Hi all,
This should be a quick answer...
How do I know what class my micro sd card is? Its a San Disk 8Gb. Can I assume the little 2 in a circle is the class? Would I be better getting a class 6 card?
Thanks.
Owen.
corect the number in the circle is the class. I running a class 6 samsung and in all honesty no earth shattering diff in 99% of thing phone can do

quick answer, yes it's (potentially) faster
However my Sandisk memory card doesn't have circle and number. Then how can l find out which class it is?
this is going to be hard for you to find out.. so let me try to be clear as possible and god help you with the steps.
first . you pull your memory card out...................
..................
read the number -_-

Hello terzer,
without number on the card only a transfer test can give you an answer.
When you have an adapter to use the card with your pc card reader, you
can stop the time to transfer e.g. 100 MB to the card. Devide the 100 MB
by the time and you have the writing transfer rate (e.g. for 10 s:
100 MB / 10 s = 10 MByte / s ), repeate this with reading the 100 MB
back and you have the reading transfer rate.
Class 2 - 2 MB/s minimum writing
Class 4 - 4 MB/s minimum writing
Class 6 - 6 MB/s minimum writing
Class 10 - 10 MB/s minimum writing
Stop time after finished copy process - pc somtimes uses write cache
and displays multiple of real rate.

There's a sd card speed tester on the market. I forget the exact name. Try that to find your class.
sent from my dhd
I test transfer speeds with "J Disk Benchmark". No idea if it's the best or anything, but it gets the job done and it's free

It's "SD Card Speed Test". I guess someone with a huge imagination named it
Just ordered a new 16Gb Class 10 Transcend card from 7dayshop.com £16.45 delivered
Just have to wait an age for RM to deliver it, over Christmas.

this will be far more accurate than the class rating on the card and you can really compare cards decisively
Hmmm just used "J Disk Benchmark" to test my SD CARD it suposed to be a 16 GB class 4 . read speed 2,4 MB write speed 1,4 MB so its more a class 2 than a class 4 card !!
My 8gb class 4 Samsung maxed out 6 Mbs transfer speed last night.

This new thread because I think this microsd deserves it
I've seen people looking for class6 and even class10 microSD cards, hoping for some wonderful performance, which is fine.
I did some testing on the memorycard I got at home and actually found out that one card I bought almost out of sudden impulse is the best of the bunch.
It's a 4 gb class 4 by Kingston, did score some nice number in h2testw, actually better than my SDHC class 6 16gb by transcend.
So i decided to buy a 16gb class4 by Kingston and this is the outcome:
Warning: Only 15287 of 15288 MByte tested.
Test finished without errors.
You can now delete the test files *.h2w or verify them again.
Writing speed: 8.78 MByte/s
Reading speed: 15.7 MByte/s
H2testw v1.4
I must say I'm very pleased...
I got it for 21 £ (about 25 €).
Wish u all a nice day!
S.
I just bought the exact same card and waiting for it to arrive.
We'll see how it will perform.
Thanks anyway for your test's.
I'm running CrystalDiskMark right now to find out more about performance of this card!
Best Regards.
S.
Can you link us please
Where did you get it from?
CrystalDiskMark bench
...and here's the Crystaldiskmark test I just finished running (see attach).
Got it online from MyMemory
S.
Got the same one from mymemory via their ebay store. Using with a 1.5GB Ext3 partition for a2sd+. Using STT (from the Market), initial results were 4 + 4, after implementing sdcardfix got read up to 12. Using via the PC though in a sd adaptor, not ran any tests but copied just over 3GB in about 15 mins. V impressed seeing as it cost £21.99.

wow, so many coincidences, i have the exact card too, and is a speed demon indeed
Is the class 10 a lot faster than class 4 ? I doubt it! anybody got some benchmarks?
Well, according to this thread named "Kingston microSD 16GB Class 10 review"
the 16gb class 10 from kingston is just 10 mb seq write and 19 mb seq read vs this class 4 which is 9 mb seq write and 15 mb seq read

yeah, and scientifically, class ratings are only to rate minimum speeds, and most of them pass the mark waaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy over
Yep
And now for the economics of it:
kingston 16gb class 4 (+ some luck) = 24 €
kingston 16gb class 10 = 90 €
Just keep the luck factor in mind...

I too have this same card and it is very good!
Cost me £20 from mymemory and performs really well.

In the search for ultimate performance, I swapped out my 16GB Class 2 for a Kingston 16GB Class 10, and how dissapointing it is!!
Test results using Crystal Disk Mark under Windows 7 with FAT32 partitionswere generally as follows. I also carried out the tests using SD Card Speed Test in Android and also using various settings but always with similar results...
Class 2: Sequential Read 16.67 MB/s; Write 5.289 MB/s
Class 10: Sequential Read 13.04 MB/s; Write 6.190 MB/s
Is this just a duff card!? Anyone else with Class 10 benchmarks???
Found it here for about £7 is this likely to be a fake? How do you know?

purely from the good reviews on here ive got one from mymemory for £19.99with an adapter....
hi, after reading all the messages, i'm thinking that my Kingston 16gb CL4 is dead...she's slower than my old kingston 8gb cl2.
Under SST sometimes it said "class unknown" or "class2" under windows it can't write above 1mo/s
purchase to mymemomy.com, thinking i going to return it for warranty
Hi guys. I bought a Kingston Class 4, 16 GB but it's very slow!!!
With Windows 7 the maximum writing speed is less then 4MB/s at best.

The class shows the minimum read/write speed of the card as shown below
Rating Read (Mb/s) Write (MB/s) Class
13× 16.0 2 2
26× 32.0 4 4
40× 48.0 6 6
66× 80.0 10 10
It is possible that a Name brand class 6 card, could out perfom a no name class 10 card as the speeds are minimum, I would tend to avoid anything slower than class 4 as it MAY introduce lag involving SD read/write operations
To those who have 32gb cards, what brands are they?
Contemplating between transcend and sandisk. transcend is a bit cheaper though. I just dont know anyone who can vouch for transcend.
I bought one from MyMemory.co.uk, just their own branded ones was about £52 class 4 couldn't be happier with it

On looking up the official standards of MicroSD cards http://www.sdcard.org/developers/tech/sdhc/ it only talks about differences in speed ratings such as class 2, class 4 ect. So I assume that HTC are advertising the Desire HD as only supporting class 2 MicroSD cards. I would like to know if anyone can confirm if using the USB cable to transfer data to a PC is actually getting faster speeds using a higher class MicroSD card than class 2 standards?
HTC isn't saying that the DHD supports class 2 only it just doesn't specify. (the micro-sd 2.0 thing is completely different to what you're thinking about the 2.0 means it supports micro-SDHC not that it supports class 2 only. and about the speed difference, I have a class 2 8GB micro-SDHC and that writes at 2MB/s and reads at 4MB/s, a class 4 16GB that writes at 4MB/s and reads at 5MB/s, and finally a class 10 32GB that writes at 12MB/s and reads at 15MB/s. (All tested on my Desire HD) So there is a HUGE difference between classes 2 , 4 and 10 when copying through USB.
Hello,
what class 10 32GB do you have?
best regards huggy
It's a Kingston. I would tell you the model number but I chucked the rubbish away.

Hi, just thought I'd create a thread for people buying the HTC Sensation, but also intend to buy a 32GB microSDHC.I will probably get a Class 10 type myself, but if anyone can link to lower class cards that out perform's Lexar's Class 10 card I, and others will be interested.
Please can we ignore any unknown brand cards, and anything relating to eBay. - As we know likely to be fake.
I found this card and if you have tried it, or are going to try it I will be interested in knowing how well it performs. As I intend to buy it for my new phone in a few weeks time.
£40...http://www.lambda-tek.com/componentshop/index.pl?origin=gbase10.5&prodID=2106472
What class is that card? It mentions class 10 in the description which is confusing, but that price is awesome if it is a class 10. In fact it's pretty good for a class 2 card!
[edit] just looked closer at that card and it is a class 10. wow!
That's either a misprice or a fake. No way should it be that cheap. Even on ebay those are nearly double the price....from HK!!
Anyone ordered one yet?
Legit company. Checkout 32gb card thread in galaxy s2 accessories thread.
Apparently no stock though. I googled the manufacturer number and it relates to Class 10.
You know something, I wonder if they have put a cheap price up just to drive alot of web traffic to his website. Maybe permanently out of stock. Will ring them tomorrow to find out.

I upgraded from a 16GB Sandisk "ultra" to Lexar 32GB class 10, I noticed a huge speed increase, now the photo gallery loads pictures much faster than before, copying files is faster and nandroid backup is MUCH faster (over 1GB data to backup)
I don't know if Lexar is the fastest but for the price and performance it's very good.
When you consider sandisk extreme class 10 normal sd,can write 20 or 30mb/sec it is quite slow, for a class 10, but beggars cant be choosers, and its fairly new tech for microsdhc i guess. UFS-I looks ace. Theres a toshiba 16gb microsdhc that does 20mb write. Can people find out if the Sensation is UFS-I conpatible? Bet price is significantly dearer though.

As a photographer I’ve been using Lexar cards for many years and find them very fast, solid and reliable.
I will be getting one to put into my SENSATION, once it is released in the UK (just in time for my June upgrade yipee).

Yes, I've used them quite a few times in the past. Whenever there's been a problem (2 cards were not delivered even though they were apparently dispatched) they have sorted it out quickly and efficiently with just a single email.
I'd certainly recommend them.
SanDisk 32GB Class 2
Kingston 32GB Class 4
Patriot 32GB Class 10
^ tested all 3 of this and stayed with the last one. For the price and size/speed thats the best. As I don't trust ADATA nor WINTEC along with Lexer. So if anyone interested seriously look in to it.

I can safely say this is by far the fastest card I used and not only does it meets the minimum class requirement but it exceeds it with flying colors. I have placed benchmark at the bottom so others who is thinking about buying this card can view it to make better decisions. For the price I give this card 7/10 and for speed 10/10, but thats far as I would go to defend this card.

Thank you for the reply !
install this on your sensation and your read speed will increase. it says it only works for rooted devices but I tried installing on mine and it increased the speed especially the loading of videos and photos in gallery. Im not sure if it installed or not because I can't find the sd booster icon anywhere but it definitely speed up the read speed.

I have had some issues with SD cards in my phone, I emailed HTC support and they replied stating the following "Bill, your device is compatible with the SD 2.0 standard, i.e., it can theoretically read and write to microSD cards up to 32 GB.
Please verify the class of the 32 GB card you purchased. Our devices read and write to storage cards at Class 2 speeds. Although Class 4 SD cards will normally function in these devices, they may not recognize Class 6 or Class 8 cards."
Personally I wouldnt put in anything less than a class 10 so I get the fastest transfer speed while loading up music etc.

I'm personally rocking an ADATA 16GB Class 10 from newegg
This area is a minefield. I personally have a class 10 32GB card but in hindsight, a class 4 or 6 would have done.
Generally most card have a higher read speed than write speed, which makes the "class" rating useless. For most users, read speed is most important . Very few devices require class 10 write speeds (with the exception of professional class cameras). You need to avoid class 2 but otherwise you can only go wrong by buying knock off cards from eBay.

I attended a training held by htc for the sensation and they said the phone would work with a class 2 although it is highly suggested to use class 4 or higher. The reason being is that if you are recording video at 1080p a class 2 card will have errors since it cannot write fast enough. I am currently using a SanDisk class 4 32gb card with no errors.

I had a class 2 16Gb but I was getting jumpy videos in 1080p. I've now got a 16Gb class 10 pny from play.com for £16.99. No jumpy videos any more and gallery seems a bit better.

I have a 16 GB Kingston class 10 micro SD and it works quite fine. Now I am thinking of increasing my storage and browsed the rates of 32 GB SD cards. Although they seem affordable but the reviews for them are quite bad. Is it advisable to buy a 32GB class 10 SD card?.
Further, if yes, which brand would you suggest?

goo for sandisk or samsung cards
don't ever buy verbatim or strontium.....
SAMSUNG
Got a Samsung PRO 16 GB C10. There were two variants i.e PRO and PLUS. The PLUS variant is a little costly but if you have got some extra money its surely worth it. The card claims to have a 48 MBPS read speed. What I am getting is a decent write speed ranging from 9-15 MBPS.
Sandisk
Go for sandisk. I m using Sandisk 32 gb class 10 sd card for 7 months there is no problems yet
Try Sony SR-32UYA
