I am wondering if 46.84 KB/Sec write and 47.28 KB/Sec read is the best this board can do, due to the implementation on top of MBED.
I looked at the NANO 33 BLE SPI library. It will be very slow as implemented.
It might be possible to increase the speed but will be tricky and might not work since it would require direct access to the MBED SPI driver, not the Arduino wrapper.
I have ordered a NANO 33 BLE and will see what is possible.

Thanks for looking into this.
And thank you for a great library; I've had the pleasure of using it successfully on a variety of AVR boards.

Hi @greiman
I was wondering if there were any discoveries that can improve the sd card performance for this board?
I found the SPI source for mbedOS: https://github.com/arduino/ArduinoCore-mbed/tree/master/libraries/SPI
Thanks in advance!

You could try editing SdFatConfig.h and set USE_SPI_ARRAY_TRANSFER to one in this section.
/**
* If USE_SPI_ARRAY_TRANSFER is non-zero and the standard SPI library is
* use, the array transfer function, transfer(buf, size), will be used.
* This option will allocate up to a 512 byte temporary buffer for send.
* This may be faster for some boards. Do not use this with AVR boards.

#define USE_SPI_ARRAY_TRANSFER 0

By coincidence, I was recently reviewing my project from last year. Using fresh copies of most of the libraries, I was wondering why a small SD card write was benching at about 130ms. Changing USE_SPI_ARRAY_TRANSFER to 1 reduced the time to 25~30ms. So, thanks for the confirmation.
I'm not aware of any improvements in the Arduino SPI implementation on top of MBED; I get the impression online that there isn't must love for the Nano 33 BLE; the RP2040 seems to be where the interest is.
from sdfat-beta.
The RP2040 is great for a $4 board. I get about 2 MB/sec with SdFat using array transfer. Too bad its ADC has a major fault. Only about 8.5 bits accuracy. Hope the ADC is corrected with new masks to remove the errata. I used the second core and it is nice to have two threads.
I have the Arduino Nano version but have not had time to play with it.
from sdfat-beta.
There seems to be official acknowledgement of the RP2040 issue, so it looks likely that there will be a fix in future versions. I'll definitely explore them then. I've looked at the ESP32, but that apparently has a noisy ADC. The search for perfection continues...

Here are the results running bench using SDFAT 2.0.7 on the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with USE_SPI_ARRAY_TRANSFER 1 and FILE_SIZE_MB = 1. Looking a lot better than my first post above.

Still less than an Uno but acceptable for many applications.
