I've been looking around Tiger Direct and NewEgg in search of a class 10 card to use but the only ones I find have warnings from previous buyers saying they don't achieve the rated speeds. I'm using a class 4 card right now with the 3.0 image and it's super slow to load. Can any of you link me the cards that you're using?
Thanks in advance

I am using a Transcend class 6 8GB from Newegg. Very fast...
Ditto. Transcend Class 6 8gb. work wonderfully (remember 16gb cards do nto work with froyo).
another vote for Transcend Class 6 8GB. And, stay away from Kingston Class4.
I'm using a Sandisk 16 gig Class 2 (that came with my Storm2) for Froyo.
I have a Sandisk 8gig Class 4 (purchased at Best Buy) for Honeycomb.
They perform great.
Beware of the CLASS rating.. it doesn't always tell the truth.
I have "generic" no-name made in japan Class 4 cards (an 8gig came with my Devour, and a 16 gig came with my X) that do not perform anywhere close to the two sandisks!!
Newegg, Patriot class 10 16GB.
Transcend here too. Class 6 4GB and 8GB cards.
Another happy Transcend 8GB Class 6 user here. Works well for Nookie Froyo and Honeycomb.
Thanks so much for all the feedback, guys I just ordered that 8GB Transcend Class 6 card since that seemed to get the most consensus here. Can't wait to try out Honeycomb with it!
im curious to know which one you bought and how well it works. let me know.
I bought the only Transcend 8gb Class 6 card I could find on the site, so I assume it's the right one. I'll post back here next week after I've received it and tested it out.
Hoping it's better than the Patriot Class 4 card I'm using now.. that thing is unbearable.

Is this true? I have a sandisk 16 gig I was going to use.

I'm using a Wintec Filemate 16 gb class 10 in my droid x, running liberty rom on Froyo. No problems at all, and one of my apps measures 3.6mb/s write speed and 4.9mb/s read speed.. Don't know if that's sufficient or not but I haven't noticed any lag with it.

I'm using a Adata 8gb Class 6 card and enjoying Honeycomb.
That Honeycomb v4 build is pretty great, though I'm still having major issues with getting the Market to work. Other than that one quibble, its running fantastic - zippity too.
Transcend 8g from amazon class 6. No issues.
Tried Sandisk 4g class 4 very laggy.
Fry's has a Patriot 16GB Class 10 for $45 and it's in stock in the store near me (Austin, TX). Any comments on that? I seem to be seeing a mixed message on whether Froyo and/or Honeycomb will work with a 16GB card, though. I currently have a 4GB card that I'm using to hold a few things for my rooted stock B&N 1.1 firmware, but I'm interested in trying out Honeycomb and don't want to disturb that one.

I tried the Patriot 16gb C4 and it was slow. After 2 other 16gb would not work, I didn't want to return to Fry's and get another. The Patriot 8gb class 10 works like a charm.

purchased the 8Gb transcen because of this thread
Hi,
I was thinking of buying a 128GB SD card and this SD to MicroSD adapter http://dx.com/p/sd-to-microsd-transflash-card-converter-module-27001 and hooking it up to my Nook HD 7" for use with all those awesome emulators and the recent CM builds. Question is, will this work? Does the Nook even support SD cards that big? I don't want to buy something and find out it doesn't work the way I wanted.
Hi,
I have read both on XDA and on the official Barnes and Noble support site that people successfully tested and used 64gb micro SDXC cards. But for 128gb I am afraid none tried or reported yet.
If you do try it let us know it if works.

You would want that big thing hanging out of the bottom of your Nook?

No, he was talking about a 128GB SD, not microSD. That's why I said it would be a big thing hanging out of the bottom.

My Nook HD (8gig) can't seem to recognise my Samsung 32gig but can for my SanDisk 8gig. Is there some limit for the 8gig model? Should I just try buying a 32gig Sandisk one?

You should be able to see up to 64GB. Is the 32GB one you tried formatted properly. Try formatting it in the nook under settings, storage.

Yea, why would you want that hanging off the bottom of your Nook? And why do you need 128GB of storage for a Nook?
You could tape it to the back and out of the way.

i have one of these, it doesnt work in the galaxy note,but it does work with my S3, there is also a post on you tube , its a rubbish review but you can see it working http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaQIkAHbHoE this should be great with the galaxy mega 6.3, and yes I'd just tape it to the back i dont care if it looks ugly, its only me that will really see it. Im confident it will also take the 256SD card but havent tried,
i also have the little adapter which is in the you tube video which works brilliant on my s3 and it sadly doesnt work on the note, it might work on the note 2 but havent tried it yet...
Hi All,
I am most probably going to buy a nook 9 hd+ today, and am looking at what sd card to put in it.
I will load cm10 onto the memory card, so as the whole system is running off the sd card, im guessing
it will pay off to get a good quality sd card??
Im thinking a class 10 samsung or sandisk, probably a 32gb one.
Any suggestions/comments?

If you search in the HD/HD+ forums there are whole threads on this subject. Class 10 are not the best. SanDisk class 4 are the best. Getting the right card is critical when running from SD.

thanks, ive ordered a class 10 anyway, but i will get a class 4 aswell, might load it onto both and compare see if there is any difference.
Just got my nook hd+ 9 too, got it for £189, with a case worth £20, a £55 giftcard for 3 month subscription to times newspaper, and £20 voucher
for the nook store.
For that price i just couldn't say no.
Hi
Ok reading over and over and have not seen this one asked.
If I use cm10.1.3 can I use a larger sd card say 64g or can it only still use a 32g? Also what specs of card do I need over my head since I never use sd cards for anything. This is the hd+

You can use any size you want, even 64GB. The best SD to use with the HD+ is a SanDisk class 4.

Hmm, any reason you recommend a class 4 card? I was going to purchase a 64 GB microSDXC class 10 card from Amazon; I don't want to get it if there's some sort of problem though. Please advise; thank you

Yes, there is a reason. Some have reported i/o errors with class 10. But some work ok. But I don't think you can get 64GB in class 4, so you may want to try it. But be warned the 64GB will be mounted as ext_sdcard so is not very useful. All of your apps will use internal storage by default unless you use my swap from my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature.

You're right, I should have thought to do a quick search for error class 10 and I would have seen a slew of reports. I don't want to risk it so I went ahead and ordered a 32 GB class 4 microSDHC. Thank you again for your advice!
I've been using a Kingston 64GB class10 for almost a year without any issue.
It got it for my original TF101 then moved to the Nook HD+ (formatted it to FAT32 from the start).
I use it mainly for movies, ROMs, TWRP backups.
I actually have many class10, class6 cards from many vendors (many Kingston)... never a problem.
I also use Sandisk 64GB without any problem. I have pics and mp3s in my sd card. No apps.
Should I go with a Samsung card for my 8.0 or is ok to use other makers cards, specifically talking about the ultra, extreme types. I want something fast but compatible.
Thanks in advance!

I have been looking for a 64g SD card for my samsung tab 3 7". After reading many reviews on amazon I have discoverd a few things you might want to consider.
1. Anything over 32 gig is a whole different world for sd cards an compatibility especially for Samsung tab 3's
2. I don't know about other brands but sandisk seems to have formatting problems with android. They sell several different 64gig cards and some come with a warning that reformatting in the mobile device will leave the card unusable.
2. There are a lot of counterfeit 64gig cards out there and even though people are complaining about it, Amazon continues to sell them. Read the reviews carefully.
3. I don't know if the tab3 can utilize the class 10 cards that claim 30 mb per second.
I just started looking into getting a 64gig card for my tab 3 and my information is still incomplete as to what to get. All I can suggest is read, read read... There are some shifty deals out there.
I hope someone that has more knowledge about this subject will chime in as I am somewhat confused about the best card to go with.
Copy that. Thank you very much or the input, I was also just reading about the counterfeit cards that Amazon is selling in the reviews for some cards and elsewhere. I'm not sure why or how they would continue to sell them knowing that they are fake! I am seriously thinking about just going with one of the nicer Samsung cards and be done with it.

I'm using one on my tab 3 right now, it's only 8gb though but. But the read speed is 24~30mb , write speed is 10~12 mb/s.

it's ok to use other SD cards
but if you want the fastest, always buy an SDHC or i can say a class 10 SD card
anybrand seems fine like sandisk, patriot, kingmax, etc.
but now i'm using patriot 32gb LX class 10, works fine
32gb class 10 confirmation

Running a SanDisk 32 c10. Movies and data stream fast and easy. Not benchmark but no hesitation.
So no problems with anyones non Samsung card not being recognized by your device or in particular your recovery?

Cool, Good info. Thanks
Just to update its been 2 weeks now and the cards are doing great. I read the reviews before I bought and they said the transcend was very compatible with devices and since samsung is so picky I liked hearing that. Also a lifetime warranty is great too. Proof of purchase is necessary but since I purchased thru amazon I always have a record.

Amazon has the sandisk 32 & 64gb ones on sale for $22.82 and $48.62.. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009QZH7BU
Just so you know sandisk and samsung dont mesh well together. Check google and you will find tons of info on this issue.

I'm using a Kingston 64gb class 10 just after 3 months of usage it got corrupt, all my files weren't working but the card can be read when you put it in, formatted it a lot on the tab and on the laptop with the card reader. I'm a noob and didn't do research cause the card was given to me from my girlfriend, at a stand still now trying to find the right tool to fix my SD card and no luck so far
