Nope. It is formatted as Fat32 and one partition of 128GB.
Cool. So they finally updated the software to handle large partitions.

Near as we can tell the AirSense 11 model machines don't seem to care about size of SD card or format for that matter.
Now the AirSense/AirCurve 10 models did care very much...they didn't like anything bigger than 32 GB for some reason.
When we insert any SD card in the cpap machine it will check the card and let you know if it doesn't like the card for some reason.

Now as to capacity need....probably a 2 GB SD card would be sufficient but those are hard to find and very pricey when found. 4 GB is probably plenty big if someone has one laying around. Save some money. They are getting hard to find as well. Last time I was at WalMart the 16 GB was the smallest capacity I could find.
It's/16 GB for sure more than enough for years and years of stored data. The machine would likely wear out before the card got full.

There is zero need to go out and purchase one of those huge capacity SD card (they aren't cheap) but if someone has one laying around for whatever reason....it can sure be used in the AirSense 11 models without extra work. Now with the AirSense 10 models...it can still be used but will require extra work formatting.

To give everyone an example of card storage vs card usage.
I just now checked my 8 GB SD card from my machine...and there's almost 3 years of data on it...and I have used 1.9 GB.

Huge capacity SD cards aren't needed but if someone has one laying around by all means use it and save some money but don't go out an pay a high price for a huge capacity card because it won't be needed.

Your choice...your money.

Agreed, I think an 8GB is a great compromise. 16, 32, 64, 128 GB way overkill. Get the cheapest SD Card available but don't exceed 32GB if you have an Air 10.

I have a little more than 4 years stored (Since March 22, 2018), uses 5.8 GB
