Hi,wanna choose a SD/MMC card for my XDA exec. Any good idea

Any Brand?
Any advice?
Cheers

I went for a 4GB Transcend SD Card. It works perfectly with absolutely no problems.
Got a great price from:
http://www.orcalogic.co.uk

anybody knows how to find a gool deal of this 4GB Transcend SD Card in the US?

4GB woh~
£174.50!!!
cant handle that!
shamed

I did try the 4GB Transcend SD card, but my Universal refuse to take pictures and store it on my 4GB card. So I returned it. I bought a 2GB SanDisk Ultra instead, and all works fine. Not to mention that the San Disk 2GB SD card is black in color, thus looks nicely on my XDA exec.

Hi to all,
please take a few seconds to see the Web up mentioned.
I am very interesting to buy a new 2GB, SD card. I saw many web pages and this is one of the best prices that I saw. Is a Transcend 150X. I saw more SD cards but without name.

Do not buy noname card! I have several of them broken lying around here.
I recommend Sandisk or Kingston.
Kingston gives lifetime warranty, Sandisk I do not know, but these two never make problems.
I use now 1 GB Sandisk SD Card.

Yo are right, everyone have to be careful when buy something, specially if you use your PC (Internet) to buy out side your country.
Be aware about the waranty, is a plus. Read about the produc and also the costumer notes or reviews.

re memorty cards
I too looking for a card. Iv now got a prog to convert dvd's to ppc etc. I got pocket dvd works nice very good qual at max size got it tooo 600mb a film.

Transcend SD-Speicherkarte 4GB 150x
anyone got a transcend card do they work any expierances?
Regards Russ

Very nice prices, I saw these web page a couple moths ago, but be careful if you don't live in Germany, you must pay ship and is very, very expensive!!!! check it first!!!!

hmm
maybe not so good then so where did everyone get a 4 gig or 2 gig card from for a steal that worked ?

8 gig card
http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=14569&ft=d&st=1
8 Gig cards didnt know we were there already, is there a limit on our phones to stop us going to 8 gig or will it take anything they bring out?

this is a 8 GB compact flash card, NOT sd.
afaik there are no 8 GB SD cards available yet.

i wish u not said that
I ended up buying a flash card instead of sd card :S contacted them hopefully to cancel

I can't recommend Kingston cards. I've just RMAed a 2Gb sample back because of cracks growing and - believe it or not - its distintegrating. The plastic prongs on the contacts have gone - snapped off and the read protect switch has gone to read protect switch heaven.
How old is it? Have I been using to fight off guerillas? 2 months and no, just in my Universal.

I bought it off this site mwave.com about 4 months ago, they had it on sale before for less than $200. I forgot the exact price. I checked their site but did not find any listed, take a look: http://www.mwave.com/mwave/ViewProd...SHMEDIA-SD&DNAME=Flash+Media+-+Secure+Digital

32GB MicroSD - working in X10

Just in case anybody was wanting a hands on confirmation....

How much did that cost you?

$199US direct from Sandisk US online store (selling it exclusively at release, and still exclusive through them but also available from their UK store, problems with stock currently). I got it shipped to NZ using Shipito, which is an excellent service for us non-US residents.
Expensive, but then I've had the money saved over a year now since the 32GB cards were meant to be released ages ago!

Why the hell did you pay that sum of money for card !?!? )) DO you really need it or just for fun ? Because maybe it would be smarter to buy now 16 Gb for like 50$ and when that become small, in year or two, buy 32 Gb for 50-100$, because that would be the price in 2 years....but cheers to your purchase

You have no idea how sick I was of not having all my music on the phone, along with room for apps etc. I've had a 16GB card since their first release and its chafed continually since then.
Besides, 32GB cards were expected ages ago, so I've had the money saved! I budgetted to pay even more to be honest, and still would have made the purchase in a heart beat if they had turned as expensive as I had estimated...

Then enjoy it !

thanks on confirmation ,i really wanted it

I have heard some noise about the 32gb not working for what ever reason. I know we have had one user claim that it is working on there device. Is there anyone else who has had problems with the 32gb? Or, are there any other success stories to be heard?

What 'noise' have you heard ? I know personally of someone who has 32GB card in his phone and it is working fine. I have seen two users on here sucessfully claim to be using 32GB cards in their X10.

" I know personally of someone who has 32GB card in his phone and it is working fine." This is what I am looking for, thank you. The rest was just noise.
Anyone else have any actual personal experience of the 32gb microSD working or not?

Yes, I've not had any major issues with a SanDisk 32gb card, a couple of issues with it not mouting correctly when trying to connect it to my computer and use it as removable storage but I get this occationally with the supplied 8gb card too.
Tested with my friends to start off with, and I've since been out and bought my own, you can buy and use with confidence, using mine mostly to store movies (only so I can showcase the phone - I find myself daily needing to justify why I didnt buy a Desire...).
Currently only about a hundred meg free.
It will become a lot more useful once the phone is rooted.
£100 for a SD card is a lot of money... If I were to do it again I probably wouldnt have bought it when I did, knowing my luck by the time we've rooted it they'll prolly be a third of the price!

32GB Official Compatability Proof

Prooved

I can also confirm that 32 GB SDHC MicroSD cards works well with X10.
...and I can confirm that there are 32 GB MicroSD cards out on the market that does NOT follow SDHC (SD 2.00) specifications, and might therefor be incompatible with the X10.
I was careless and happened to get my hands on one of these non-SDHC 32 GB cards.
SDXC (Secure Digital eXtended Capacit) cards does not work as far as I know of.

it seems that the SD card is cheap in China........i wanna a 16G one

China SD cards
I have read in message boards that china is spoofing the settings on the card to make the phone believe it is a 32gig card, and most of the time people get the card, stick it in the phone see 32 GB and give positive feedback to find out later that after 16gigs it craps out and they lose all their data. I would be VERY wary of a 25$ card from china. If you look at the pictures of the china cards, it used to be that there was a round sticker with 32GB written on the packaging. Probably over 16GB... but now the pictures on Ebay are all of a generic white background micro SD card with 32GB written on it.

why would i take offense? im still on an 8gb card

There is also a BIG difference in price between a Class 2 and a Class 10 card!
Check which one you are getting when you compare them......

verizon wireless had a special offer on the 32 gb card for the droid x customers, now you can find really good deals on ebay (range $65-100) for authentic 32 gb sandisk cards.
I bought mine for $89.99 (buy it now option) and it works like a charm.

I shop there all the time...
great stuff.
I have bought many of their SD Cards before and I have returned a bad one with no problem.
They are manufactured for MC by a different reputable company, I can't remember the name.
I would give them a chance if the price is good...

The Micro Center flash memory is a good choice. They purchase from source manufacturers and drop the "Micro Center" label. An example would be Micro Center 2GB SD (MMAGF02GWMCU-PA) is also branded as a Lexar 2GB SD and a couple other brands.

I have a 16GB Micro Center MicroSD card in my Evo right meow.
Paid $32 for it, can't comment on the speed (don't really care) but the price point is right on.
Can't complain.

i shop their daily for my business. i think the cards they have now are Sandisk and are all class 2. i got an 8 gig there about a year ago and it was a class 6 but since then they are all ether class 2 or occasionally class 4. if speed isn't an issue then i highly recommend them because if you have an issue with any of their MircoCenter branded products just take it back and they give you a new one no question. i am in Columbus and thats their corporate headquarters and it has the best selection. also it is their corporate policy to price match Newegg on anything in store. the Cincinnati store has given me fits about this but when i tell them i am from the Columbus area and shop at the Bethel road store they very quickly change their tune and match Newegg.

How much is that one? I found a 16gb sandisk on amazon and i get free two day shipping, for 28$

love it
I shop at MC almost every other day and ive bought one of every kind of flash memory they have. All of there SD memory is top freakin notch. Technically the micro's are class 2, but remember in SD storage, the class notates the MINIMUM speed. ive tested the 16gb i have a million time and it almost always comes out to class 6 speeds. There regular sd's are smokin fast and i buy them and use a SD card reader instead of buying flashdrives now. Speaking of which DO NOOOOOOOT BUY THERE FLASHDRIVES!!! They suck hardcore. im talkin 1-3mbps write speeds and an ENORMOUS rate of failure. But all there SD media is completely unrivaled. Dont hesitate, just buy it!

I paid 26 for 16 gb and is class two I get 3mbs write and 10mbs read

i'm also looking to get at least one lexar 32gb class 10 micro sd card. the only thing i'm worried about is the compatibility with my vibrant. is lexar a safe brand to use with it? (i've read that there were problems with the Kingston micro sd cards)

microsd recommendations

So the original microsdhc class 2 san disk I bought for the tablet in December turned out to be a fake. thanks to H2testw is was 2GB instead of 32GB, the seller stepped up and refunded the money (it was a third party seller on Buy.Com) and I was going to get a new card but just wanted to make sure that the Archos 70 would have no issues with a 32GB microsdHC class 10 cards that are out there. is that what folks recommend or should I be looking for something else?

I bought a a A-Data 16gb microSD class 10. Very good price/reward ratio.

@ ingopan
i was thinling about buying the same card. Did you do some benchmarking with this card, maybe even with the urukmod-tool from this thread ?
