When set to Mirror Mode, data is written on both SD cards. After failure of either card and replacement of the failed card, the data of the active card is copied to the offline card during the system boot. When Internal SD Card Redundancy is set to Disabled, only the primary SD card is visible to the operating system. This option is set to Disabled by default. Internal SD Primary Card Embedded NIC1 and NIC2 By default, the primary SD card is selected to be SD Card 1. If SD Card 1 is not present, then the controller selects SD Card 2 to be the primary SD card. Enables or disables the Embedded NIC1 and NIC2.
