Sandisk have announced an SD-USB card.
http://www.sandisk.com/pressrelease/20050106a.htm
Does this mean we would be able to use these portable usb hard disks with our XDAII's?
Regards
no it means that you can plug your sd card directly into your computer without using a cardreader
the xda series require sd host to be able to use usb devices
This card: BRILLIANT!!!
I thought this was a wonderful idea too when I heard of it.
Now that is SEXY :mrgreen:

Hi guys,
I'm thinking of upgrading my 512mb SD card to 2gb, but I'm not certain that the phone (Qtek 9090) will be able to work with such a large card.
Does anyone here have a 2gb card working? Any brands/models that are known to work or fail?
Thanks in advance for your help.
2gb SDCard...
Hi!
I'm currently using a 2gb SanDisk SD Card, everything works great. Oddly enough, I cannot find a card reader to connect to my PC that can read them!?!? I'm still using 2003SE and transfer movies and MP3's to the phone by using the painful multi-hour process of Exploring via ActiveSync. Uggh! This is fixed in ActiveSync 4.1 but ONLY if you are running WM5... Just having 2003SE and 4.1 will still be totally laggy for file copy.
Enjoy!
2gb SDCard...
Hi there, I also have a 2Gb Sandisk card in my XDAIIs, I also have a card reader which I purchased from PC World for £10.
Works a treat!!

Hi! Do you have a brand name or model number of the card reader you mentioned so I can search for it on the Internet? So far I've purchased 2 different readers and neither can speak "2gb" :shock: The one I can use for 1gb cards but not 2gb cards is Belkin F5U248 rev.2, so I know that one wont work!
Thanks in advance!
Does anyone know what speed the BA supports for its SD cards?
The transfer speed is limited by the SD card type
The transfer speed should be contained within the card specification sheet
As I understand it, the maximum transfer speed is 22.5MB per second
This is for a 133X SD card, so compare accordingly
thanks for the reply. I just wanted to make sure that there wasnt a limit on the SDIO bus on the BA.
I'm planning to buy a 2gb Sandisk, but i'm not too sure whether the ultra version will work, as the compatibility list on their website only shows the standard. So i might just get the standard one to be on the safe side.
I currently use 4Gb SD card! I had only hard time finding flash card reader for my PC, which can read such a big card
I believe PPC devices has no problem with big SD cards. At least my Mio 168 PPC with GPS (PPC 2003) understand 4G card too.
But I do not believe flash manufacturers X rating. I NEVER seen real speed more than 3 Mb/s on any type of device. My card have rating x133 (22.5Mb/s). And I have no idea on what device and how did they measure that speed?
From the 2g->4gb reports it sounds like sd card size is not so much an issue for the BA, more for the SD->USB adaptor.
I have the same awful USB activesync file transfer rates reported on this thread, despite running WM5, so it sounds like my current adaptor might need upgrading.
Anyway, thanks for helping out, and I now have a 2gb 133x SD on order for next week ;-)
The typical transfer rate is 2MBps
Quotes like 133X and 150X are NOT a multiple of this but the coefficient comparison between the read and write speed
As an example for a 2MB SD card
Uploading 2MB data takes 1 second
Reading data, for that same setup, takes 1 second
For the 133X the write speed is the same, but the read time is 0.4 seconds and for the 150X card it is 0.33 seconds
This also assumes the SD interface meets SDIO v1.01
If not then the 133X and 150X cards take the same time to read as the standard card
2gb Card Reader
Hi there ottGalaen,
My card reader is made by PC Line, I think it's PC World's own brand, the Model number on the back is PCL-CR400.
Here's a link to it...
http://www.pcworld.co.uk/martprd/st...null&sm=null&tm=null&sku=818835&category_oid=
If that doesn't work just go to www.pcworld.co.uk and search for PCL-CR400
I hope this helps
Kind regards
Terry

Yo, what type of SD card that you using now (Sandisk Ultra II) ?
Just so you guys know my 4GB SD card is a Transcend 150x.
I bought this card from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Transcend-mic...YX8U/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1322469285&sr=8-5
Although I've noticed my write speeds when transferring 700mb-4gb type files only to be 2.32MB/sec. Reviews on amazon show that others are getting 4MB/sec...
no... but i saw this browsing the web... http://www.adorama.com/IDSMICSD32G.html?utm_source=ET&utm_medium=TransactionalEmail&utm_campaign=2point0Product1 its cheaper...and the site has great reviews...
I have the same card and my speed is around 4.2MB s. Have you try testing the speed of your card on a PC?
You can also try to format the card in the PC. I've seen it helped with my other micro sd card for the Motorola Photon.

how should i format it, in FAT32? i formatted it with the phone after i got the card.
i also notice that if i transfer files while in clockwork mod recovery, it'll transfer at 3.5-4MB/sec, but back to only 2.35MB/sec when booted up.
Yeah just format it to fat32. You can also try "sd formatter" program for windows.
Have you tried the Android app "sd card tester" to test the card speed? Do that test first to see if the problem is indeed with the micro sd card.
From my experiences with micro SDHC in the Nook Color, there is no substitute for SanDisk cards. Their class 4 card is faster than everyone else's class 10s.

Just to clarify this fact, as it depends what you use the SD card for.
If you are running an Operating System from the SD card Sandisk have been found to have very fast random read/write speeds, but if you're recording video etc a Class 10 is better. The reason is an OS needs to write and read data from all over the card but recording video writes sequentially.
If you're not running the OS from the card, a higher class of any quality brand card will serve you better. If you are running the OS from the card, like many of us are with our Nook Colors (and lovin it), get a Sandisk Class 4.
Has anyone found a inexpensive yet fast Micro Sd card reader?
I just got a Sandisk 64GB and would love to find something that could reader and transfer files to it as quick as possible. I looked at DX.com but a few units mentioned slow speeds. Anyone have any they can vouch for?
I have a Sandisk 64GB and several reader/transfer USB devices. All of them tell me the SD needs to be formatted. My SGS3 accepts media file transfers on the card though. All my readers can read my 32GB SD cards and transfer files with no problems at all. How are you getting files (other than media) to transfer between your PC and 64GB SD card at any speed, even slow?

Figured it out after reading more SD card posts...
My XP laptop needed an MS update to read exfat. Got it and everything works now.
I got this one from Amazon when it was on sale for $28 as the lightning deal of the day.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A4A1TYM/
It comes with a USB 3.0 SuperSpeed microSD card reader (that just sweetened the deal) best of all, this card is rated a UHS I class 300x
I would have gone with 64GB but I'm glad I didn't since you have to hack your ROM to use it as your internal storage on Samsung devices. This is one thing HTC does right atleast. They let you combine your storage, why can't Samsung do the same...
the speeds are very impressive though, it outperforms my Class 10 8gb microSD
I get 41 MB/s read and 24 MB/s write (with the USB 3.0 jack)
with USB 2.0 it cuts those speeds down in half

When connecting the device via USB cable, don't expect the transfer speeds to be that great. MTP is the default transfer protocol if you didn't change it. If you need to move files off of your MicroSD card quickly, its best to remove the media card from the Note 2 and put it into a card reader. As for the gallery app on the device, from what I have experienced is if you are using the card for the first few times it may take some time for the picture thumb nails to enumerate completely, especially when you have a lot of photos/videos.
This is purely from experience. I hope this helps a bit.

?????????????????????
Hello guys, just bought my Tab S4, and i wanted to pass some photos via the usb c port to the Micro SD inside the tablet. But the SD Card in the adapter does not get recognized. BUT when i took the sd card that was inside the tablet, the sd card inside the adapter got recognized. How can i fix this? Because on my Note 9 i can open both on the explorer. The Sd card inside the tablet is a Samsung EVO 128Gb while the one in the adapter is a Sandisk Extreme Pro of 32Gb. Since i can open both in the note i figured that is some misconfiguration on the tablet. Thank you in advance.

Apparently there's some problem with the combination of the EVO with the Extreme Pro, i have another simple sandisk sd card, and it works fine alongside with the other cards, but those two don't want to work together.

Should work, mine does. Perhaps a slightly incompatible usb-c adapter or the file manager app?? Try ES File Explorer.

Don't think so, already tested all of it, the problem is in the combination of the Extreme Pro with the EVO, other cards works flawlessly. I think it must be something to do with the power needed to power the cards.
Mine won't read both either, but it's most likely because both my cards are formatted with same directory name.
