MicroSDHC class 6 in class 4 package - General Accessories

so i was looking in the forums all day about microsdhc cards and the right speed to use with compcache. Went to frys planning to settle with a class4 because I dont feel like ordering online and I found this to my surprise. The box clearly has the class4 in a circle on the front. I had to dig for this sucker because I found a open package "returned" with a class6 card in it. Most of memory sticks were actually class4 inside the correct packaging and a few were class6 like mine. Picked it up for 25 bucks at frys.

by the way I was wondering if all I have to do is run RAv1.2.0 and do the fat32+ext2+swap to get compcache scrip to run correct?

That's true because my 16GB class 2 card has almost the exact same performance and my 16GB class 6 card. The difference is more noticeable on the pc though.

really? I been reading all over the compcache threads that G1 and the mytouch can read up to class 6 speeds. Everyone recommends class6?

I'm using a Tilt so maybe that's why but a higher class IS better.

[Q] EVO writes to sd card faster than read

I just found out that my EVO reads my sd card at a slower speed than writing it. Below is a snapshot I took when using SD card test reader on the phone. I have similar results (reading slower than writing speeds) on 3 of the micro sd cards I tested. This is very evident when I tried to copy a few backup roms I made to my computer. 2 gb of data took roughly 35 minutes to complete.
When I took the sd card out of the phone and hook it up to my laptop I can transfer the same 2gb of roms in just 2 minutes (17 MB speed).
What could be going on with the phone?

Weird. My phone/SD card have the opposite 'problem:' Read @ 3MB/s, write @ 2 MB/s. Class 2 SD Card.
Yeah I called both HTC and Sprint and they couldn't figure out what is the problem. I should get a replacement but I'm afraid a new phone will be android 2.2 already and I can't root anymore.
The EVO definitely acts a bit strangely as a disk drive, look at the following results I got with the same Polaroid 16gb Class 2 card I got from Fry's. The left image is through an micro to regular SD card adapter through my laptop, the right image is with the micro sd mounted through my EVO as a disk drive.
The SD speet test app on my phone netted 5mb read/5mb write
Nevermind, cheap card?

dailyme on AndroidPort TP2

Hello,
is there a way, that dailyme is running on the TP2?
The problem is, that there is no SD-Card avalible.

Not sure what app that is, but in my experience if an app cannot see the SD card you should just format it with the HP Tool. Full format, FAT32.
THX,
i tested it with a 8 GB microSD an it works fine.
I think the 8 GB Card is formated in the same way like my 32 GB Card.
Did anyone know, if the problem is the 32 GB Card? Can the Android Port work with the size?
My PC run on USB 1.1 and so a test with copy the data take around 1 1/2 days.

Is your 32GB card class 6 or 10? Because those cards are known to not work well with Android. Basically the higher the class the card, the more problems it causes. Class 4 seems about perfect, which is what my 8gb card is - never had a problem.
I have a Transcend 32GB card, there is no Information on the card which class it is. How can i find the class?
Is the 32GB card problem on all Android devices or only on the TP2 Port?
Is there a chance top run the card?

Benchmark Results formatting an 8GB microSDHC with different formatting tools

Just bought a new microSDHC card & I decided to format it in Windows. Then I decided to see if Transcend had a formatting tool so I tried it and got better results, next I found the SD Association had their own tool SD Formatter...

SD Formatter
awe hell. after that apparent fluke i can't reproduce the results. Well this is dumb. removed some crap from the original post.
Unlucky, So the conclusion being... It doesn't matter what you use to format your SD?

It's best to use the SD associations formatter if you need it formatted fat32 at 32kb cluster size, which is how SD cards are built to be formatted. Other apps probably can do just as good job, but you know the SD assoc app will do it perfectly. Using other apps or windows may format it similar, and speed will be the same, but since those formatters are made specifically for sd cards, tiny differences can cause problems with compatibilty.
To format anything, it's best to not use generic formatter and use app written specifically for media.
eh, not worth.
please disregard this thread in its entirety. this was a dumb thread I started because I thought I was on to something smart. It doesn't matter at all how you format your card. If anything, these graphs can show you how my Transcend SD card performs

Copy some big files to it and see. In my experience, all 32GB cards that cheap have been fake. EBay stores even say their cards are fake now

I have copied the full card using crystal disk mark, it shows 29gb and has written and verified it,
I'm just worried about the read
and write speed

SanDisk micro SD Extreme Plus 64 GB on SM-T520.

Hello,
I did put SanDisk micro SD Extreme Plus 64 GB on my SM-T520.
I tested it with A1 SD Bench and the results was too low of specs. The specs are: up to 80MB/s read; up to 50MB/s write.
Do you have similar results too, please?

How far below? Nobody gets reads/writes that exceed those specs. I think something in the 40MB/s range is normal-ish but others can give their specific experience.

Is there an accurate way to certify your micro SD card or SD host device ?
Without such certification you are wasting money: false card and/or poor device.
The manufacturers should provide more detailed specifications about the device instead of marketing stuffs.
Hello,
I got another micro SDXC SanDisk Extreme Plus 64 GB.
Unfortunately, the same result.
So, I conclude the device SD host is poor/weak/cheap.
