Sandisk micro SD / SD combo card

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!!
Cheers

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.

Memory card advice wanted

Hi,
I've just received my TyTn II and am interested in getting a memory card for it.
It takes Micro SD but what is the max size that it/WM6 will work with?
Also, what is Micro SDHC? and can I use it?
I've seen a 2GB MicroSD card for £7.55 del. but I probably want a bigger card.
I intend using it for tomtom - photos - some games and apps and of course data file storage.
TIA
Bryan

I picked up a SanDisk 8GB via Amazon for under $70 USD (minus shipping).

I have a San Disk 8gig in mine and it's great.

Thanks for the quick replies,
As you are using 8GB cards they must be MicroSDHC? AFAIK MicroSD cards that hold 4GB or greater are all MicroSDHC.
Any chance you can pop your card and see?

The 8Gb SanDisk that I ordered is MicroSDHC (a.k.a. 2.0).

The HC stands for High Capacity and it is indeed for cards above 4 GB.
The device for the memory card has to be HC capable and lucky for us, our Kaiser is
Every micro sd card also has a class (2, 4 or 6 I believe). The higher the number, the better transfer rates (and response time), but also the bigger the cost.
I currently have a 6 GB (class 4) micro SD card. I'm going to wait a while to buy a new one until cards with about 16 GB or 32 GB (or something like that) of memory come around.

I'm also running the sandisk 8gb SDHC card. Its speedy and
works flawlessly. I got it on amazon for about 80 USD
The only thing i could recommend after having a card this big
is a good card exporting program on your phone so not
limited by activesync

Thanks for the help.
The 2GB MicroSD card at £7.55 seems very good value but I'll wait for an 8GB MicroSDHC deal to come along.
Hopefully a faster variant too..
Is it possible to connect the phone to a PC and have it recognised as a large memory stick? I know some phones do and then you can just explore them like a disc drive.
I will setup activesync at home for normal installation etc. but wondered if I could access the SD card whilst in phone from the PC/USB a la memory stick whilst at work.

yes, you can access the SD card like it's a memory stick by exploring. However, the transfer rate isn't as good as a USB connection with a stick. The 8GB SanDisk comes with a USB reader so that the card can actually be used in the reader just like a stick. Fastest transfer rate I've ever gotten with my phone

I'm using an 8Gb SanDisk MicroSDHC.
Works great!

I have a 8gb and it is fine.. but if you wait until next month you can pick up a 12gb and really have some storage space.

'im using a sandisk 6GB MicroSDHC for about 50canadian$

Talk about a deal i just purchased two 8gb for $70 because they were used and only came with one adapter.

I got my 8 gb sandisk sdhc card on ebay - another place to look for a great deal. Just be careful about the track record of the seller. I love the 8 gb card, but will be looking for a 16 gb card when they come out.

i saw the 16GB ones out anyone tried if it will work with the kaiser???

I run a Kingston 8GB SDHC in mine without problems (brought it over from my SDHC enabled Orbit), which I bought for £25 about 8 months ago from mobymemory. Never had any problems with it at all.

[Q] 32GB SD Card not working

I got a 32GB micro SD card for use with my Nexus One. However, it doesn't seem to work.
For starters, I'm using CM 6.1.0-RC1 and whenever I put the SD card in my phone, it recognises it but says it is not formatted. Upon formatting, it then tells me the SD card is corrupt.
I've tried formatting it through a card reader, directly from my laptop and via the Nexus One, but the result is the same.
Am I missing something or is the memory card a dud?

Well, how much did you pay for the card? Currently 32GB micro SD cards are only sold by either Sandisk or Kingston I believe, and it should not cost less than $80 (Sandisk, which I happily bought upon knowing the price).
No issues for me in the Nexus One, formatted on a PC using 8k cluster sizes.

I ordered a new SD card from Amazon - I should have it in a week or so. I'm hoping it'll work

[Q] Can I pun a ultra sd card in this phone?

I have de 8GB model and a 2GB micro sd card, and I was looking if I could put a ultra sd card so also my phone can go faster and have more memory, but I don't know if the s3 mini can hold the speed, I read that you can put it on an s2, if I can't, what class of sd should I put, maybe a class 8 could work without problems.
Thanks

Hi! I have UHS card in my s iii mini, it is working good, but it works on the same speed like class 10 card which i had before.

Yes you can, I'm using ultra Sandisk 64GB class 10, so far no problems.

Could the S1 take a 200GB micro sd card if formatted to FAT32?

Hi.
I'm looking to turn an S1 I bought as a phone into a dedicated DAP. I have seen Sandisk have released a 200GB micro sd card. Now if I buy this and format it to FAT32 will the S1 be able to read it? My FLAC library is over 150GB and I would like to put everything on there.
Cheers.

Have you looked at what micro SD card type the i9000 supports? Even if you format it to fat32, that it way beyond hardware capabilities for the phone to detect such capacity. AFAIK, the i9000 will support only up to sdhc cards, so that means up to 32gb.

I tried a 64GB card at fat32 and it works. I am going to try a 128gb soon.
I will let you know the results.
