How to Increase Roku 3 Player Memory with a Micro SD Card

If you’re a Roku 3 user, you may have noticed that the device doesn’t have a lot of internal storage. This can be problematic if you want to install a lot of apps or games. Luckily, there’s a way to increase the Roku 3’s memory by using a micro SD card.

How do I Install a MicroSD Card for my Roku 3 Player

  1. Purchase a micro SD card that is compatible with the Roku 3. The best way to do this is to buy a Roku-branded micro SD card, which can be found on the Roku website or at most electronics stores.
  2. Insert the micro SD card into the Roku 3’s memory slot. The slot is located on the back of the device, next to the HDMI port.
  3. Once the card is inserted, go to the Roku 3’s settings menu and select “Storage.” Here, you should see your micro SD card listed as a storage option. Select it and then choose “Format.” This will format the card for use with the Roku 3.
  4. That’s it! Your Roku 3 should now have increased memory capabilities. Just keep in mind that any apps or games you install on the micro SD card will only be accessible from the Roku 3; they won’t be available on other devices.

Which SD Cards Work with Roku 3 Player

The Roku 3 is compatible with micro SD cards up to 64GB in capacity. This means that you can store a lot of media on your Roku 3, including high-definition movies and TV shows.

There are a few things to keep in mind when choosing a micro SD card for your Roku 3. First, make sure that the card is rated for at least Class 4 speed. This will ensure that the card can keep up with the demands of high-definition video.

Second, try to find a card with UHS-I support. This will give you the fastest possible transfer speeds, which is important when streaming media.

Finally, make sure that the card you choose is compatible with your Roku 3. Some cards are not compatible with the Roku 3’s hardware, so it’s important to check before you buy.

Most commonly used and recommended brands of SD cards for Roku 3 are Samsung, Kingston, and SanDisk. All of these brands make high-quality cards that are designed to work with the Roku 3.

Can I Transfer a Micro SD card to Another Roku Player

Yes, you can. All you need to do is format the card for use with the Roku 3. This can be done through the Settings menu on your Roku 3.

Once the card is formatted, you can transfer files to and from it just like you would with any other storage device. Just keep in mind that the Roku 3 can only read cards up to 64GB in capacity.

Also, keep in mind that the Roku 3 only supports micro SD cards. You cannot use a standard SD card with the Roku 3.

Do I Have to Format the Card When i Change Roku Player

If you want to use the same micro SD card in another Roku player, you will need to format it for use with that player. This can be done through the Settings menu on your Roku 3.

You can keep the files on your micro SD card when you format it for use with another Roku player. Simply select the “keep files” option when prompted during the formatting process.
