I knew it wasn't either the double clocking or using all four lanes, I 
just didn't know what it was called and was too lazy to dig out the SD 
protocol spec.

But now I pulled up the spec and it's saying that it's UHS cards that 
support the modes that use the lower voltage and there are seven bus 
speed modes:

DS (Default Speed)
HS (High Speed)
SDR12
SDR25
SDR50
DDR50
SDR104

DS and HS use 3.3V signaling while the SDR and DDR modes use 1.8V.  Then 
UHS-II adds a couple more modes.  SPI mode is separate from all of this, 
something just tossed in there for us hobbyists to play around with.
