Set SD cards as internal 'adoptable' storage

[monicakm]

Has anyone tried this? Any downside to it?

One of Android Marshmallow's coolest new features is the ability to 'merge' the Micro SD card with the internal storage. This allows the phone to treat the resulting memory as one partition, making it easier to see how much storage you have available.

Unfortunately, Samsung decided it wouldn't be supporting this feature with the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, even though both handsets mark the return of the much-missed SD card slot. But that doesn't mean you can't overrule Samsung's decision to snub adoptable memory....

It would be a nightmare for 90% of the buyers of this phone who don't understand that they can't take SD card out. And the slower read/write speeds of many over the counter SD cards would lead to performance issues.

It's a cool feature in concept, but I personally would never use it.
