I'm waiting for my new pro2 and I'm planning to buy a 16Gb memory card for it...but I don't know which brand has the best reading/writing speed...
I mean...are there any "class 6" card?
It's better a Sandisk or a Kingston?
I found some sites that offer 16gb micro-sd class6

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211378
Not sure if they will ship internationally. Hope this helps

Running fine with sandisk 16gb class 2.
Class 2 is enough for usb and internal memory from tpII
don't waste money in this case. You don't notice any difference at all.
I have a SanDisk 16gb class 4. This one is good enough. The compromise between speed and money

That appears to be a class 2 not a class 6, may be acceptable to many, but in the context of this thread it's not comparing "apples with apples". Having said that it's still a good price for a 16GB card.
Gordon
Class 2 is okay - The price is perfect
Class 4 is good - The price is good
Class 6 is perfect! - The price is horrible
--> Class 4 is the best tradeoff!
Just got a transcend class 6 16gb microsd for rp 640,000... thats approx equivalent to USD60. I can get a cheaper brand VGen for approx USD 50.. but then, for an extra USD10, you get a more reliable storage card with lifetime warranty....
at the end of the day, the reliability of the data being stored is the most important thing to consider... if the price doesnt differ much, then ALWAYS go for better quality one... this would be my rule of thumb when purchasing things usually... things have different prices for a reason, and usually its the quality...
as with speed, i dont think it matters a lot... a good indication is if you can watch movie with a class 2, then data transfer rate is good enough...
I went to a well known IT mall in Singapore today to get a micro SD card for my Rhodium.
Class 4 16 gb micro SD retails for 73 Singapore Dollars versus 26 singapore dollars for a 8gb micro SD Class 4. (Kingston)
I opted for a simple 8gb and wait for the prices to come down slowly. I don't think I will be using lots of space for making videos and photos. And if you want to view any videos, convert them to the screen resolution helps.
Just got a Transcend 16gb Micro SDHC Class 6 off a local store here.. to me the price at $123 is still ok.. oh well.. the price I pay for an early adopter... I can very much remember the time I pay $100+ for a 512mb full sized SD.. haha..

To some like me, I just want a bigger capacity and speed.. I already had the 8gb Micro SDHC class 6 like a year a ago. May be cheap now but I never regret get it then.. besides, I fill up these card pretty quick and they are not about Videos nor Audio files. Audio/Video I do it on a dedicated player.
I already fill up till I left 4gb on my Transcend 16gb Micros SDHC I got yesterday.

Where I bought my 8Gb Class 6 for £9.89
Hi for info I recently bought my TP2 memory card for £9.89 at
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/8GB-CLASS-6-M...AsAccessoriesQ5fMemoryCardsQQsalenotsupported
Works a treat and noticably faster than my 4Gb class 4! It works perfectly with my TP2.
As a note my 4Gb class 4 drops off from the device occasionally, the 8Gb never!
Using the Class 4 card the TP2 struggles to play a 640 x 272 131kbps Video and 131kbps Audio 25fps 700Mb DIVX AVI movie, No problem with class 6 using TCPMP on the device.

hi!
is there any difference between 16GB class 2 Sandisk and 16GB class 2 Kingston?
I own a class 4 Sandisk 8GB and a class 4 Kingston 4GB and I don't notice much difference!
but I can buy a class 2 Kingston 16GB for about $52 and I was considering it (but it's a class 2...) or I can buy a class 4 Sandisk 16GB for about $75...
will I notice the difference (all I do is sometimes transfer mp3 or a movie to the card through Active Sync)... I don't use it as a Pen Drive or so...
I really need a new card since my 8GB is almost full!!! and I have to carry more than one!
BE AWARE
Don't buy transcend 16GB: they don't suppor power resume after sleep mode.
Example:
Create a windows media player music catalog placed on storage card
and activate random player.
Connect your htc headset and start listening music.
As soon as your device will go into standy/sleep mode with player running
on the next song the music will stop as your sdCard will disappear from system.
Modifying PnpUnloadDelay (and similar) doesnt help nor disabling sd-power-safe.
Tried 4 trasdendend with 3 different pro2: the same problem.
Bought a sandisk and resolved
So be aware!
Does the same count for Transcend 8GB Class 6 MicroSD's?
I can get one for 23 euros. The SanDisk costs 2 euros more for 8GB but Class 4.
Is 8GB enough for me anyways: navigation program, some photos, programs and videos. Because the SD's are getting bigger and bigger; I imagine that programs are too? Maybe 16GB would be a better investment then, or should I not seeing the use I make of it?
Got my TPII today so I am figuring it all out Thanks.
i want to buy a class 6 card in the uk, sems theres no 16gig here would settle for 2 X 8 gigs to hot swap one with movies on one with the rest of my stuff
any suggestions for good quality class 6 8 gigs in the uk
does anybody know where to get such a card?
I've seen several offers on ebay.com, but they were deleted.
Some guys in our german HD forum ordered Kingston 32GB microSD, but they were faked and didn't work - not recognized by Touch HD and formatting via PC only possible up to 2GB.
They paid a lot of money and want to get it back.
A second auction for a SanDisk 32GB card was a joke of some children which used their parent's account for having some amusement.
In the moment, is there any SERIOUS dealer who sells a 32GB microSD or must we wait further on?
There is a problem with 32 go (it heat a lot) so we can't find a 32 go yet.
updating my request:
I've seen several 32GB cards on ebay.com.
Any further information where to get one brandnew by a dealer??
Thx, Wolle

you've seen 32GB SDHC cards, not microsd cards... I've been searching for the 32gb micro's for a while now
Although my 16gb had like 6gb left on it... so I would have 23gb of free space with the 32gb... hmm

I don't think so...
here is an auction for a 32GB MICRO SDHC!!! I'm searching for it for half a year now und still didn't find one in Germany!
http://cgi.ebay.com/32GB-Micro-sd-S...C_Drives_Storage_Internal?hash=item3efac7fa3e
But take a look on the price! People who want/need such a card are crazy to bid in such pricíng ranges!
1 auction out of the billions on ebay... and it was prob a leaked item from the manufacture... that doesn't make it readily available for us... PLUS the price would be THROUGH the roof!
not to say I didn't buy the 16gb when it first came out for $90 USD
Cheap SD cards on eBay are often fake, with fake capacities. I would avoid them at all costs.
Most major stockists (all that I have found) don't even list a 32GB MicroSDHC card. The biggest they list is a 16GB which is over 50 GBP, your going to be looking at well over three times that price for a 32GB one.

Would you spend over 150 USD with a seller who has 14 feedback, and only 2 of those for selling?
no, I wouldn't. Will wait until the 32GB are availble in Germany.
It was just an example, bought a 16GB Sandisk half a year ago from my pc dealer round the corner, it costs about 50 € which is app. 75 US $.
Would not pay more than 120 $ for such an item.
I felt terrible paying 90 USD for my 16GB class 2
I've called the (german) sandisk hotline earlier this day and they told me that there is officially no 32GB mciroSD card sandisk by sandisk..... and he couldn't tell me if they will be releasing it in any time or not..... oh happy day

Right, the search function isn't working today (even the word "the" comes up NULL...), so I apologise if this has already bene answered, just send me a link to teh relevant post will do...
Anyway, memory. Can someone tell me what the max SD card size is for this unit? is that 32GB? I did see something about max memory is 32GB, but since mine has 13GB total internal storage, so if 32GB is the max TOTAL then I can expand with only 16GB, but if the SD-CARD MAX is 32GB, then that's a different story.
So I guess it comes down to the question: What is the max SD card size I can insert?
Max you can insert is 32gb MICROSDHC.
Great, thanks!
I can confirm a 32gb card works fine.
User manual specs say 64gb max
Reading the user manual specs it states 64 gb SD in two spots, but I don't think anyone makes a 64 gb micro sd yet.....do they?....and it could be interpreted as 64 gb split between internal sd and external sd....but it didn't read that way to me.
oh bother. After some reading I parsed that as 32gb total, meaning that I could only put in a 16gb sdhc into the Gtab >_< I guess if I start pushing storage limit in the future, I'll get me a 32gb card and migrate this 16gb one to my Samsung Captivate phone.
Thanks for the confirmation on the sdhc size. Wish I'd known that earlier when I ordered my card for the Gtab. oh well
I have yet to see a 32gb card drop below $100. 16 gb is ~$20. I can to get a 32gb card later.

I ordered it yesterday for $85.98.
I got in on the deal verizon had on the sandisk 32gb card back in sept/oct. It was only $50 at the time and other stores had it for $150 or more. Sandisk was the only one selling them then, and probably woudl be the first coming out with the 64gb when it becomes available.
And now it's $66? I can't keep up.
I bought this a month ago for $90. D'oh!

I'm looking for a 32gb class 10... so far I'm leaning towards A-Data or Samsung, since I haven't seen any SanDisks on sale
Are A-data and samsung high quality? Are there any other names that you would consider high quality?
Title says it all. What memory cards are people using, what in the consensus best option?

sandisk is another good memory card
I simply used samsung because I had these cards unused a long time ago...
I have had problems with Sandisk in Samsung phones but not sure if that issue has been fixed... That was a while ago...
Samsung 512gb SD card works well too...
I'm going to reopen this discussion, if folks are willing.
We all want high capacity cards. The Tab S4 is a laptop replacement tablet after all is said and done.
All Amazon prices.... (6/28)
So you have four choices....
SanDisk Extreme, 1TB (now available on Amazon) for $427. 88
SanDisk Extreme 512GB for $169. 99
SanDisk Extreme 400GB for $85.49
Or
And Samsung EVO Select 512GB for $100
According to reviews the SanDisk cards have a higher read speed than the Samsung card, but the same write speed.
Seems to me the 1TB card is just too expensive. The faster read SanDisk 512GB card is more than 50% more expensive the equivalent slower read Samsung card. The SanDisk 400GB card is half the cost of the 512GB card.
So which do you choose and why?
I currently have an older SanDisk 400gb card, am leaning toward the 512GB SanDisk. But salivating over the 1TB card.

Tab S4 is limited to 400gb sd card per spec or has it been tested with 512?
Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk
The SDXC format is good to 2TB. They had a similar low "upper spec" for my Tab S2 of 256GB and 400GB worked fine. Virtually everything I've read says that the upper spec they quote is not based on the reality of the hardware. The way one site explained it was that the upper spec is set by marketing based on the largest available card out at the time the marketing material was generated. If I could afford it, I'd go for the 1TB card without any worries
There are several, other card brands out there now on Amazon for 512GB cards around $100. It is hard to find direct head-to-head reviews of the actual 512gb cards, but it seems like it holds true that they all write at about the same speed, but SanDisk Extreme reads faster - but costs 50% more.
A possibly unrelated aside, I've attached a 1TB hard drive via USB without any issues outside of the pain-in-the-*$$ that NTFS gives. As far as I can tell in the memory manager, USB OTG drives and memory sticks are treated the same as the SD card.

Well, if you read the earlier posts you'd see I use a 512gb sd card...
What you need to remember is that the specs put out are generally what was available at the time...
No company is going to put out that the tablet will support a 2Tb card as that isn't currently available but that is what SDXC is supposed to support, then it will go to the next standard., Heck, most phones available at the moment won't support the 1Tb card according to their specs as these were NOT tested pre-release...
