I would prefer a Sandisk or a Transcend Card instead of TOSHIBA. Its not very reliable.

It is actually very good. Its the default manufacturer of the 2GB SD card we have. I'm using the 8GB version and it works well.

Hi guys
Quick question, i want to buy one of these combo SD cards, with the micro sd included.
Is it better to buy a normal 2GB SD card, or is this combo cards just as good?
Im just scared i get less speed, transfer rates etc on the combo card.
I cant find proper reviews. Any thoughts?
Well, I'm using such a card (Kingston 2GB) without any problems. It's just it's comfortable And it's a high-speed card, I can't notice any speed dropoff...

Hi there
I also got a Kingston 2 GB combo at a very good price!
Ill try it out!!

I compared the speed of the cheap noname card in my Hima with the fast Sandisk UltraII from my camera, notice no speed difference between these two for running navigation or transferring files through ActiveSync.
In my camera or in my desktop internal card reader however the Sandisk is much faster.
I'm going to buy a 16GB microsd card from sandisk. I've been finding on Amazon and found these two products:
Sandisk 16GB Mobile Ultra MicroSD Card : £36.00
SanDisk 16GB microSDHC Memory Card : £15.99
I've also noticed they're all class 2 (can't find a class 4 or class 6 sandisk). So what is the difference between them? I'm using the card for Windows Phone 7, so which one should I buy?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SD_Memory_Card#SDHC_cards_with_greater_than_32.C2.A0GB_capacity
as I understand it the only advantage of SDHC is an increased card storage. And im not sure if an SDHC card works in the HD2.

Both of them should be SDHC (>2GB). I'm asking about the Ultra thing.

Sorry, got it wrong
They're the same thing. One has an adapter however
Ultra means it has higher transfer speeds.
There's also Ultra and Extreme in the regular SDs.
Ultra=15 mb/s
Extreme=30 mb/s
So it's all about speed.
@apallohadas: they have different model number, one is SDSDQY-016G-E11M and one is SDSDQ-016G-FFP. And I suspect that just a card reader will make that difference in price.
@joooe: but they're both class 2?
I've tried several different class cards in my HD2, and regardless of advertised 'class' r/w speeds only changed noticeably if I took it out of my phone and used a card reader or adapter like shown in the "ultra" listing you have.

Hello apallohadas
can you confirm or any one without any doubt that there is no difference in R/W speed between class 2 or class 4 or class 6 inside HD2 with Windows 6.5 or Android
thanks

I don't have Winmo installed on my phone anymore, so I can't rerun that test and I didn't keep the numbers last time that I did it.
But if you'd like to try testing cards yourself, I used a program called H2test and a card adapter. My Class 2 Sandisk 32GB card gave numbers comparable to a class 6 Transcend 16GB.
Inside of the HD2 however, while on Android the tests take too long (setting read/write file sizes of 1GB+.) I've read in several places that the hardware limits performance as though they were all class 2 cards.
There are reviews where a class 4 card is superior to a class 6 card.
Sandisk cards are just great.
In the sandisk website there is no info about the class of both cards. Don't believe they have the same class.

thank you apallohadas for replay
I think so, hardware limitation to Class 2 with HD2 although I read in several places that there is more performance with Class 6 or 10 card in Android especially SD Android
I have Sandisk 16G class 2 and want to upgrade to 32G and I don't want to wast my money in useless class 6 or 10 with my EU HD2,
any one use Sandisk class2 then upgrade to class4 or 6 with EU HD2 and get faster performance in read and write inside HD2 not as disk drive ??
thanks
I just put one of the CM nightly builds (build38) on a uSD card (sandisk 16gb class 2) and there is a major lag to even enjoy the device. I have been reading about that sometimes class numbers on the cards don't mean too much.
Which card would you recommend to run CM from (Brand/class/where to buy) from your experience?
any class 6 card should be plenty enough (as long as it has enough room for the ROM and stuff) even class 4 should work much better (but still some lag i beleive, idk ive never tried it)
newegg is a pretty good place to shop for them. Heres one such card - newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211341&cm_re=8gb_micro_sd_card-_-20-211-341-_-Product
There is a long thread about this on here and the class 6 Transcend 8GB card got the most mentions for good perfomance. The probability for issues to arise increases when using cards over 8GB.
I have a class 2 Sandisk 8GB and class 6 Transcend 8GB card. They both work well.
I have been buying the Wintec cards from newegg for a couple months and run them in both my captivate and my nook they work awesome. Class 10 and fast. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820161411

Are you running a rom (e.g CM7) off the card? Did you ever run a speed test?

Not at this time. What speed test would you like if I loaded one up on the card and booted from it?

I used that card for HC v4 and it was fine.
I've got 4 uSD card: one Dane-Elec 2G no class, one Kingston 2G no-class, one Transend 4GB class 6 and one PNY 8GB class 4. All run CM7 very well, maybe I didn't pay attention but didn't notice much different in performance. In benchmark, the write speed is about 5-7 MB/s.
The higher capactity 16GB card seems to have more problems, other than that every card will do.
You should check into the random read/write performance of small files on these cards. sometimes the class 6 or 10 aren't all they are cracked up to be. Fast transfers of large file yes, but general performance can suck.
sandisk class 2 or 4 cards can have excellent perf. I have a class 10 that is outperformed by class 2/4 and 6 cards.
if you are having problems with crashing, etc. try a basic sandisk and see if perf. is better.
there is a thread about it but i can never find it.
I see one member here modded his Note to take a normal sized SD card.... is there any advantage using the full-sized cards to the mini ones?
Go with MicroSD. There is no difference between them, except the fact that SD card won't fit and moddying the phone to force it in - is generally not a very good idea.
Well, there are three differences:
1) Size: Regular SDXC available to 128 GB, mSDXC 64 GB only
2) Speed: Regular SDXC up to class16, mSDXC class6
3) Pricing: Regular SDXC are cheaper than mSDXC
It's your choice...I choose the 64 GB mSDXC from SanDisk (cos no modification is necessary)
Regards
so i take it that for the same class of card there is no performance benefit of full size SD over micro..
although his set-up does allow hot-swapping...not sure if there are any benefits to that though.

I thought microSDXC went up to class10. At least thats what I think I have
I read somewhere there is no added benefit on using over class 10 sd card on a mobile phone. Actually Class 6 is more than enough according to some benchmarks. Sorry I cannot quote right now.

Would like to ask whether any significant performance different between Class 4 and Class 6 card. Last I check the price of a 32 class 4 / class 6 scandisk is nearly 40% price premium.

So I'm assuming you got the 64GB micro SD card to work in the Note? Anything special you need to do to get it to work? I know I had to format the card first in my Evo 3D. Thanks.

@fabianfred
Yes, I did forget the hotswap possibility, cos you don't need to remove the battery.
If you need more than 59,46 GB for music, movies etc you should get a regular SDXC.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
@jeffs99
I've found the class16 at ebay, but I'm not sure if the speed is achievable.
Just google for sdxc class16 and you'll see.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
@f1nzup
Nothing special needed.
Just put it in your Note and format it in there.
Voila, you've got 59,46 GB to spam.
Regards
What size sd card should I get? Would 2gb be fine?
If you're gonna be installing a lot of software you should probably go with 4+. I believe 2 is sufficient if you have it on hand
Thanks

Yes I just got a sandisk 16GB Extreme Class 10 45MBPS for 17.00 prime free shipping
Also RPi has a micro SD card adapter, so I am using my old micro SD card from old phone. They are available at adafruit.com or ModMyPi.com. they are cheaper at adafruit.com
Sent from my GT-I9300
The minimum size SD card I would recommend is 8 GB, also check out this list of SD cards that are known to work well with the RPi and this list of SD cards to avoid and that are known to cause problems and not work.
I think 16Gb 10class SD card is best of speed*size/price.
I looking on sandisk extreme 8GB. But I've read that rpi with some kernels have boot problems with some really fast cards.
Sent from my LG-SU660 using xda premium
I you are pretending to really use the rPi as a "real computer" everyday, install softwares, development kits, etc I would recommend a 8GB or more SD card, they are not expensive(as a guy said, a 32GB card will cost less than 30 bucks in USA. This is difficult here in Brazil, today I bought a 8GB MicroSD card for 30 dollars). If you want to use the rPi for small things, Chrome OS or something like that I think that a 4GB card will be fine.
I Picked myself up a couple of these at the start of this year, Class 10's and on the known Good List and only 20GBP at the moment, which is a bargain. Now all I need a RaspPi to go with it

You can be happy getting the 512MB version then, so waiting isn't that bad.
OT: 4GB ist enough for almost everything, but then its recommended to mount /home onto an external drive for storing user data.
