Maximum MiniSD capacity I can use with Wizard

Hi All,
I have a 512 MiniSD and i want to upgrade. So i wonder What is the maximum capacity Mini SD I can use smoothly with my Wizard. I don't want something to slow the device or make it freeze.
thanks

my 2gb miniSD works fine...£33 too

i am using a 2 gig and it works good

thanks for the reply, do you recomend any specific brand or they are all the same

ATP are supposed to be good--waterproof and claim to be faster than other miniSD cards. I read a few posts here about them a few months ago and bought one--haven't had any problems. I don't have another miniSD card to compare the read/write speed, and I don't make a habit of giving my Wizard a bath so I can't vouch for the waterproofness either...

i bought a sandisk 2 gb. works great for me.

Has anyone try a 4gb or more? I'm thinking of buying a 4gb sd.

There are no 4GB miniSDs yet; right now, the biggest available is 2GB.

No I have 4gb minisd's in stores. Also check newegg.com they sell them there too.

dude there is NO 4gb CARDS for minisd. If so....link me and prove me wrong.

4Gb miniSD being advertised...but are reg SD...
I ordered and received one....after a pretty easy search and finding several.....I was unsure when ordered and, sure enough, now have yet another regular SD card for one of the cameras, etc.
I'm sure they are coming out - and possibly some actually already have them, but at $115 a shot for a flakey, poorly advertised seller (mine was a previously good company, CellMem.com - which I had bought other things from over the last few years - but they sent a regular SD.) (No, I hate sending things back, so I just can store even more sitlls on my camcorder or digicam I don't use enough....)
Hell, none of the physical stores even had the 2Gb mini when I looked and only started having the 2Gb full sized a month back.
Give it six months and we'll be swimming in 150X 4Gb mini's for $80....and the rumors *then* will be the coming 250X 8 or 16....assuming that's feasible, of course - six months later if not....
Now I need to go get a 2Gb and a handful of cheapy 128's, 256's or 512's for ROM backup and "'xperimentin'".....and replace this DINOSAUR 1Gb I have from Circuit City (which you couldn't get 18 months ago... ) )

OEM Brand 2gig MiniSD here works great too and at $34, works real good. 4gigs comming soon I am sure.
Just wish the developers of WM5 software made better use of the storage.

Transcend 2GB (80x / SLC) works great just out of the box (no format needed)!
Same Transcend 512MB (80x / SLC)...

See? There ya are! The price is incredible too - $45ish
bought singly (much less than price for 1Gb in even cheaper stores).....things change so fast....even the mfg doesn't list those or even the 2Gb!
http://www.adata.com.tw/adata_en/product_detail.php?ProductNo=106
....notice they also didn't even change the labels on the package all the way - hope it isn't a "Photoshop New Offering" hehehe - the pic still shows 60X, not 150X...
Has anyone used these guys before themselves? The names are so familiar with so many of these...
I guess I'll give one of these a try - maybe throw in one of their cheapy 4Gb ipodoids too.....
....why oh WHY! couldn't I have just stuck with buying cars and guns and parts and accessories for those! - now back into electronics!!!!

Dang, someone just got told.

What Memory should I use on Kaiser?

Hi guys, I am trying to buy a "SanDisk Mobile Premier 2GB Micro SD high speed", I believe it is fit for Kaiser, right?

Yep that'll work fine; be wary of buying on eBay as many tend to be fakes. Buy from a trusted reseller. I have got a 6GB for less than £40 delivered.

If your in the US, you can get great deals @ newegg.com
I purchased my 2gb microsd for 19.99, and 3 day ups is standard shipping.(costs like 3-5 dollars, on some cases its free shipping)

it supports cards over 2GB (Micro SDHC); i have a 2GB Micro SD for now, waiting for a 10-15GB model of the SDHC's to come out so i can dump all my music on it and ditch my iPod

dunno where ive got this from but i think/heard/got the vibe that the kaiser can only support up to 8gb sdhc?

that's great, I was think about a 2GB one but seems like it is not enough? Does Kaiser a good music/video player?

i get maybe 45 minutes out of a charge on the iPod anymore; it will permanently reside in my car soon enough. Dont get me wrong, the iPod is great and all, but pocket space is at a premium for me, and between wallet, cell/PPC, keys, iPod, ciggs, lighter, and PassCards my pockets are stuffed. If 8GB is the most the Kaiser will support, then so be it.

By the way here comes a new question, I found that all micro SDHC are come with CLASS 2, that means 9mb/s on reading and 5mb/s on writing... a little bit slow? It that necessay to buy a MicroSD Ultra II ?

up to 32 GB sd card in ATT Tilt
DLD

if you have a 1-2GB micro SD card now, i'd wait a while unless your dying for memory space; they are bound to up the read/write speeds and lower the prices. I teach digital photography, a few years back read/write speeds of memory cards mattered a LOT, nowadays most D-SLR's have a huge cache so a superfast memory card isnt such a big deal, and the prices are fairly decent. My bet is in 6 months an 8 gig Ultra II Micro SDHC shouldnt be more than $60.
thats great to hear RacerX10; even 10-15GB should effectively mean i dont need to drag my laptop and iPod everywhere; 32GB means pretty much ALL my media with me.

SDHC spec is up to 32gig, today the max you can actually buy is 6gig. By the time you can actually buy a 32gig, we'll be using different phones like TyTN III

6GB Micro SDHCs are available - Sandisk seems to be th eonly real supplier at this moment. I'm sure others will have theirs out soon too. I just bought one from www.mydigitaldiscount.com in the US. Got it with no issues, and I've filled 4.5GB of it with music and video.
8GB MicroSDHCs are targeted for release probably around the end of the year. Again, Sandisk will be the first supplier.
No one has even announced an official "coming soon" statement for anything bigger than 8GB yet.

Kaiser is a real good video player(Using TCPMP), but it also depends on the format.
My favorite, and In my opinion, the best format is .m4v (You may need a special convertor for that)
Other formats are either 2 big, or has really choppy playback.
Also you should increase your font and glyph cache to 32768 (makes things more responsive/ smoother)

the SDA SD Card Association has never quite said the 'maximum' size of a Micro SD; there is a theoretical maximum of 32 GB, hence the 'limit' at the moment, which IMO means merely a new 'type' of SD card in a year or two. as for hardware that reads them, there likely is a maximum size they can read.
Currently Samsung has an 8GB Micro SD in development, Kingston and Sandisk are sure to be right behind anyways. besides, its just a memory card; i have piles of 128MB Memory Stick Pro Duo's that i bought for my Sony S710a when it first came out, and 128MB was still a fairly sizeable card for a cell phone; now we're talking 6-8+ gigs...

That's great advise, I used to play .AVI with TCPMP and it works fine but haven't try to increase the cache, due to my Vario I is limited by its memory

Do we think a 16Gb SDHC card would work?

This is sorely tempting - never have to use the MD again and still have plenty of spare space!!
http://uk.gizmodo.com/2007/12/09/transcend_crams_16gb_onto_tiny.html

Sweet!! Last year 1GB was mainstream, now it's 2GB but it's raising very fast.
I'm waiting on 8GB to be in store, but 16GB sounds more interesting.

No, I don't think it would work. Our device is only capable of accepting either the MicroSDHC (with an adaptor) or MiniSDHC.
SDHC's physical dimension is too large to be slotted into our device.

you can get a convertor from sd to micro sd its being on these forums before but this is a good price for anyone looking at the shift to improve batterylife and increase storage for that as it uses sd as far as i remember

Let's hope it's not too distant in the future.

converter from sd to micro or mini.. google search just comes up with mini to sd adapter, ie wrong way round. im getting an athena, and i dont need the space, but would be cool to have the possibilty of paying 60 quid for 16 gb of storage.
and to think, 2 years ago, november 2005, i got a 2gb ms pro duo for my psp and k750 for 80 quid in singapore, when 1gb were 100 quid.. now look lol

should work if it comes in our size miniSD or microsd w/adapter.kaiser is rated up 32gb and i think the athena is the same.

I did find one once from a no-name mfr in China or Taiwan. It was basically a Mini-SD card with a flat ribbon cable coming out of it into a PCB that had an SD adapter on. I assume it would work, but looks like it would break apart within 5 mins. And added to the fact that you would have to leave the flap open on the athena compartment.

Not quite 16GB yet, but the 12 GB microSDHC is already out. See this thread:

My understnading is that 32 gb is the limit of the current os. Once we upgrade to wm7 this will no longer be applicable.

32gb is the official purported maximum capacity of the sdhc standard, though this 'wall' may be lifted in future (2terabytes if you believe wikipedia). It is certainly not os specific.
I think 32 gigabytes of data storage should be overkill for most people anyway. It seems many people have ample media and software on their microdrive and still have 50 percent left, though if my ssd vs sdhc poll is to be believed some people would like 64gb of storage on their Athenas: whilst this is all good for showing off, in real terms such a large amount of storage would be fairly pointless to the average joe. Only video files could realistically swamp such a chasmic void of memory and who really wants to keep films they've already watched on their hard drive (unless of course it's a particularly good film)?
This principly applies to any phone, pda or multimedia device. One use for which i do propose to use a 32gb sdhc is in my eee pc. Provided the write speed of a class 6 card is fast enough i will use one to install xp and give me the extra space for program files and dowmoads that i crave

32GB is the maximum native partition size for window ce 5.0.
32GB is actually not difficult to fill once you start collecting musics, pictures and videos in a serious way. How big is iPod's biggest storage? Larger than 32GB I think. If I have that much space, I would convert all my old CD's and put all my CD in storage for good (may be will bury it for 200 years and have it sold as antique for a fortune then ).
Pictures is another story. It can only grow. I seldom want to delete them ever. My children's photo, no matter how old, must be kept for ever.
Another thing that I must mentioned is the video capture requirement. If you use your video camera, you will notice how quickly the disk storage get used up.
I won't be complaining about having too much disk space for this reason.
I still remember those early days when all we had on our IBM PC was a floppy and could'nt fantom why anyone could use a 10MB harddisk that cost $15,000. When my boss acquired a 100MB notebook, we all said he was insane because nobody should ever need so much space. Then, he went 1 GB! That was unthinkable. I'm seeing the same thing here. When the space is available, we will somehow find use for it, may be slowly, but surely.
May be 5 years later, we can look at this post again, and see if this is true

I agree space, however big can slowly be filled up for being social beings, one way or the other, we will be sentimental on things which we hold dear to us regardless how junk it may be for some other people.
What we are actually seeing here is the old evolution of storage space coming to life all over again. Different it may seem right now because of the difference in medium and usage but I agree with Eaglesteve. It may sound insane now but five years from now, it may look funny not just to us but to those that will replace us that we even talk about these things.
The beauty about having billions of people in this world is that in terms of economies of scale, it is faster to develop technology for everyone to use. Even if a small percentage will adopt a certain size of storage, it is already enough to make it economical for every one to use.
Even if there is a limitation in the OS that we are using right now, who's to say that it will not change in the future. It used to take MS 5 years to develop a new version of the Win CE OS. We have seen how fast Win CE evolved and we already have 1 whole version upgrade every 2 years or so. Every 6 months MS announces an aku upgrade on certain new devices. For me this is very good news, for the average joe this is nothing because he doesn't really care. His only concern is being able to use what he has. Actually the average joe is afraid of change. He wants his life to be better but is afraid of the sacrifices needed to make it better.
We, along with the minority are at the forefront of technological evolution. We are the early adoptors because we have the foresight to see the possibilities technology has in store for all of us. If we stop and become complacent, we will become the average joe and eventually get buried in the mass of zobies or sheep that the average joe really is.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion however crazy or educated they may be. However, an opinion may be shared by not just one or two but also by millions or maybe billions. It maybe that the average joe for now may crave for 8G storage whatever the medium. It may also be that people like leoni may think Asus eee may be a good replacement for the athena. But let us not forget, there are many more not voicing their opinions on this or any topic in and outside the forum.
The vocal ones maybe the catalyst for now but it is the masses or those affected by the mass marketing campaigns of businesses that will ultimately decide the future. Let us not forget though that for there to be a future for every one, we, the visionaries and early adoptors must constantly look choose for the best out there for us and influence others to our thinking. In doing so, we ensure that there will be a future for what we believe in. This is the essence of a forum. This is the reason we are here but then again, this is just my opinion.

Looking for fast (read/write) 16gb USB flash drive

As the title states
I used to have an A-data PD7 8gb, that thing was rude fast dam lost it though . I replaced it with an A-data S805 8gb, was nowhere near as fast but was okay but my girlfriend wanted it, so I gave it to her and bought myself the 16gb version of it. But the 16gb version is even worse than the 8gb version, when near full capacity the drive write performance is shockingly bad and i think the read performance is erratic at best.
So I'm looking for a good 16gb (or even 32gb) fast read/write drive, have had a look at a few reviews but they're no substitute for real world tests, so I want to here about what drives you lot have and if they're any good.
Oh if I could find a 16gb PD7, I'd buy it lol.
I want something that performs like this: (My really old A-data PD7 4gb - the 8gb performed roughly the same)

I am using an USB flash drive of Sandisk and I am satisfied. There are some more in the market like OCZ and Corsair. Both have drives of 16GB capacity though they each look very different. Corsair went with the more standard approach of a normal looking flash drive. OCZ on the other hand went with a tapered credit cards style drive that is intended to fit into your wallet.

kingston are also ok

Anyone got any data to backup their opinions?

Would love to get Buffalo Type R 16gb (http://www.buffalo-technology.com/p...es/ruf2-rs-super-high-speed-usb-flash-type-r/) but they are far too expensive and by all accounts quite a big bulky USB drive.
The new esata/usb (http://www.ritek.com/p2-pro4-eSATASSD.asp) devices look quite good but they are still in their infancy and a little to big to put on my keys

not bad, lil pricey
but can you open/stream music from inside of media programs? instead of having to go to a browser and select a file from the http://usb address do you know?

If the program has the capability to play from a network source i dont see why not. as it should just see it like you would a nas through a router at home.
Been looking at the seagate satellite portable too. Only thing that's putting me off is whether the wifi will be quick enough to stream 1080p movies and im not 100% confident in that.

ok i see that one comes with an app, sweet
but $200 is a bit too pricey
i bought the 16gig version, so $100 is my limit(since it costs $100 more to get the 32 gig version) to get more than i would if i had got the 32gig version

Yeah thats my thoughts although 500GB of external storage!
Going to try and make something to go straight from micro usb to micro sd first then may come back to this.

Have been looking at going this route since the day they released the Nexus 10. There are 3 options out there currently, with the Seagate wireless HD being one of them. The other option/s are by Patriot. They came out with a 320GB version as well as a DIY wireless HD enclosure for $99 that you can buy your own 2.5" optical or SSD and supports up to 2TB.
I think i am going to go the Seagate route and pick up a 256GB or larger SSD over the black Friday/cyber Monday weekend coming up. The one perk that has me leaning towards the Seagate route as opposed to just getting the Patriot wireless enclosure and SSD is the hacked software that this group puts out specifically for the Seagate drive. They have a lot more features and functionality that they have added over the basics. Not to mention they are constantly keeping the software updated and adding new stuff. I contacted them already to see if their software would work on the Patriot enclosure and was told that it would not due to the fact that the Patriot drive and enclosure were not available worldwide.
I have included the links to the Patriot enclosure, Patriot 320GB wireless HD, and the aftermarket Seagate software websites.

I have the SeaGate Satellite (500 GB) and in all honesty, its one of the BEST purchases I've ever made. I initially bought it for my wifes iPad, expanding 64 Gigs to 500+ for $200 was more than worth it in my opinion. I store EVERYTHING on this drive, and stream my movies, etc from it. It really is awesome. And now that I finally got around to picking up the SeaGate Thunderbolt adapter, I use that to QUICKLY load files onto it. The only problem that I had was that, initially, if you connected to the Satellites WiFi, you couldnt get an internet connection. Seagate recently released a F/W update that allows you to connect to a live internet connection and the drive at the same time. So the one issue I had with the drive has been resolved. I love my drive!

Thanks for the info. I will try the micro sd first but will consider this if it goes tits up!
theres also a kingston and trascend one available, with ssds.

Very interesting. Could you explain how this works? Does it mean I can browse the internet and access the HD at the same time? Is the HD only accessible via an app and NOT as mass storage USB?
This may be a great option for N10 owners.

The seagate looks fantastic, with a battery life to almost mirror the N10 (plus it can jut be sat plugged into the wall if needs be )
A touch pricey at £130, but seems like it would be worth the money over a limited OTG option which would allow small amounts of storage or the hassle of many cards. Also means no possibility of damaging the microusb socket accidentally, nothing to plug in, and it can just sit in a bag if on a bus or train or whatnot and link straight up. Should get paid on sunday. Hmmmmm

A touch pricey at £130, but seems like it would be worth the money over a limited OTG option which would allow small amounts of storage or the hassle of many cards. Also means no possibility of damaging the microusb socket accidentally, nothing to plug in, and it can just sit in a bag if on a bus or train or whatnot and link straight up. Should get paid on sunday. Hmmmmm

haha, this is my dilemma! If i haven't successfully built anything by my pay day, next Friday i may splash for this!

Took advantage of some SSD deals this morning that should be here by Monday. So far I have not seen the Seagate drive go on sale and believe me I keep checking lol. I am waiting till Cyber Monday to see if the price drops at all. If not I might make the purchase this week. Then I'll be swapping the SSD in for the 500GB optical drive that it comes with and installing the hacked software from http://www.hackseagatesatellite.com/. Later I am thinking about possibly matching the specs on the battery and replacing it with a higher capacity battery, although switching to the SSD should increase battery life due to the fact that they draw less power than a traditional optical HD. I have not been able to find any good info on the exact battery specs so I am going to have to wait till I take the unit apart. Might end up having to build a new enclosure for it, but imaging 12+hrs or battery life (Really happy to be technically inclined)
I will keep everyone posted on my progress.

Also on newegg and bestbuy for the same price.
Anyone have any comments on the transfer speed? Stock vs hacked firmware?

Just got my Seagate go flex mobile satellite hard drive from new egg. They have it on sale for 99$! About $115 after taxes n shipping from US to Toronto Canada! This is going to be great expansion of storage! Also, I saw a YouTube video and this guy actually open the drive up and swap the 500gb HD to a much bigger size like a 2TB SSD. Check out His video. Can't post the kink cause its my first time posting. But search on YouTube for "how to replace the HDD for goflex satellite".
P.S. Loving my nexus 10!

Anand has reviews on the Patriot, Kingston, and Seagate devices. Sounds like they all have their limitations. I'm close to pulling the trigger on the Patriot BYOD enclosure and throwing an old Intel 160GB SSD in there.
