You'll have to use microSDHC on the gTablet (or any device) if you want anything larger than 2GB
microSD (and the larger SD Cards) max out at 2 GB
microSDHC (SDHC in general) goes up to 64 GB I believe -- but only 32 GB cards are starting to be available...
I have a WINTEC 16GB rated at Class10 speeds that works fine. The price was right -- only $28 via NewEgg

Agreed Sandisk is a reputable company with a good product. I heard of to many issues with other "brands".
For any kind of computer memory I stick with the brands that I know and trust:
Kingston
Patriot
Sony
It's just too much of pain to lose your data and memory is ridiculously cheap these days.
I would throw in that the adata microsdhc cards you can get from Newegg are usually priced right and work great. I had one that went bad, but adata warranty replaced it very promptly. I have a few that I use with my Nintendo DS, which can be fussy, and they've always been great. Lifetime warranty too.

of course,
but will it support more than 8GB?
Yes it will. I got mine from Fry's at 179.00 plus tax. And so far so good works well enough for my movies. but only had it a few days. check outpost.com
cool, i thought maybe the bus size couldn't handle such addresses.
i guess SDHC's addressing changes solves that problem...

What about TOPRAM SDs?
Does anyone have a SD with this brand?
A few months ago I bought supposedly an 8Gb SD but it really was a 4Gb with a different formatation. It didn't work with my Universal and once formatted it only recognized 4Gb...
Fortunately the seller gived me a full refund.

Considering getting a 32gb sdhc card for my epic4g. any problems noted? any advice?
You should be fine with about anything, but I have been burned a few times on spending less on SD memory. Buy a cheap 32 and you'll be lucky to get 20. IMHO. That or a Class 6 will really r/w at 2mb.

I recommend the Kingston one that just came out. It's a class 4 as opposed to SanDisk's class 2. I got mine for $87 on Newegg, but it seems they've upped the price to $109 now.
These only seem to be available online though or that is my experience.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9276608&postcount=5
ordered the sensation today and wanna ask first how is the card that comes with the device? are people using it or most of you bought a new one?
2nd, which card would you recommend?
It's not a bad card, 8gb class 4 so it's fast enough for most everything. What is too bad is that the phones doesn't have more built in memory. I can fill 8gb fast so for me, a 16 GB card is minimum and the higher the class the better imho.
There are a lot of cards out there, I would recommend a name brand unit and at least class 6. I've got a 32gb class 10 from newegg and it works great (cant find link right now).

good enough? or too much?
That's a link to the seller's feedback so I don't know what item you were looking at. Feedback seems good though.

You need a micro sd. That link is the wrong one.
ok i give up.. can anyone recommend me on a good and not expensive 16gb card?
I brought a 16gig pny card, its been very good so far.
Newegg has the ADATA 16GB Class 10 card for $25 right now. I bought it for $35 when I got my phone last month & I thought even that price was worth it
Try not to buy anything that are related to storage on ebay or online in general, e.g. microsd card, external harddrive, usb stick...they tend to be always fake. Best to go to local stores with good reputation for these things.
I bought a Lexar 32GB class 10 microSDHC card.
17 MB/sec read
8 MB/sec write
this was using SD tool for android.
I am hoping that once S-OFF is achieved, and we get cyanogen running on this device, the speeds will improve. The card cost me about $90 shipped, and came with a USB to microSDHC adapter. At this point I am very disapointed in the card's performance. Even when using my computer to transfer the data to it, the best I got was about 8 MB/sec write.
Also after a full format on Windows 7, the card only shows 29.8 GB capacity
though the detailed figure was 32,005,685,248 Bytes
I am hoping this card is not a fake. Can anyone else confirm their benchmarks with a 32 GB lexar class 10?
locate a Lexar 16gb class 6 from a reputable dealer.
can be had for around $20.
I get around 7-9mb write and around 17-20mb read speed.
seems like about the same speed as the class 10 Lexar above.
32gb version is too expensive still. don't understand why they cost almost 5 times more when the capacity is only double.

Your capacity is correct. The difference is due to the fact that a properly calculated byte, kilobyte, megabyte, gigabyte, or terabyte is calculated in base-2. The manufacturers have long been in the habit of calculating in base-10, hence the difference in what's claimed and what you actually see.

I think it might be a bit much to imply that any online vendor should be avoided when purchasing flash memory. As long as it's from a reputable vendor (not a ebay seller or amazon seller), you should be OK and in the event that you end up with a fake you would be protected by the vendor's return policy.

Like white i purchased a lexar 32gb class 10 card. Although transferring to the card was slower than claimed from my hard drive but transferring from my old micro sd to the new one i recieved much higher speeds with a class 6 limit due to the old card. As for onlkne vendors i have purchased all my external/internal and sd cards from ebay. I have had 1 problem but that was my fault because the offered price was too good to be true

hmm i read an article on the main xda page about microsd cards.. it says the sandisk one has better i/o and random reads and writes.. so now im really lost..well in the end.. u still cant transfer more than 4gb file onto your microsd card.

why cant you transfer more than 4gb file onto the card?
sorry for not being specific. You cant transfer more than a 4gb file because that's the limit for a fat32 microsd.... i believe.. lol
Yep, fat32 has a file size limit of 4Gb.
now i doubt there will be any difference between sd cards. We need a2sd or d2sd in order to evaluate better. On the HD2 there was a major difference between class 2 and a class 6 card. On the sensation i have tried class 2 and class 6 the performance seems the same.
Hey everyone,
Newegg has the ADATA 32 GB MicroSDHC Class 10 Card for only $60 Shipped right now.
It's $70 before using a $10 Off $50 Dollar coupon with the code: NEWCUSTOMER10
It's technically only for new customers but... you could always make a new account.
*Sorry, I can't post links yet*
Anyone has any LONG experience with this card?
I bought the Patriot class 10 one a few months back. Many reviewers said that the card had a lot of file corruptions problem with their Android phones, and that didn't happen in the first month. Mine has been working fine for 3 months, and then a lot of file corruption started to happen. I am in the process of RMA-ing, but I guess I will just sell it and get one from another brand. Seeing how many people are having problem with the Patriot card, I don't want to carry another time bomb in my phone.

No, I mean the card that OP is referring to. Not just any ADATA card or any micro SDHC.
ADATA is one of the more reliable MicroSDHC 32GB cards if you go by the reviews on Newegg

Mate, run it through H2Test. You can probably get away with just running the 1st 16gb, I use 32gb but I'm a pedantic little sh!t.
If it's fake, it will fail at around the 8gb mark.
The 1st 2,4 or 8gb's are usually fine but anything after gets corrupted. H2Test will let you know if the card is real or fake.
I got a 256gb micro sd card off ebay from a seller that was there since 2006, good reputation and very little negative feedback. The card was packaged like a Samsung card, had everything right. Ran it through H2Test and found after the 1st 7.5gb that everything was corrupted.
I found out why the seller has such a good rating as I complained, got my money back, within 30 minutes at 10:30pm at night, but then couldn't leave feedback.
Most people throw the sd card into their PC or phone, it says that it's xxx size and they think it''s fine. Trouble is, after they fill up the 8gb then they loose anything they save be it photo's, video or documents.
Very upsetting if you take a photo of your kids or someone you love only to find it doesn't exist later, just a header with no data...
Unfortunately there are a lot of sellers out there who either honestly don't know or are out to sell to suckers and these knockoff cards are becoming far too common and are almost, if not are, indistinguishable from the real items...
Lesson here, if it's too good to be true, it usually is...
Good luck with your card, but at that price I REALLY am suspicious and you would have to be some kind of idiot not to test it out before loosing those precious memories forever....
Bro you get what you pay for, and 256gb run north of $150 range so if you see a version going for 8 pounds which is what one that's like 32gb goes, then youre likely to get that as well.
Never had a prob with the Sandisk Ive had it for a year and a half and outlasted my phone that just soft bricked. I highly recommend their stuff, Ive never tried the Samsung versions, they were not out when I was shopping for mine at the time
