Good Question. I just got the SD card to work. I took the 16gig out of the EVO to test and the Xoom recognized it fine. Its a Samsung and I think its a class 6. I am going to get a faster card to test as soon as possible.
Should we get 16 gb cards for xoom since they are so much cheaper? Get one for 22 dollars compared to a 32 for 70

Is there any difference in the read/write speeds of these two cards? Since I'm only using about 4G of the SD card on my HD2 (part of which is for the system ROM to run DL's DesireZ port) I think it makes sense to use the faster of the two cards in my new Inspire, but I'd go with the HD2 16G card if they're the same just to give me the extra room if I ever need it.
Look on the SD card for a number with a half circle around it. This is the speed of the card. For everything except moving apps to SD a class 2 is fine. Class 6 is what I have and I have no issues with slowness.

I agree with Gunnyman. Look at the class of the SD first, then choose accordingly. I would recommend a class 6 or higher if you can, and a class 4 minimum. Class 6 and 8 seem to be the sweet spot for people wanting to buy a new card without breaking the bank, and are perfect speeds for doing anything on the mobile device.
Where would most of the speed increases come from anyway? I have a Nexus 1 and it pretty much has to have a micro SD card in it; I move as many apps as I can to it and everything runs pretty fast now.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I have a class 6 8G that came with my Inspire, as compared to the class 2 16G that came with the HD2. So I guess I'll stick with the 8G.

Same here, so I just use the 16gb from my HD2
Mine came with a 8GB Class 4, I then put in a 16Gb class 4, and it worked great and then found a great deal on a SanDisk 32Gb class 4 and that is what I have in the phone and it works great.
Anyone bought this 32 gb Micro Sd Card from ebay. I just got in the mail and so far so good my transfer rate from PC to SD a 360mb file is 4.60mbps while the regular sandisk 8gb is 6.20mps. Its cheap so wasn't surprise . Anyone else
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120746278677&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
CAN SOME MOVE THIS TO THE ACCESSORIES SECTION ,SORRY
i think Its cheap coz the class less than 6
maybe 4
the most important is the class
class 10 will be the best
its class 4
I bought one and got ripped off. It was labeled 32gig but it was only 4.

lol that sucks
but anyways, 32gb, whatever class it is, for $29 isnt bad
class 4 is good enough for a mobile phone. If you just use it to store mp's/photo's.
Higher then class 4 is only interesting when filming/photographing on a high resolution and thus need a high read/write speed.
Anyway, $29 for 32 gig is a very nice price!!
Still... don't know why this in the dev. forum

I bought a SD card and a thumb drive. Both turned out to be fakes from China. The 32 GB thumb drive only held 14 GB of data and was flaky at that. The SD card was slow and was also unbranded. I would be very careful about what data you save to it. It might just go south on you.
Keep an eye on sales ads. I just got a 8GB class 10 micro SD at bestbuy for $19.99
**This is in the dev thread because it was a mistake on the OP part. He asked for it to be moved, but the MODs have not done so. I suggest sending them a PM bro. Might get a better response.
There are free programs, like h2testw, you can download to test the sd cards and usb drives. I purchased one a while ago that was supposedly a 32gb, and windows detected it as a 32gb. I tested it and it was really 1GB.
BE REALLY CAREFUL INDEED,
I bought exactly the same 2 weeks ago on Ebay, same packaging exactly, about same price.
It was a fake that was only 2Go, with a ridiculous transfer rate of 2.2Mo/sec with downs to 150ko/sec
So I bought another one 32Mo, branded, class4, more expensive of course! (I also think we don't really more than class 4 unless your're really impatient when transferring big files from your PC to your SD card. Class 4 is already enough for the Sensation HD recording, and having class 10 wouldn't speed up any app except for some benchmarks that take SD card write/read into account)
Check microcenter. I picked up a 16 gig class 10 today for $28+tax... Well worth the price.

I took a chance on one of these. The seller has 100% positive feedback and has sold a ton of them. So hopefully it works out. He also will fully refund my money if it doesn't work. So reward outweighs the risk.

Has anyone every tried the Memorette 32gb microsd is it any good?
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
DO NOT BUY I bought one of these even after reading multiple reviews saying not to. Its a complete fake. When I got mine the speed test were showing that it was slower than my class 4 even though it said class 10. When I got it it said it was 23 GB than I formatted it and it then said 34 GB if I put anything more than 7 GB on it fails and I have to reformat it. I still use it but only to copy data from my tablet and computer
Well thanks

Thanks, here in mexico there are a lot of ratones!
Hello there, I would like to know if it is possible to install an app which full size is bigger than your sd? In my case I want to install nova3 but my sd card is only 2gb(actually 1.8) and nova takes 2gb of space. Since the Atrix 2 installs directly to sd card is it impossibly for me to play it unless I buy a bigger sd card?
I tried to look this up but nothing showed up...
Thanks beforehand

So getting close to the advertised speed, like I have with every other SanDisk, is unreasonable?
Your sdcard works right? Slow or fast it works right? I'd be happy.

My card seemed to work fairly well until it crapped out. SanDisk is sending a new one out so I'll test it out once I get it.

That's like buying a brand new sports car with a turbo boost leak and then being like "oh well". My 2.3 GB nandroid backups take about 13 mins. So TWRP is writing much slower.
I suggest checking my thread on the SD card you may need to reformat it and clean it up. Also try ROM toolbox pro to turn the write speed up. I write at 55 MB a sec
