Hi,
Has anyone tried either the Lexar or Patriot 32GB microSDHC card with their Droid/Milestones?
Any issues at all?
Thanks!
Any information at all would be appreciated.
I haven't been able to find any information by searching forums.
I am running Cyanogen 6, 2.2.1, so I should be able to format the 32GB card. I'm just concerned with compatibility issues with the original Droid 1 and the Milestone.
Anyone?
Thanks!
this would be interesting for me too. im searching a 32 gb card which is workin!
yeah, would love to hear something about 32gb goodness too ^^
Yeah I'm surprised that we aren't getting more feedback with this topic.
I've found threads with 32GB cards with EVOs and Droid Xs, but, that's about it.
I think it helps if you manage to get it formatted properly, either on a desktop computer or on your device (if it supports it).
I'm tempted by the Patriot 32GB Class 10, but, some of the people on Newegg seemed to have some issues with it on a their Droid Xs.
Im using a 32gb class 10 lexar microsd in my milestone, so far its working great and have had no problems

Thanks for the feedback!
Do you experience any subjective speed increases with the new card?
Have you run any SD Card speed tests with the card? If not, would you mind doing so and reporting back?
Just wondering if the Milestone will benefit from a class 10 card (or any card greater than class 2).
Thanks again!
i got 8.8MB/s write speed and 12.7MB/s read using antutu system review btw im also using apps2ext and cm7. I dont know by using apps2ext if the benchmark is effected. I was using a 16gb class 2 Kingston card before this and generally haven't noticed much of a speed difference but I mainly use the card for music
Edit: SD tools gets 10.6MB/s writing speed and 14.4MB/s reading speed

Hi,
Thanks for sharing your results. Those performance speeds are quite attractive!
I'm surprised that you you don't feel any subjective speed increases though. I would have thought that when accessing applications stored on your SD card, or when you initially remount your SD card and have to search through media using Gallery, that the difference would have been significant.
Although it is possible that our phones doesn't support much more than Class 2 speeds.
But, at least we know that the Lexar card is compatible with the Droid/Milestone!
Thanks very much for the information!

Class 2 is (roughly speaking) 2MB/s writing speed. Imagine you want to copy a lot of mp3's or a movie (or use it as USB dongle) with 2MB/s. unusable.

Oh sure, I understand that a faster card will make file transfers with my desktop much faster. I guess I was hoping to get more of a performance boost from my phone (ie. Apps2SD) with a faster card.
I'm not sure I'd call 2MB/S unusable for desktop file transfers. But, then again I don't change the music on my phone more than once a month. I can see it being more troublesome if you changed it more regularly. And hey, more speed is always good
Something else to consider - I have an 8GB class 2 card.
Loading angry birds seasons from my SD card = 15 seconds
Loading from internal memory = 9 seconds

Yes, that's a great point. I just don't know if the Droid/Milestone can take advantage of a microSDHC card with a higher transfer rate than Class 2.
Have you tried a faster card with your phone?
Does anyone have any comparison numbers with faster cards and application loading using Apps2SD?
Thanks!

Wow, impressive numbers. I wish the Droid/Milestone had half that performance
Is anyone using the Patriot 32GB with a Droid/Milestone?
With the Milestone SD card which came with the phone (I think this is a UK retail version) "OEM SD SU08G", I got these results:
3.8 / 14.8 MB/s
I added this simply to have something to compare with.
Will edit this image of the results in later: thumbnails37.imagebam.com/12224/fae506122237685.jpg

I get similar results from my no-name stock 16GB card.

Using this kind of sdhc which is c10, try not move the files too much once a time from pc to ms, or it might caused reboot or something else.

Hi,
Thanks for sharing your results!
You're the first person I've heard of who is using this combination. Your speed test results are very impressive.
May I ask you to clarify your comment regarding reboots? Do you mean that if you move large files, or a large quantity of files from your PC to your Milestone, that you have been experiencing reboots? What other issues have you been experiencing?
Have you noticed any kind of speed increase?
Thanks!

In my place, there are many persons who are using this sdhc, so don't worry MS can support it.
In our experenice from our fourm, some MS work great and nothing happened.
But, some MS including my MS have the problem about reboot, app exit when you are using it, if you move a large quantity of files once a time from PC to MS.
There is also a problem from my experenice, not for all others.
My MS could not identify the SD card, or need to format the Sd card.
In this situation, the SD card repairation by some sd format app could be settle the problem, and then the card is back. The information of the repairation shows that there are some unknow link, bad sector, or error link. When I look further, I find the files that often appear above three error message are in the below folders /sdcard/LOST.DIR and /sdcard/LazyList. Thus I think these are the reason why the problem happens.
There is an interesting thing. I have fat and ext partitions in my card, but the partition of ext never has any problems. Last month, I format the fat32 by 64K formation, and it works well so far. (someone prefers 32K)
The speed increase. Yes, but not so significantly. I feel the system is more smooth. The delay when open the app is also less, but you know the speed also involve the size of memory. So, it's haven't extreme different.
Does it help more if I buy a new faster SD card (default card is a Class 2 card), or do optimizations such as this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888379
I'll probably get a Class 6 card, as I haven't seen any Class 10 yet for micro SD.

Yes, faster SD cards do help quite a bit. I used a class 4 for a while and it was noticeably improved for apps2sd on eclair. I got a class 10 for Christmas and the improvement over class 4 was definitely noticeable but not as dramatic. I've read that there isn't much of an improvement between class 6 and class 10 due to hardware limitations inside the phone. For HD video recording I've seen recommendations for class 6+.
Khalpower's optimization script is amazing for eclair. I recommend the JIT, optimized build.prop, overclock and apps2sd. There is also a newer JIT, but I'm not sure if khal incorporated it into his script yet. I think we're still struggling to get the froyo builds to measure up to the optimized eclairs.
Not sure though, I find my XT720 is more compatible with class2 SD cards. I've got one 4GB Class2 Card, one 8GB class2 Card and one 8GB Class6 card which all made by SansDisk. all of these, the most compatible one is the 4GB class2 Card. Although the Class6 card is faster and perform better, there's an issue with stability, where the phone frequently cannot mount the card when the phone is booted.
pls tell your suggestions.

there are class 10 micro SD but the prices are outrageous at the moment.
class 6 16GB is the best bang for the buck right now
the 32GB are still stuck on class 4
looking forward to get some 32GB class 6 when they come out
Thanks for the comments. I think I'll get a 16GB class 6.
32GB microSD are also still pretty expensive (above $100).
Been using the Class 6 for a day now and I can feel speed improvements in loading apps or data from the sd card. I also cleared the factory settings to start fresh.
I've got a class 10 16 GB microSD card for 30 € in Germany, which is about 40 $. I think that's a fair price. I haven't used it yet, so I can't tell you if it is faster or not.

the price cost doesn't match the quality...
it might be an imitation all original class 10 minimum price are over $100+ specially for the 16GB version
seems like they sold you a Class 4 16GB instead
run some test on it, and you'll find out

I'm always hessitant to buy something with that odd of a price/speed ratio. I was actually reading the reviews and found something VERY interesting. There was one person who was mentioning an app called SD Speed Boost that was described as being able to adjust the sd card cache, thus speeding up the read/write speed to the card. It was only a dollar, so I tried it.
WOW...
It has improved the speed of my system 10x. I was skeptical at first, but I realized that if I run SD Tools from the market to test the speed before and after, it shows a significant increase in read/write speed. Obviously, those of us who have apps and cache on our sd card are constantly hitting it and the card's performance will affect performance.
Does anyone else want to tackle this $1 app and confirm my findings? If this is the answer to our slowness problems, maybe the settings that this app changes can somehow be added to our ROMs for everyone to benefit!

Is this the app your'e referring to? My write speed stayed about the same @10.7MB/s but the read speed went from @16 to 23 with a 1MB cache. I don't have any apps on the sd card to verify that aspect of any performance boost but Media Gallery loaded pretty quick.
:Edit: A 2MB cache improved the read speed to 43MB/s

Yes, this is the app i'm using. I've been "field testing" this all day, and I must say that I have never had this type of responsiveness and speed from this phone EVER. I am loving this $1 addition to my phone. I have a class 4 card that seems to be giving me 6mb write/33mb read and that is substantially better. I've tinkered with the different settings and found arount 3000 giving me the best numbers with my specific card. I can only imagine that a different class card would need different settings.

Just installed.
OS: Dexter's 1.3 froyo with bugfix 2
SD Card: Adata 16GB Class 6
Speed Test
Average result from running 3x:
128KB cache: Read: 13.96MBps; Write: 6.63MBps
1024KB cache: Read: 22.40MBps (60% faster); Write: 6.93MBps
2048KB cache: Read: 36.67MBps (163% faster); Write: 6.90MBps
4096KB cache: Read: 33.67MBps (141% faster); Write: 6.90MBps
Interesting. The app seems to increase Read-speed only. I need to find an ideal cache size for optimal speed increase, so far it seems to be 2MB for me.
I'll rerun with my old Class 2 microSD card when I get home.

I think the app is just changing the value in /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb
The default value seems to be 128. You can set the value using e.g.
Code:
echo 2048 > /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb
I have a 16GB Kingston "class 10" (see also complaints about this card throughout XDA--I got it as a gift and I believe it was on sale for $40 at the time).
I've been testing read and write speeds with "SD tools" (free). SD tools writes and reads 190 MB and displays a dial as it goes so I can see that the initial write speed starts pretty high (10 MB/s) and then quickly falls significantly within a few seconds (probably after an on SD card buffer gets filled) eventually stabilizing at 3.3 MB/s. So, clearly this card is not really class 10 at all as it cannot sustain 10 MB/s except for what seems to be a 1 sec burst. As far as read and read_ahead_kb goes:
128 -- 14.1 MB/s read (avg of 3)
1024 -- 22.4 MB/s read (avg of 3)
2048 -- 43.2 MB/s read (avg of 3)
4096 -- 38.2 MB/s read (avg of 3)
Optimal also seems to be 2MB for me.

man!... THANK YOU! i'll try changing that manually and see if there's any improvement
I was hoping that someone would figure out a way to just add this as a default into our ROMs. It was worth a dollar to get this conversation started.
I'm looking forward into upgrading my SD Card, right now it's the default CLASS 2 with 2gb. I pretend to buy a 16gb class 10 one, from Adata.
But I need to know some things first. The only reasons that I want to upgrade is to get more space to install apps, place musics and maybe expand my RAM a little.
So, is it possible to expand my ram? I don't want performance upgrade, it's just that I tend to multitask a lot of programs and my memory runs out really fast.
If so, how much more memory I can allocate on my SD?
Same for apps.
How much big can my apps partition be?
I saw that the recommended limit is something around 1.2/1.3gb, but is there a safe way to expand a little bit further? Or would it make the phone too much unstable?
And also, is it really worth it to upgrade my SD to a CLASS 10 one with 16gb? Or is it just a waste of money?
Thanks for the support and excuse me if I'm asking on the wrong section/way. I found somethings about it but there was nothing too much concrete. :/
EDIT
I just flashed my X8 with the latest firmware and baseband, as pc companion didn't want to install the baseband ..15 nor the newest drivers. Also installed the CM7, dualtouch and all that crap. It already installs apps to the SD and I've noticed a small slowdown on app startup. Would a class 10 sd soft it out?
Up to 200MB on SWAP partition, up to 2GB on apps EXT3/4 (any1 have so many of them???) rest for music/videos etc.
I have made a guide for partitioning the SD with ext+swap (you need AlfsKernel+GDX)
Look my signature
Thanks. But just another question. Is it really necessary to have a Class 10 SD card, or would Class 2 (the default one) slow things down while using swap?
Edit:
Also, a class 10 sd card is way too much expensive for me. I found a 16gb one, class 4 but it's SDHC. Will my X8 read a SDHC?
Everything above (and including) 4GB is sdhc, so yes, it reads them fine. About speed, yes it's important, apps will load faster.. but never amazingly fast. The X8 is slow nowadays, don't expect awesome results. If you are used to class 2 speeds and you buy a class 10 card then yes, you will notice improvement.. Not that much with a class 4. Do you really need a 16GB card? Maybe a 8GB class 8 or 10 would be better if you don't need that much space.
About adding more ram, just forget it
Sent from my E15i using XDA App
I got almost 20gb of just music on my computer, full discography of bands and all. Basically, 90% of the sd will be dedicated to music then But maybe i buy a 8gb one, i just need to stop being lazy and copy only the musics that i want instead of CTRL+A, CTRL+C, CTRL+V it all. Thanks for the help by the way.
So class 6 sdcard is enough for x8?

The bigger the class, the more performance you get, so you would obviously want to purchase class 10 if you can afford it buy the largest class you can get, though I would suggest *at least* 6
But will a high class type make my.device slow in working??

What will you do with your sdcard?
To save music and document, a class 4 is enough. (this is what I use)
If you want to move most of your application to your sdcard get a higher class.
SanDisk make great sdcard if you don't care about money. Kingston is fine. Adata class 10 are great for the price.

This is not true! The class says something about the min performance, it says nothing about the max performance. It is possible a class 6 beats a class 10 card.
So my advice check some tests, where they compare each sd.

get a class 4.
There's a reason why most of the Windows Phone 7s uses an internal class 2 microsd card.
For writing many files onto an sdcard at the same time (lets say while using an app) it would be faster the lower the class.
But obviously a higher class would let you write a single file faster, but with a class 4 you could easily record HD video on your Optimus Black with no lag at all.
Save the money and get a class 4.
Thanks guys for ur suggestions..

I'd prefer the 10 if i were you,and I have a 16gb c10 right now
Higher class = no problem till now
I't classy enough though
Sent from my heart into yours
Never heard about higher class card using more power. Unless you keep allot of apps on the sd there shouldn't be issues. The higher the class the shorter will be the response time and higher the read write speed.
As for video keeping in mind that for full HD 6Mbs is enough. Which means that with luck class 4 might be ok. Likely it won't.
I have good results with hd video class 4 on Bada phone, but my OB hiccups with class 6 ( that's still to be confirmed if it is software or hardware issue).
If price is not a issue get the highest possible 10 is about optimal for phone higher than that is overkill.

U wrote so many stupid things that I cannot respond em all, so I will respond one: the only reason why W7 phones use class 2 is that those cards are cheap as autumn leaves.
"with a class 4 you could easily record HD " compare the bitrate of full HD stream with recording performance of class 4 card !!!!!!!!!!!!
euphorcimoron - take in mind one straightforward experience which can obviuously can be seen when You start Your OB ( but some x%$#@* here are to blind to see that ): multimedia files are scanned each time You boot the phone. More files -more time, faster card- less time.
So: get the card as fast as possible: better video recording, apps installed on SD work faster, faster copying of multimedia files into Your phone by any connection ( USB,WiFi), faster booting and so on.
Is there a limit ad to what the OB can actually utilize? I didn't buy a 10 because the sales guy didn't think the phone would have the read write speeds to need that high of a class?

i have no problem like this till now with the 10
Haha, btw if you can afford buying class 10, go for it. CM uses ext4 partition afaik, requires class 6 as minimum to work flawlessly

I use 16Gb class 4 and my videorecording feels like 15fps instead of 30fps. I don't know if it's a storage class issue or not because the same thing happens even if I use lower resolution. Probably a CM7 issue?

Depends on the bitrate bro, class 4 theoritically have 4Mbps so if your video recording has high bitrate it will slowdown the performance.
Also afaik CM7 has a bug about HD recording.

anyone using class 10 cards on their salsa?
does it help with performance?
any significant increase in speed?
#1. Class 10 SD card means the card is capable of transfering 10mb of data per second.
#2. Will it has noticable performance increase? Well, it depends on which divice you are using it with.
Talking about salsa, I think it wont be able to achieve a noticable difference in perfromance as compared to class 6 SD cards. Reason being, Salsa's overall configuration is not one of the highest. Being said that, it may not have high transfer rate while working with SD cards.
Salsa devs can add more info on transfer rate of salsa.

Thanks for the information
Yep
It works... I got a 16GB Class 10 card. Much faster than other cards around. Even class 6 is good enough.
I don't think so, the speed of the divice will depend on the slowest process. It will only give higher speeds when using in usb storage.

not in this case, ive used several s cards of various speeds and classes, and each have there differences, hence why when we use them in this phone for a specific reason...a set on is best. ie class 6 or above for usage with ext3. and it does work
