The N900 can read any SDHC compliant cards. SDHC has a maximum volume size of 32GB.

Any SD card higher then that would be SDXC compliant and the N900 can't read that format.

(SDXC maximum volume size of 2TB)

Is the problem with SDXC compatibility related to proprietary filesystem or is there a hardware limitation?

how did you come to that conclusion?
the N900 should read SDXC fine, it's just a matter of the filesystem in use. if you want to use the SDXC card under windows as well, it might be a bit tricky since exFAT for Linux isn't there yet (as far as i know), but if you format the card with ext3 there shouldn't be any problem.

see this thread f.ex.

Well was just cruising and found this thread, just tested my Kingston 64 GB class 10 memory card (model: SD10A/64GB Secure Digital Extended Capacity (SDXC) on my N900 and works like a charm!

And on the topic of .folders, if you're not using a Unix/Linux machine and are stuck on PC/MAC, then you can use Xterminal to copy/move your files and folders on SD card.

First get access to be in root by installing "chroot"

Xterminal Commands:

Code:

1. sudo gainroot

2. cd /home/user/MyDocs/

3. for moving the file/folder to SD card:

mv {file/foldername} /media/mmc1

4. for copying the file/folder to SD card:

cp {file/foldername} /media/mmc1

OR you can use 3rd party explorer softwares to access your files like "CuteExplorer".
