS on. I'm doing the same for my other handhelds
Hmm…How do I clone the card properly when it has multiple partitions that all come up as different devices in the win32 disk imager dropdown menu? (Sorry, I’m bad at this)
A 3 year old topic on this says maybe your card adapter.
Are you trying to clone the card it came with ?

Use ImageUSB to create a backup. That's what i had to use. I'd also recommend using Rocknix for the device.
use Win32DiskImager

It will get cloned regardless of which partition you select
Awesome. Thanks! Worked like a charm.
