Kobo Nia - MicroSD Card Upgrade

In this video I'm upgrading the MicroSD card inside a Kobo Nia.
This also works for most Kobo devices out there.

This instructions to clone the device are below (just replace the X with your device, as explained)

Backup command:
dd if=/dev/sdX of=backup.img bs=4M && sync

Restore command:
dd if=backup.img of=/dev/sdX bs=4M && sync

After these commands you can use gparted or any other tool to resize the last partition in order to get additional storage
