Just got one delivered today...doesn't quite seem like a true class 10 speed, but way better than the class 2 I'd been using
http://www.frys.com/product/6427462?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG
**EDIT - Price Increased 1/7 to $32...still not bad at all**
Decent price. Thanks I'll check it out.

Hey if someone would like to clue me in on how to test the r/w speed on the micro sd card, I'd be happy to give some info on this class 10 card.
It shows as being $32.99 + $1.99 shipping on their website. It's still a great price if it really is a class 10 card but thought I'd clarify the price.

Got this as well right around Christmas time... Didn't need it but couldn't resist the price. So far so good.
I too would love to know how to test read/write to see hoe it compares.

What about transferring a movie over to the SD card and looking at the megabytes per second speed???? Do the same test on the class 2 with the same movie and compare.
FYI: For people in Canada, Newegg.ca has the same card for sale...16GB Class 10
I bought one and am using it in my phone -- and it seems fast enough.
I've also partitioned it for swap -- the rest for MP3s -- but anyhow...
http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820161405
It's CA$28.99 + $9.99 S+H
Given the current exchange rate, Fry's is a better deal -- but at least it doesn't have to cross the border (ergo, no duty)

Does anyone have any experience with Ridata cards? I've use alot of their CD and DVD media and have been very satisfied, price on the card is good..
Just wondering, if nobody has any bad experiences I think I'll order.

Cons: I got one, worked just fine for 3 week. Of course, all info (GPS maps, pictures, music) was lost. The second one I ordered, worked for 3 days.
I just trashed 100 bucks, plus Garmin maps, music, etc. Get a SanDisk, a little expensive but works "for ever".

Yeah, I saw that, but I rarely trust reviews on sites like that. too many noobs not knowing whats going on. I was hoping to hear from someone who's got some knowledge about who makes the cards for ridata and or from a respected member that owns one.
well if you dont trust reviews on websites then y are you looking for reviews here? the same ppl here are likely to be the same people reviewing things on newegg.
i know i post reviews for every product i buy from newegg because i like to do lots of research on products i buy and use reviews from average joes who didnt get the product free so they would give a good review regardless.
Thats way too expensive i would say, first of all.
Go to Target, get the Transcend 16GB, its like $45...the 8GB is like $30....I havent had any problems with this brand since i switched after having 3 failures on SanDisk's.
They are CLASS 6.

hey guys, i was looking for a decent 32GB MicroSD now that i have s-off and backups are HUGE...
i found ADATA 32GB Micro SDHC Flash Card with Adapter Model AUSDH32GCL10-RA1 for $69.99
if you sign up w/ a new account and this is ur first order u can save $10.00 (and yes it is free shipping) by using coupon code: NEWCUSTOMER10
IMPORTANT, when i first applied the code it told me this was not valid, however, when checking out w/ Paypal it applied the code.. -$10.00
figure i'd share while it lasts... looks like it lasts until 8/31/11
for proof for those who need it, i attached screenshots of the order on newegg, as well as email confirmation
That's a good deal! I might make another account with them because I made one a while back when they were offering 20% off your first purcase. I bought a SanDisk 32GB card a while back from Sandisk's site when they had then for less than $60 with a coupon code. That was a STEAL!!! I wouldn't mind having another one though for when I get a tablet next month. I have a tough time passing on good deals

So far my cards been good. I was hoping to get 17mbps write speed but I cant find a decent app to use to do some test so I used a windows utility I found here.
http://forums.sandisk.com/t5/Sansa-...ctual-transfer-rate-with-this-free/td-p/84325
and so far I've been getting about 13mbps write speed.
I've tried SD Tool app from the Market and it's inaccurate. It reads my class 2 and my adata class 10 cards both @ 10mbps
@ aznmode
Try AnTuTu Benchmark for SD card read/write numbers
It is showing me 5mbps for the internal SD ;(

I tried AnTuTu but this cant be right either. 6.4mbps write? I'm expecting atleast 10 for a class 10 card.
This is what I thought.
My Asus transformer gives me 14Mb for internal sd write and 12Mb for external card
Only 5Mb for the evo 3d internal card!!!
I tried other benchmarking tool, they all gives ridiculously low numbers

I just picked up this card.. seems great so far, tested with SD tools in the market and get 11/20 with it.. gona try the bench you guys mention and see how it scores
Edit..
Tested with AnTuTu and got 14/16..
Got mine yesterday, great speeds. I believe it was 14 write, 20 read with SD tools. I'm glad I was able to get one.

It's a class 2 just in case that's important to anyone.

The class of the card relates to the speed which it can read and write information. The higher the class the faster the card.

Class 2 means absolute garbage. Well for me it is. They are usually crap and it is the speed rating, which is usually under. So that means that even though its rated @ 2MB/s you will probably never see that.
I just ordered a 32gig class 10. Will let you know how it goes. Should be just as good as my last one, got over 14MB/s write speeds and 22MB/s+ read so.
When you put your music and files on it it doesn't take 30 minutes to do. Also when you are recording in hd and stuff you aren't getting glitches and whatnot. For me I wouldn't get anything less than a class 6. Your choice.

Got mine on Amazon for a little less (real little) and free shipping ( http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-32GB-...JYCY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1325739855&sr=8-1 ).
The SanDisk Class 4 was the go-to card for the NC (there's a chart floating around about r/w speed for different classes, sizes, and brands. Anything above a Class 4 is not recommended for this device (IMO) -- due to the performance-to-dollar ratio of the higher priced cards.
A little more then a dollar a gig... I'd say it's good

My comment was in reference to the cost/benefit of the steep performance vs. cost slope of investing in higher class cards.
My friend and I bought a Class 10 32 gig for only $39. I personally do not like Sandisk as a brand and was pleased to not buy their product, but that is just my taste.
Class 10 32gig that was rated well cost me about $50.

yea the one you linked to has sales tax which puts it like 20 cents below the price of newegg lol thanks for your opinion though
EDIT: oops, forgot to actually check and it doesn't have any sales tax! wow i actually just might get it from amazon then, even if it might take a bit longer... newegg(4-7 business days) vs amazon (5-8 business days) lol...
EDIT2: the link you provided, the pic of the card doesn't say what class it is and apparently there is a "newer" model here: http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-micro...M-032G/dp/B004G60AD6/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
surprisingly enough, its actually cheaper than the one you provided by like 20 cents after shipping and tax are calculated... yea the "newer" one needs shipping, but still no tax which is good...

Don't you think the onboard flash controller would be a limiting factor in the performance of that card? If a Class 4/6's performance on the Nook Tablet is near equal to the performance of a Class 10 on the Nook Tablet then wouldn't you think that the top end performance of the onboard flash controller is 6MB/s?
Just saying, a faster card may not be better, no matter how fast, or how much it cost if the onboard technology simply can't keep up it'll just work like a slower card.
Look at Micro Center's prices. They are a good gauge. Be careful buying ones off ebay, there are folks selling counterfeit ones.

I like to think that I'm thinking ahead. these were designed specifically with tablets and phones in mind. Right now I'm running a class 6 8gb I bought for my G1 originally. My phone is a shift, and I have a nook tablet in the way also. Once the tablet is fully and completely rooted and running cm9, it will be my primary android device for my work. The 8gb class 6 will go back to being my phones storage. As a side note, I have a 16gb class 4 card also. I could clearly see a difference running it. My phone would choke and sometimes corrupt the images when transferring numerous pictures at once via USB cable to my PC. Never had this problem before or after with the 8gb c6 card.
And, if nothing else ... I spent 30 bucks for a cool ass blue stripe! Lol.

I have thoroughly tested the class 4 sd card from transcend sold by Newegg. They work with everything I have put the NT through and work very well with playing video from SD. Work very well with Acclaim 1.4.1 revert to 1.4.0 I just shot a video of this and the new SD card root process.
Hope this hasn't already been posted, figured it was a pretty good deal.
64GB Sandisk
Thank you so much for posting this deal! I surfed through my wallet and through all of the left over best buy gift cards I had I ended up with a free 64gb microsdxc! This was an amazing deal to begin with, but you just cant beat that!
Nice, not to bad at all. Glad you got one!
Don't forget to reformat the card in your phone - or else it won't work.
I've had mine for 4 months I think? It's great - I love it. I won't be able to live with less memory ever again - which will be a problem with most of the next gen phones seemingly going away from memory cards.

I'm not sure, but I don't think so yet (64gb).
This link shows benchmark pics of a class 10 16gb vs. SanDisk class 6 64gb, and the SanDisk is actually faster than the class 10 card.

I wish I knew what brand that class 10 card was. It's garbage. I just ran that tool thrice and my average read/write was 10.9/4.9MB/s respectively with a Class 4 SanDisk 32MB. That said, I'm also pretty pissed I paid 65 dollars for this card when I could have gotten better speed and more powahhhh for not much more if I waited. FML.
In case anyone doesn't know, the class rating on these cards is the minimum write speed the card will achieve, provided you're not copying a movie from a USB 1.0 PC or something else that would bottleneck it.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA
To be fair you can't go with the read/write on a card unless you test empty. My 32GB card surpasses the Class 10 it is if empty but get near full and it' just below a Class 6. So the tests mean absolutely nothing unless you are testing with an almost full card. It's time I moved to a 64GB card my 32GB is too full with the games on it.. LOL
