    iMac (24-inch, M1, 2021) and sd card

    My 2017 Mazda Cx 5 has an SD card for the GPS updates. However as we know my iMac (24-inch, M1, 2021) doesn't have an SD card reader to do the update. Since the only card I will be updating will be that item, what works best ?

    SD Card slot stopped working on Early 2015 13" MBP

    I'd given up on this issue a long time ago and have been using SD-to-USB converters, but thought it was worth a shot again. 
 At some point in the last 3 years, my SD Card port completely gave up on my Early 2015 13" MBP and never worked again. I'm not sure when it exactly, but I believe it...
