Hi, you are right it is recommended to have pull up on those data pins. I looked at the dev kit schematic and also the MMC jedec specification, the pull ups are recommended. Please note however that on D3, the SD simplified specification mention that there is an internal pull up (in SD card) that can be disabled by software.
