Would a class 4 Micro SD card perform better than a class 10 micro sd card on an android phone?
Also, i made a second partition with link2sd on my SD card. How would i transfer that over onto a new SD card?
Thanks

1 year ago, class 10 cards performed worse in random access (mostly used for apps and games), but apparently the newer class 10 cards perform just as well or even better than lower class cards. So I would suggest getting a SanDisk class 10 card, they are currently considered being one of the best.
Yeah, i ordered a class 10 high speed SanDisk SDXC card and was just wondering. Thanks for that answer though. Quite helpful. Just need an answer to the second question now

You should, many people won't notice your question somewhere in the bottom of an offtopic thread.
Yeah, but i didn't want to just make a thread for a little question. It's not that important.

Hey KindaUndisputed,
If you're interested in seeing which SD card will perform better for you, you should test it with CrystalDiskMark 3. It's really easy to use and you'll mostly be interested in looking at the small byte ranged 4K random read/write speeds. This is important for running ROMs from SD or games and things.
I've noticed that my SanDisk 32GB Class 4 and Samsung 32GB Class 10 are pretty similar, so it's kind of just the luck of it I guess. SanDisk is usually pretty reliable though.
Thanks for that response, will probably try that, I although I think I'll be sticking with the 64GB anyways as I need the extra storage.

Oh yeah absolutely. Just if you wanted to test the speeds of some other cards in comparison to the Mobile Ultra. I'd have to think that that 64GB card would have superior speeds in every category though.
Yeah, thanks again

All of this talk about class 10 cards having bad random access speeds was valid a year ago, not any more. Times change and with it so does technology. A decent class 10 card nowadays doesn't have these problems.

Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
Any class would work really, 10 is the fastest I think although I'm not too sure and a class 4 or 6 should be ok as well

I will have a look, i can't seem to find any class 4 SD's at 64GB, only 6, 10 but i have had problems with a 32GB SD class 6 card before.
that's the UK as i'm from the united kingdom, it probably be worth going for a class 10? ultra or mobile ultra? is there any difference?

I'm from the UK, that's the one (the first one) I bought, from Amazon as well. It's quite cheap really. I don't know about drastic changes in speed but I don't think there are many cheaper 64GB micro SD cards anyways?

Anyone know why my computer seems to hate my new SD card? Whatever I try to do with it, literally anything to do with the SD card, the computer slows down and nothing to do with the SD card works. I can't open it in my computer although it is there and I can't even use Minitool

The Play only supports up to 32 gb from what I have read so I would not recommend a 64 GB card unless you see someone else with a Play who has one and says it works.
I asked in another thread and got told it worked?
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
Well then, it probably does. Sorry for misleading you, it's just that the specs where ever I read them say "up to 32 gb". But if Play owners said it works it probably does.
I thought the same thing as you.

You can do it from your phone, but I did it from my laptop. Put the MicroSD card in the SD adapter and put it in my laptop, went to my computer and right clicked on it and selected "Format"
Then I set the cluster size to "default", format to "Fat32". hit enter and waited. Been using it with zerio issues and runs fast...
Thanks, how would i do it from my phone?

ou can do it from Recovery... go to mount&storage, you will see "Format SD card" at the bottom.... I would recommend doing this on your phone as it takes a lot longer to format on your phone then form your PC. MAKE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR SDCARD FIRST. To play it safe do not cut and paste your phones sd card contents.. it will tkae longer but copy them... that way if something happens like power goes out or someone pulls the card out, you can still copy over the original files. I cut and pasted once on my old 32gb card... and my laptop shut off, lost a ton of files i could never get back... it sucked.
This one is cheaper: http://www.amazon.co.uk/SanDisk-64G...3?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1344513391&sr=1-3-catcorr

Never tried them.
Just read reviews on them.
As far as I can tell, its not a bad call... but I see where others say it's slow.
I'll always recommend SanDisk, but that's because I know they are a trusted brand.

If the card is formatted as FAT32, you shouldn't have any problems with it.
The 32GB cards are SDHC, 64GB+ cards are SDXC. It's a different format so 32GB and 64GB cards are not the same. The Xperia Play officially supports SDHC so that is why the specs say that it is up to 32GB. Saying that a lot of SDHC devices (especially later ones) are compatible with the SDXC format. I haven't tried it myself but I've seen plenty of other people saying that 64GB cards are working with their Xperia Play so you should be fine.

I have tested the read/write speeds using sd tools with 3 different sd cards: 4gb class 4 sandisk, 16gb class 10 samsung, and 32gb sandisk uhs1. It seems that each card doesnt exceed 4mb/s write and 8mb/s read speeds on my e4gt on calkulin gb rom 3.0. When these cards are tested on my pc, i experience the correct speed ratings.
Is there a cap that is on the e4gt that i need to modify? I played with the cache sizes 128 2048 3072 and 4096, very minimal changes and all tend to fall in the same speed ranges stated above.
I tried switching different kernels but still had no luck. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Could it possibly be Calkulins GB 3.0 rom? I would hate to flash another rom just for trial and error if someone can confirm it's not the rom.
