Review on Enhance Your Development Projects with the NVIDIA Jetson Nano Developer Kit (945-13450-0000-100) by James Chandran

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Nano ERROR (low power)

I received this unit a few weeks ago and when I turned it on everything was fine. I downloaded the operating system according to the instructions on the Nvidia website and everything went fine. Until I put the SD card in, I turned it on and the first picture above is what I got. I got another SD card and booted the OS again on the second SD card and the second picture above is what I got. I'm not sure what these error codes and crashes mean and there is no description of their meaning anywhere. After some time of checking, I found out that these are TORCHED 2 SD cards, which are NOT recoverable and will no longer be read. I also found out that ONLY NAMED BRAND SD cards are accepted even if the NO NAME brand SD cards are rated for Ultra 10 data transfer speeds. They just burn like the 2 micro center sd cards i tried before using a 32gb sandisk ultra card i had and this time everything booted up and booted up real good. I was NOT impressed with the performance at all, I was expecting at least the same performance as the Shield Pro I have and this version of the Jetson nano 4 Gigabit was nowhere near the performance of the Shield although the specs say what they are target. I was very disappointed but this time I will be sending it back. I might have a weak or broken one in league, but at this point I'll have to wait a while before trying again.

Pros
