Hello!
just wanted to share the following:
The SanDisk microSDXC 64 GB Card works in the Atrix.
You have to reformat it in the phone, because the Atrix like others doesnt understand the ExFat-Filesystem.
Right now im rebuilding my webtop2sd partition, the SanDisk seems to be a little faster than my old transcend 32gb.
This is good to know. I'm getting ready to upgrade my 16gb sdcard and have some money to spend so I'll keep this in mind. Thanks man, good share.
How much did that cost?

Thanks I was thinking about giving one a try but it's alot of money to risk. Nice one, I shall order mine today.
I got it for 85 € here in germany, that equals 108 $.
In my opinion thats a reasonable price for that.
Man...i remember spending that much on my first usb 1gb flash drive lol
I don't remember how much I spent for my first two 5" floppies.
Those were smuggled to the xUSSR during communism era about 27 years ago...

What is the class of the card. Now that I know it works I might have to get one. 8gb is hardly enough for me anymore.

Class 6.
Feels a little bit faster than my transcend 32gb class 4.
64gb, man thats too much
im satisfied with 16gb which costs just a bit more than 20$

I don't mess around with low quality mp3. I listen to Lossless audio. I prefer fidelity infidelity. Anyway, where can I get this 64GB card? I want class 10. I can't deal with low performing class 6 cards.
thanks

You're out of luck if you want a Class 10 card. As far as I'm aware, only Class 6 MicroSDXC cards are available at present.
You can buy them from Amazon in the UK and, I expect you'll find them on Amazon elsewhere as well.
As somebody who can remember when we paid £500.00 for a 1GB hard disk at our work (this was perhaps 15 years ago?), seeing 64GB storage in a tiny MicroSD format for less than a hundred quid still makes me shake my head in disbelief!

will love to see it. im on 32gb class 4.

Looking for suggestions. first of all, has anybody filled up the packaged 8gb memory on your phone? and if you've upgraded your SD card, please let me know what kind and how much, I saw a 16gb mircroSDHC from newegg but the reviews were not so great:
*well apparently I cannot post outside links
but here is the item number from newegg.com N82E16820139121
I upgraded to a Winston 16GB Class 10, I got about 4GB's left due to music and movies
Upgraded to a WinTec 16GB class 6 on the first day! It worked awsome!
using the 16gb sandisk that came with my HD2...works fine, (didn't work for crap in the HD2 though). I do not keep a lot of music on it anymore now that I use Slacker almost exclusively...but I do have a couple movies on there at the moment.
I am using the 8GB that came with my MT4G in my HD2 to run Android (works fine as well)
I'm sure you shouldn't have a problem with anything up to a 32gb...just buy from a respectable seller, I have heard a lot of horror stories about cards off ebay
cool, thanks fellas, looks like I'll just go with a 16gb gonna go for a class 10 one.

i'd recommend class 6 since the hardware can barely read as fast as a class 10 card.
but if you wanna spend the extra bucks on wasted speed, go ahead =P
I took the 16gb class 6 sd that came in my Fender mytouch and popped it in. Ive got about about 4.8gb left with music, movies and roms on it. Since there arent any roms that use ext or swap yet, theres really no way to tell how well it functions other then the music and the movies play fine lol

I bought a 32gb memory card class 4 from Adorama for 99.99 with free shipping. Got it and made sure I ran a speed tester on it and it passed. No complaints... however took forever to arrive lol I'm a music junkie and I was about dead by the time I got it because by then I had already sold the one preinstalled.

Just kinda agreeing with agentaaron, my 16gig that came with my hd2 didnt work so well with the hd2 but it loves the mytouch..cant figure it out as I thought it as a defective card...but works just fine.
ok, so I got a 16gb card class 10 for 30 bucks from the egg, can I just copy/paste everything over from my stock card onto the new one and my phone should work just fine but with the extra storage space correct?
yup, thats what I did, no issues so far

1) Copy your whole card to your HDD
2) Download Astro from Market
3) Open Astro, hit Menu, Tools, SD Card Usage
4) Find out what is taking up all the room
5) Use your noggin to delete what YOU think you don't need
6) Remember that you made a backup
Back OT:
I've narrowed down my choices for my new 16GB card to the Wintec Class 10 on Newegg for ~30 or the Komputerbay Class 6 for ~40. Only the reviews so far are making it a tough decision. Will you guys with either card please revisit this thread next week and post your findings after repeated use?
Posting Findings
Got my 16GB Wintec Class 10 in the mail on Friday.
Tested with CrystalDiskMark 64-bit using the prepackaged SD adapter in my laptops SD slot 3 times each.
Sequential Reads 13MB/s+
Sequential Writes 11-12MB/s
I'm impressed. I will continue to use and report back findings.
Going to get my wife one for her MT4G and another one for the Nook Color (X-mas gift) I will be getting.
EDIT:
Tested the stock SanDisk 8GB Class 4 that came with the phone:
Sequential Read : 11 MB/s
Sequential Write: 5.3 MB/s
slightly above the Class 4 rating. Going to keep this card as my 'Movies' card for long trips and such.
Tested my Transcend 8GB Class 6 from my G1:
Sequential Read : 12.5 MB/s
Sequential Write: 6.0 MB/s
Just meeting Class 6 requirements. Will put my daughter's movies on it.
SanDisk 16GB Ultra "Class 4"

Hi,
Had my SGSII for a few weeks now and I've filled my internal SD memory. Was hoping you guys could help me.
I'm in need of a 32gb class 10 micro SD card for all my HD content. Do any of you flash-a-holic's know of anywhere I can purchase one from? I'm sure I'm not the only one wanting upgrade the memory!!!
Cheers

I have such one from Amazon. It' s from a company I never heard of but works in my SGS II since I unpacked it perfectly and stable. Has lifelong guarantee.
Video rec to sd is nice and smooth and fast, divx videos stored on this class 10 msd play perfect.
Just search in Amazon.....

I have a Sandisk 32gb class 4. It stores 5 MB/s. I have a somewhat unknown 16gb class 6 and it is 15-16 MB/s! So buying cards can be very difficult and rather surprising.

I just checked the app, if you do not mount the sd card it tests /mnt/sdcard (the internal memory) but if you do mount the sd card it does test /mnt/sdcard/external_sd. For me the app works.
I think testing on a pc with a card reader is the only way to get comparable results. I don't trust the phones doing a proper job on this. My numbers above are done using H2testw 1.4.
My 32GB class 4 is 9MB/s Write and 14MB/s Read.
I'm quite happy with that.
Here is the result of my Sandisk 32 GB Class 2
What is this program?

Btw using SD Tools (the app people in previous posts used to test speeds) I get 10.8 MB/s writing and 21.7 MB/s reading.. so it's pretty good..
I'm looking to buy an SD card (in the UK) but having never bought one i dont know which to get since there's about 50,000 choices. I dont really want to spend much more than £15 and im sure 16gb will be enough.
If anyone can offer any suggestions i'd really appreciate it.
buy a cheap one and watch it break... get a decent branded one - i have samsung class 10
I bought one samsung class 10 16gb, 32$ on ebay.
like bigmrb says, get a decent branded one and forget about it
Is this the kind of thing i should go for?
It seems very cheap, am i missing something?

Depends on the manufacturer, i also have a Sandisk 8GB class 4 and it is quite fast but if your really concerned about speed then get a class 10, only reason i got a class 10 is that it was on sale but i just wanted a 32GB card regardless if it was class 4 or 10

Very true !
I got the Silicon Power 32GB Class 4 microSD. Haven't had a problem with it, was cheap (AUD $44) but is quite slow (about 2-3MB/s) which is expected from a Class 4 card.
Btw class 10 won't make huge difference in ur phone compared to class 4 but when copying to pc its a massive difference
How about this one? 16gb Samsung class 10 for £13?

Hello Let me get staight to the point....So after 3 months of owning my s2 I just realised that the sd card in it was a 8gb class 2 micro sd card. And that just won't do! So I've been scouring the internet for some kind of a good sd card. Of course I want the best for the best right? So I've been trying to find a 16GB class 10. But I don't want to pay too much money for it.
So I've found this sd card:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0054KHY8C/ref=s9_simh_gw_p147_d0_g147_i2?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=1Y1NVT4GBQ6KCPJC1XEG&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=467128533&pf_rd_i=468294
And this one:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00698ZUHK/ref=s9_simh_gw_p147_d0_g147_i7?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=1Y1NVT4GBQ6KCPJC1XEG&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=467128533&pf_rd_i=468294
So can anyone help me choose a right one? and maybe provide some links? I would really be glad if it was on amazon.co.uk only
Thanks a lot
i don't think that a class 10 card will be that much different from class 6 card for use with the SGS2.
you better stick with SanDisk Or Samsung cards , even if they are a little expensive but they are good quality.
Good supplier good brand name is all i would bother with . Been running a no name class 2 16Gb for months no problems . But it would have been a own brand product from one of the big outlets probably Amazon .
jje
Class 4 is fast enough I think. Using a sandisk 32gb class 4 with no issues at all regarding read/write speed.
Here's my 8gb integral ultima pro class 10, its pretty fast.

Transcend 16GB Class 6, quite a performer with Class 10 speeds.

i've got mine sandisk 32gb class 4 cause i need a lot of space for music and some movies...pretty good for 243 saudi riyals.
Stick with sandisk or transcend and you won't go wrong. In terms of class, i don't think it will make that big of a difference on your phone. Just stick above class 4 and you should be fine.
Hey
I got one of these. its a great cards for the money and its from a trustable source as there are many fakes out there

I am waiting for this one to my S2: SanDisk 32GB Mobile Ultra Micro SD (SDHC) Card - Class 10 UHS-1
what do you think?
Definitely one of the best! Good choice. I'm waiting for the same one!
Sent from my GT-I9100
I would never buy anything other than sandisk. Got countless ones knocking around in various sizes and classes, been trodden on, dropped in water, in and out of different phones, into readers upside down and back to front and never an ounce of problems. Rock solid.
I can just confirm that, tried with others but finally I have always bought sandisk. Now the only other card is 8GB which I get in Nokia 5800 sales pack.
Sent from my I9100 @syiah5 using xda premium app
I bought http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/...s/MB-MSBGA/EU?subsubtype=micro-sd-accessories and I'm pretty satisfied with it. I had crazy luck with the store which was selling it under the real price and bought it for only ~25 euros. Two days later (and ~20 more sold microsd cards to all my friends) they corrected the price.
Anyways, being class 10, this card is awesome. Read speeds are very high, and I don't see any difference between the internal memory and this card either, although I haven't done any real tests, just the everyday usage.
Also, I have huge amount of it filled with music and pictures, and the phone seems to cope with it just fine, so I give you full recommendation for this one.
PS: It came with two year warranty, even here in Serbia!
Always buy Sandisk Also I think the class difference is only apparently when taking HD videos to prevent stuttering when recording.

The class rating of your micro SD card generally defines how quickly information can be read from or written to the card.
If you’re recording a lot of high-definition videos and snapping high-megapixel shots, Class 6 and above is enough.Higher number will ensure that your device won’t slow down between shots.
Hi,
A small question - I have heard of many problems from people trying to work with a 64GB microsd on the S3.
Sould i buy a 32 or a 64 GB card?
A 64GB card may fail (thus burning my money)?
Is there a way to load files greater than 4GB and the S3 will read them properly - such as movies etc.?
Thanks!
32 GBs is plenty of memory and with 64 it will be definitely slower than 32

Me too, I've had a 64GB Sandisk card in my phone since the phone was launched and have never had a problem with it.
Any other comments regarding the speed?
does the card comes boxed with EXFAT format?
Probably yes AS this is the best FAT for 64GB. Speeds will be to the point that you should not put any APP data on it, photos will refresh slow (Due to MediaCollector having to scan whole 64GB).
It shouldnt be a problem in S3 with built memory, so go for it

I've used a 64gb and now a 128gb card in my S3 with no problem.
Yes! AS you see people are using even 128GB. Jest make sure it aint cheap card from market.
Im using 32GB and putting any APP info on it makes them sometimes unusable (Like 3D games are loading for ages!)

A lot of music, for instance. I have a 64 Gb SanDisk Voyager Go (with built in OTG MicroUSB port) filed with music. My next step might be a 128 Gb MicroSD card.

Sent from my Sprint Samsung Galaxy SIII on TouchWiz 4.4.2 with Conquest: Singularity v2.2, Ktoonsez' latest kernel and the latest Philz Touch Recovery.
I bought the 64gb when it first came out and was priced at $300 lol. I got it on sale for $40. Talk about a total screw you fee for early adopters. Works fine. I have 30gb of music on it. I bought the Sandisk class 10 which seems pretty fast and have never had to wait. They even have a nice sandisk app that helps with moving files around between internal and external sd cards.

I too have a SanDisk 64Gb class 10 card and it works great. I have a bunch of TV show loaded along with music.

Hi,
A small question - I have heard of many problems from people trying to work with a 64GB microsd on the S3.
Sould i buy a 32 or a 64 GB card?
A 64GB card may fail (thus burning my money)?
Is there a way to load files greater than 4GB and the S3 will read them properly - such as movies etc.?
Thanks!

Why? If you do such a Statement you should also justify it.
I bought a 64 GB class 10 together with the S3 over 2 years ago. A need a lot of space, because a have a large music library.
So far there have never been problems or lags.

32 GB's memory is quite enough,if bigger,there would be more time to scan the whole disk.Would lower the speed.

Well, in my case 32 GBs aren't enough. As already mentioned my music library is about 30 GBs large. Therefore I need at least 64 GB.
And because I'm using a class 10 card, I almost doesn't feel a difference in speed between the internal memory and the sd.
Summary for the threadstarter:
If you really need a lot of space, it doesn't matter which card ist slower or faster. You have to buy at least the 64 GB card.
If you don't need that much and it doesn't look like you're going to need it in the near future, then you should of course buy the 32GB. You safe money and (a little bit) speed.

Yeah.I would agree with your summary.
BTW,your music library is really huge.Is it difficult to find out a specific music from so many music in your music library?
