SD card question

I have a fairly early DI 5 MK2 module which uses a normal SD card- from what I read it sounds like Micro SD cards are now being used?? The first card was faulty but replacement is fine as is a duplicate which I've made up.

My question is how far should the card pop out when you're taking it out? Mine does have the spring action to eject it but the card only comes out flush with the casing so I have to use a thin tool to grab it and pull it out. This doesn't feel right to me, just wondering if it should come out further?

Hi!

The SD card does not pop out too far....so in some cases I am afraid that you need a tool to get it out. As user of many cards and exchanging information...I am using a 25 cm SD card cable extender to be faster changing cards. (Like the one included in this pack https://zourman.com/product/2box-64gb-card-mod-kit/ )

Your spring is worn out.

My SD card adapter ejects at least 3mm from the casing. It's tricky to insert as well. The length of your fingernail often dictates whether you can do it without use of some tool.  ;)

Thanks for the replies. It's actually been like this since I got it but I didn't think too much of it' as I don't take it out much. The spring definitely works but only gets it flush definitely not 3mm. Seems like a design oversight. I might just glue a little extension piece onto the card.
