thanks...

you going to be looking about £100 for a start

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=640218
Indeed, expect £100, release in April, class isn't announced yet but I guess it will be 2 or 4 max.
So you should be looking for 2x16GB instead.

whats the use of 2x 16gb when theres only one microsd slot?

You swap em round

I'm looking for a 1tb card, I've got about £3 is that okay?
someone get me one! Bah HTC will have to fix this... etc etc

I have a 16GB Class 6 and find it helps keep every interaction on the HD2 snappy. I install all of my programs on the card and play large movie files (600mb-1.8GB).
Swapping between all these programs and movies and phone calls etc really flies. I originally tried a 2GB class 2 and a 4GB class 4 and found they were ok but not as responsive when you had lots going on.
So my choice was 8GB,16GB or 32GB class 6. The price hike between 16GB to 32GB was significant and the steps between the loweer capacities were quite close so I went for the highest capacity card I could afford.
If you look around you can get them at "reasonable" prices.
The added advantage of a class 6 is when I plug the card into my PC I can transfer large (movie) files quite quickly and the speed difference is more noticeable when doing this on lower class cards.

LOL £3??? is there a free one available?

actually i'm happy with my kingston 16gb class 10 card
was sceptic at first but it holds up to what they say min 10mb/s transfer

you will be lucky to get a 32gb for around 50 to 60. i have 10 sandisk 32gb microsd for £65 each on order from HK and genuine. These retail for 80 - 90 in the uk. Not sure how much the trade is in the uk (unless i check supplier details) but the profit margin on memory cards is extremely small.
For the money your willing to spend you are better of doing what someone else suggested and that is using several 16gb cards.

32gig..... £95! what do you need that much memory for!?

Class 10 or 6
HELLO Friends
i would like to know whats the difference bet the class 6 or class 10 memory card?
& for 16GB card, what u prefere? (i mean which mark)
thanx a lot

fards
That is hilarious, I was laughing for ages! How true it is though.

WOW, why would you need so much pron on your mobile ? LOL.

i heard someone posting about pr0n?
where is it? are there girls in it?
<°(((<

set aside the childish remarks from members the same question could be asked about your hard disk in your machine, why do you have a hard disk larger than a few GB, why bother going 500GB, 1TB+ etc. The same answer applies to having a larger memory card, but for example TomTom maps of europe and america can be larger than 10GB alone, music collection can be large and some people like to use their phone as mobile storage instead of hotswapping usb pens.
I have filled up my 16gb memory cards with just that music (because i like to use my phone as a mp3 player) and the next step from 16 is 32.
DR_ASHK: The higher the class the faster the write speed but this also can be limited by the hardware / software.

Link to the retailer?

No link to supplier and hardly any of them have a web site etc, they are all based in HK Sham Shui Po, Golden Computer Arcade the only place to get good deals and contacts (also where a lot of people see new comp tech stuff out in the wild).

Sandisk 32gb micro SD. Anyone tried it yet?

http://www.sandisk.com/products/mobile-memory-products/sandisk-microsdhc
I'm thinking about getting one, but don't want to drop 200 bucks on it without hearing what others who have gotten one have to say.

What class is it? I just tried finding that information out but couldn't find the specs on it. It it's a class 6 then I would be very tempted to get this. If it's only a class 2 then I will pass.

Am I blind or what lol! Yes, far to expensive for a class 2, and after owning a class 6 card I will never go with anything less.

There AERE NO class 6, 32GB or 16 GB micro SD cards on the market today. (I think its only up to 8GB)

Something has been bothering me for a while now though about a 32 GB class 6. I dont know if we will see one (at least at a "reasonable" price ANY time soon). Think about it. 32 GB is the absolute max the microsd can handle. Device manufacturers are looking into new storage options which should be implemented next year. I just don't know how big of a demand or even incentive there is to release an upgrade to a dying storage medium.

I'm really just looking for more storage space on my phone so that I can put all of my mp3's and vids on there without filling up my card. Class 6 would be nice. Honestly I've never even seen a class 6 micro sd card.

It makes a huge difference when you're transferring files to and from your PC if you have the class 6, much faster file transfer.

Yeah thats why I said I THINK! honestly I been with my 16GB class 2 for a really long time now and did some research on the technology of the 32GB micro SD card, I read somewhere that its not possible for the moment (or something like that when I read it) how ever IF THERE IS A 32GB class 6 or EVEN a class 4 I will Definitely BUY IT!

Samsung 32GB Micro SD
If I am not mistaken, I saw a Samsung 32 GB class 6 online for about $600.00. And I too have read that 32GB is the upper limit for microSD.

I have been using a SanDisk 32GB card for about 1 month now. It says "Class 4" but the transfer rate using WMDC seems a bit slower than it should be (when moving large files). I have since moved files using standard MicroSD reader and have no problem. The [email protected] can handle 32GB. Card is still a bit pricey (you can get 2 x 16 for a lot less).

I have heard RiDATA Lightning Series 16GB is freakin fast it is class 6 for 50 bucks looks like a really good deal.

i just bought one from ebay for $34.99 the seller has 100% feedback and people that bought them says they are good. so ill see if the knockoff works lol. its covered on the ebay buyer protection

Thats not true; sdcard.org/developers/tech/sdxc
2TB is the new limit

where did you guys get the 6 class? price?

If I have to spend $600 on a 32gb class 6 microsd, I'll buy myself an iphone 4 instead.

Sorry Bud, but that's SD-XC, not HC.
It's new tech, doesn't count. :3

First, 2TB is the limit for Micro SDHX I belive, and I don't think any PDAs or phones are set up to use them yet, next generation.
I recently got a Class 2 Sandisk SDHC 32gb at Verizon for $100. It was supposed to be $150 if you didn't have one of their phones (Droid X I belive) but they didn't ask any questions and gave it to me for the cheaper price. Works fine, plenty fast for video etc.
One note, I did try to buy a cheap '32gb SDHC' off thEbay and what I got looked just like the one I got from Verizon but was marked with Class 4. It would format with 32gb but when I tried to load data onto it after about 8-16gb or so it started getting errors. I figure it was one that was tinkered with internally to make it look like 32gb but actually was just a 8gb or 16gb in reality. I got suckered for $25 so beware.
Marc

I ended up picking up a 16gb class 4 Kingston one for 40 bucks that actually works really well and my phone doesn't lag anymore accessing files on my SD card like Music...

MicroSDHC 32GB C2 or 16GB C10?

I was thinking about upgrading from my current Sandisk 16GB c2. As many of you know Sandisk is out with there 32GB c2 MicroSDHC which is selling for $100 by Verizon. But if you look on ebay you can also find other 32gb c2/c4 MicroSDHC from TopRAM and Centon. Now I personally have never heard any of these company so I am very spectacle.
Now my question is which would you go with 32GB c2 or 16GB class c6/c10? To me its storage vs transfer rate.
1) Sandisk 32GB MicroSDHC Class 2 = $100
2) Kingston 16GB MicroSDHC Class 10 = $135

Clearly you should really been far 16GB storage even as decided to use even go want to do look more like 32GB transfer rate?

FYI 16gb class 10 Kingston is $98.99 over @ newegg and if you look hard enough u can find it around $79

I am not sure what you are saying but some claims that the Sandisk 32GB C2 they get around 5mb/s write. So IDK ATM as Kingston 32GB Class 6 is selling for $700 on ebay WTF? Last time I check they didn't even have 32GB class 2, could be fake who knows.

I am aware of that as they been had it for sometimes now but I was more leading to 32GB but who knows if I do decide to go with 16GB I might go with C10 from Kingston.
But has anyone tried TopRAM 32GB Class 4 or Centon 32GB Class 4? If so is it thoughly tested via R/W IOPs and fully chunking the card.

You cant go wrong with ScanDisk
its a safe bet

ilordvader could you test the R/W speed of your card and post back.

So after searching and reading many threads in various forums I came to the conclusion that even class 6 is an overkill so class 10 is out of the question other than bragging rights.
Now has anyone used Transcend or A-Data? they seem to be selling at Newegg so they can't be questionable unknown like TopRAM or Centon which I never even heard of until I was searching for MicroSDHC.
Anyone recommend any 16GB class 6 cards? I am still unsure on not ordering SanDisk 32GB Class 2 as storage is high but the speed is low. As majority of user who running Android port do recommend getting anything over class 2.

Extreme candidates:
Sandisk 32GB MicroSDHC Class 2 - $100 < Storage
Kingston 16GB MicroSDHC Class 10 - $135 < Speed
Are these the only reputable 16GB Class 6 candidates?
A-Data 16GB Class 6 - $53.99
Transcend 16GB Class 6 - $62.99
Lexar 16GB Class 6 - $69.99 < Questionable; produce inferior products
Has anyone heard of these company before?
Centon 16GB Class 6 - $58.99 < Questionable; but listed under Newegg
3C_Pro 16GB Class 6 - $44.99
TOPRAM 16GB Class 6 - $44.99
Team 16GB Class 6 - $44.99

i bought this. Komputerbay 32GB MicroSD SDHC Microsdhc Class 6. £88, which was preety steep.
i get read speads of around 3.5 mb/s and write speeds of 4.5 mb/s, i cant find my 2 speed to compare but it does seem quicker.
though the web site gaurantees minimum 6 mb/s write speeds.
it was amazon so i though it would be ok.
edit.
just tested it again i am getting 6 mb/s read speeds now.

johnwalk did you thoroughly test the card? by formatting and filling it up fully with chunks? if you can confirm its overall performance then I might also order it. Can't wait for other vendors to make it as I need it now. On class 2 card it takes like 30min to just move around 4.5gb now that's way to long for me as I'm always on the go, but thanks for your reply as ill look in to that company.

I don't want to spoil anything, but my HD2 just destroyed my 8GB Sandisk card. 'Luckily' this was not a $100 card, but still.......
Are you shure you want to spent that much, or did you never have your previous card(s) being destroyed?
Wish you goodluck anyway

i just formated it normally the filled it up with music and video still got two gigs left im like a dog with two tails i dont know what to listen to first lol. but the tests i done with it was when it was 28 gigs full only had it two weeks and at first it was slow, especially when you went into the music player it took a few seconds to update but hey a lot of files to browse but its been ok the past few days, but im now at the stage where i dont plug it into my computer anyway i just access my pc and transfer albums by wifi takes about a minute an album, any video usually gets streamed anyway, but wanted a bigger selection when i go on holiday next month.
def recomend this card thougth the first few days i thought i should have gone for the class two, im now happy with it now it all working properly.

I'm at work now and in an hour when I go home ill thoroughly look in to this card and post my finding. As I never even have heard of the company and if I like it ill post feedback here so others can buy it with confidence.
Far as flr goes how did HD2 destroy your card? corrupted the data? or the flash device is unreadable fully? BTW I never needed an flash card before as this is my first smartphone. Also I was welling to spend $750 few months before HD2 was officially deployed in USA. So I'm not worried about $100.
PS: Also have an eye on HD3 as the spec is 90% accurate from my guess after looking at the specs. So let's see what happens as I don't want a device which may have 2 versions, hence EU-Leo512 and EU-Leo1024.

off topic but im seriously looking into the new batch of android tablets which are just coming out now, maybe 7" or 10"

Hope the HD3 is for Att this time

I've got up to 14.7 MB/sec on my 16GB Kingston Class 10.. and my phone works soo smooth now!
Compared android sliding of homepage on my 2GB Class 2 card and my 16GB Class 10 card, and there is some lag with the 2GB card, and none at all (100% realtime) with the 16GB card..
So, personally I'd say; save some exrtra bucks and go for the 16GB Class 10 Kingston one!

@HyperNode
There are several threads here regarding SD cards being destroyed, or whatever description is given to it.
From one moment to another you get the message that you're card has to be formatted. If you accept it, it says something like (only) 30 MB being available, which doesn't get formatted. Your card can no longer be seen by your HD2, nor by your PC or any other cardreader (afaik)
I´ve never had this problem before. It looks like a specific HD2 problem.
Either with or without a combination to a specific brand or card.
I'm very curious about your experiences.
Please keep us updated.
Thanks and goodluck!

Same here. Mythen hd 2 just destroyed my SD card des SYstem ago
It happened already bevor, Thatcher i couldn't See Thema data anymore , but nie i Cantel even Format it anymore

Why would you think it's too good to be true? How much do you think a 32gb would go for?

I bought a 32 gb scandisk from ebay for 29.99 and it works on everything EXCEPT my evo don't waste your money trust me
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk

i wouldn't bother. it's most probably a scam. i bought two of them in the past. they are usually 2gb cards that are rebadged to make them look like 32gb cards. if you tried to put anything larger than 2gb, you get the corrupt card message.

Only reputable company to make 32gb micro sdhc now is Sandisk and there card is rated at class 2. So I would seriously doubt anyone else would sell them for $15 dollar unless we are in the stage where cards are 1tb and not gb. Just use common sense and you don't be victim of scams as you only empower them by doing so.
PS: ATM I'm shopping for real 32gb c4 or 16gb c6 so let's see if anyone else is welling to produce 32gb cards.

Well looking at the feed backs, almost all the ones regarding the MicroSD card were something like:
PayPal unclaimed - requested repayment. Could not repay via eBay, so cancelled
So yah, I wouldn't bother
Also, the seller claims it's class 6 which screams fake/scam

My question is WTF is Kingston and PNY with there own 32gb cards. At least competition would lower the price. I heard people were picking up Sandisk 32gb c2 for $50 of Verizon by scheming them as they still sell for $100 which is much lower than anyone else ATM.

BuyDOTcom (noob users can't post links) has a 3C pro 32GB microSD card for like $120. It's a class 4.
Other than that, I haven't seen much competition at all in this area.
I'm content to wait until later this year for more people like RiData and so.

this fake
98.9% Positive feedback

i have a question:
how does he get so many positive feedback on ebay ?
(i believe too its fake though ..)

I bought one of these from eBay, not from the same person though. It was a 32Gb Class 4, I got it for about £20.
I works fine in laptop card reader. Put it in my HD2, tried copying a large amount of data, which failed, now I have an 8Mb sd card!!
It may not be the way to go.

Here's an equation that I have calculated to help you out.
MC + E = NO
Where MC = Memory card
E = Ebay
NO = No

And now there's a sale on a class4 16gb microSD card:
http://www.buy.com/pr/product.aspx?sku=216757949
$34 bucks is pretty good. Just ordered one myself!

26€ not bad

Well, many of the fake memory cards use host for storage, to fake the large capacity and fast access time.
So when you used it on your laptop, it actually stored all the data on your hard disk. Cool, you thought: it's all working.
Then you used it on HD2, which was impossible for the dodge hack, so it revealed its true nature.

Just installed the new card and swapped over my files. For smaller files, data transfer doesn't seem very different, but large movies definitely seem to transfer faster.

[Q] Micro SCHC card compatability

Want to upgrade the SDHC card in my Hero, and they always say buy as big as you can afford, so I was looking at a 16GB from CompUSA. They have one for $38, but, it's a Type 2. Is there any problem with using a Type 2 card? The type 6 is considerably more expensive, and if a Type 2 will work fine, then I am more than happy buying the Type 2.
Is 16GB too big?
Also, should I simply direct copy everything from my current card over to the new card, or should I start fresh and copy nothing? Not sure if my card is a mess or not, there are some files on there from apps that I no longer have on my device. I mainly want to have lots of room to load different ROM's and room for Nandroid backups.
I do not have a large amount of photos or music on my card, nor do I see myself having a large amount of this type of content in the future.

I currently have a 16gb class 6 adata card in mine. Once the 32gb cards price come down I will look at them. I just copied everything to my pc and than copied to new card. my phone was completely stock at the time
Edit: as far as the class unless you plan on using a2sd feature on a custom rom the class 2 should be fine

Kernels that use ramzswap work better with a class 6 card.... it is a faster memory card... I went with an 8gig class 6 over the 16gig class 2 and use firerats custom partition and have all the space I need
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App

From what I have read a class 6 is what we want for our phones. I currently have a 4 gig class 4, but bought a 8 gig class 6 from ebay yesterday, only $20.

Hey, that's a great price. It wasn't one of those from Hong Kong was it?
I saw many of those on there having very low prices, but, I have purchased that cheap computer stuff from Hong Kong before, and most of it didn't work, and also, took like a month to ship. Not saying yours was, just asking.
Right now, I probably will not be using Ap2SD, so I got an 8 GB class 2 for $18. I'll see how that works out.
Thanks!
