MicroSDHC UHS-1 - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know if this tablet supports the new SDHC UHS-1 high speed microSD cards?
They don't advertise anywhere if the card reader is SD 2.0 or 3.0 standard.
Was looking at these things, but it's a waste of money if the device doesn't support it at full speed.

And what is the largest size it can take?

I think 64gb

It's my understanding that the UHS-1 is a designation for video recording. It does accommodate larger sizes, but is still Class 10 speed. I've seen people post on here that they're running 64GB cards ok. Even saw a "rumor" that someone else had a working 128GB card working. In my case, if I need more than the 32GB microSD I have in it, I dock & hook up my 3TB external USB drive.

Sorry for bump but have anyone tried 64 or 128gb?

It's not that big (16GB) but i'm using a UHS-1 card and the tf300 seems to accept it just fine for storage.

I have a UHS-1 64GB card and it works great.

Thanks. I'm also struggling which SD card I should pick.
I have some bad experience previously with my Milestone. I heard Android phones have poor compatibility with fast SD cards, especially Class 10 cards. But unluckily I needed fast SD card for Apps2Ext with limited ROM on my Milestone.
But now my phone has decent amount of ROM space, does it mean that I can live with a slow Class 4 SD card? Is there any advantage of using a fast, Class 6 or 10, card?
I want to hear the opinion from users of fast cards.
Thanks.

Don't know that I can answer your questions directly. Only reason I got the 16G class 6 was because it was cheap and available at the time. I don't put apps on the sdcard and previously was working just fine with a 8G class 2. I just needed more space.
I bought a Ridata 16GB class 6 card and I usage a hard time getting the camera to save pictures to it. Always works for mundane things, but a soon as I want to take pictures if my kids it craps out. I have to unmount and then take it out and put it back in to work. Looks like I should ignored the review from Newegg.

Micro SD Card List

Guys,
I am reading through a few of the threads, and some detailing specifically with the SD cards, and the information is sporadic and spread out.
Can we get a thread that is updated with a list of cards known for working?
Name of card, size, etc.?
I am searching for a card to get with my TF700 when I order it from Amazon, but I can't seem to nail down which cards actually work after the firmware update. I am positive I am not the only one.
_______________________________________________________________________
WORKING
SanDisk 32 GB class 4
WinTeck 32 GB class 10
Sandisk MicroSDHC Ultra 64gb class 6 works after firmware update. Both in docking and tablet.
SanDisk 32GB class 4 HC (graphite color)
Sandisk Extreme 32GB SDHC class 10 in the slot formatted exFAT.
ADATA 32GB class 10 microSDHC
The following cards work with .22 firmware
1 GB no name, made in china
2 GB san disk
4 GB san disk class 2
NOT WORKING
SanDisk Ultra 16GB class 10 HC (red/gray)
This is the card i have, a 64gb.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ls_o03_s00_i00
My issue is, even after the update, when copying or moving items to it, my device freezes. I have this card in the tablet. Prior to the update, i had it in the dock. Reason being, movies wouldnt play from it when it was in the tablet. Since the update, the movies now play great. But copying/moving is now an issue. I havent see anyone else report this yet. Btw, the card is formatted at NTFS.

I ordered this one. http://www.amazon.com/ADATA-Micro-C...qid=1343572803&sr=8-1&keywords=adata+micro+sd
I'll let you know when it arrives.
Cool.
If we get enough responses, I will start listing them on the first post.
Let me know how that one works.
Ok, so I started keeping a list in the first post (we only have one so far).
So if anyone has ones they tried and worked, or ones that did not, lets post them and I will get them on the top page tonight.
Hopefully this will help everyone with their purchase, and even give Asus (Gary) something to go from.
Any 64gb card guys out there?
I am currently using a SanDisk 32 GB class 4 but also have a WinTeck 32 GB class 10. They both work great, play stored music and 1080p videos without stuttering. :good:
Sandisk MicroSDHC Ultra 64gb class 6 works after firmware update. Both in docking and tablet.
You may want to include lists for both working and NOT working cards. I have one of each:
Working: SanDisk 32GB class 4 HC (graphite color)
Not working: SanDisk Ultra 16GB class 10 HC (red/gray)
The dock uses USB (2.0) host to manage SD cards, so shouldn't give many problems. I'm currently using Sandisk Extreme 32GB SDHC class 10 in the slot formatted exFAT.
I have used Sandisk 16GB class 4 microSDHC before and now I'm using ADATA 32GB class 10 microSDHC with pretty good speeds in the microSD slot (all formatted exFAT, 32KB block size).
Did not have much luck with NTFS on .21 and .22 builds, perhaps this changed with .26, but I'm happy with exFAT.
Might be useful to mention which firmware people are on too when it works and doesn't work.

Now the thread seems pretty SanDisk-oriented and it's just the most popular brand, not necessarily the best (either for the Infinity or in general).
we need others to post what they are using, especially if it is a different brand.
You can crop the lines which mention a few cards, my ADATA is hidden behind Sandisk at the moment

[Q] Help finding working Class 10 Micro SD card

I bought a card off Newegg and it doesn't work correctly. It works when mounted in it's USB reader and plugged in the dock. It works in my wife's ICS Galaxy S2. It works in every PC I've tried with the USB reader. However, in both my JB Galaxy S3 and TF700T, it will mount, but can't be written to. It seems like it's a software problem with JB, but I just don't know. It seems others have had similar issues.
What I'm looking for is a link to a Class 10 card that I can successfully use for the I/O lag fix for my TF700T. Newegg is preferred, Class 10 is a must, and 32 GB is the size I prefer. Let me know what's worked for you!
Thanks in advance
I am using this one but the 64GB version. Really fast.

Remember that "Class 10" is only the sequential write speed. There are Class 4 cards that are faster in random writes than some Class 10 cards.

Same one I'm using. I checked this thread hoping to find a recovery that supported exFAT for this tablet. I have Ziggy's TWRP 2.3.3.0 on my galaxy working with my 64GB card in exFAT without issue.
Currently I just formatted the card for the tab to FAT32.

Im running this card in my TF700 right now:
http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Micro...817389&sr=8-1&keywords=sandisk+64+GB+micro+SD
ANTUTU shows SDCard write at 27.9 MB/s Read was only 6.9MB/s tough.
Thanks for the replies so far, guys. I would think that sequential/random reads would be more important for the I/O fix than the writes, but that's assuming it doesn't block on writes.
Are you running the lagfix with these cards? Can you really see an improvement?

it works i saw a forum member mention he was using one
I thought so too. No reason that there is a limitation that limit it to use 64GB. Ok, I'm going to purchase SDcard 64Gb and test it out. Hopefully it work.
Yes it works fine, I'm using a SanDisk Class 10 64GB Micro SDXC card and have 0 problems. Not sure why phones/tablets always have "upgradable to 32GB" as their system specs when a 64GB card works fiine
I'm glad to hear that. Waiting for my salary this friday. Going to add more space to my phone. A lot of games inside

It works. Just reformat the 64GB microSDXC into FAT32 as well, on the computer (as a physical drive) - the kernel and the firmware doesn't support exFAT. Sure, FAT32 is a pain in the a** but is the only quick way in.
P.S. BTW, if any Android devices can actually read and write to microSDHC, they have extremely good chance of unofficially supporting SDXC - the electrical pinouts are the same, even SDIO commands are the same between those two SD cards, the only difference is file system that's already preformatted. (4 - 2,048 MB SD - FAT16 / 4 - 32 GB SDHC - FAT32 / 64 - 2,048 GB SDXC - exFAT)

Best MicroSd for Xperia L?

Hi..yesterday i bought xperia L...and i want to buy a microsd...WHICH MICRO SD IS BEST FOR XPERIA L? AND HOW GB?
THANK YOU
Sent from my X8 using xda app-developers app
I would certainly get a 16GB micro SD card to start.
Look at reviews on Amazon to see which is the best CLASS, and the class compatible with the L.
Example, class 10 16GB micro SDHC on Amazon, could be a good SD card for you.
Purchase an micro SDHC card. Also, check out read/write stats as well.
Confusing, but the more info out there, the better you are informed as a consumer.
Samsung might be good for a microSD card as well.
Sent from my C2104 using xda app-developers app
Basically any Class 10 microSD would be good. You don't have to buy the most expensive, but I also don't recommend the cheapest one, just buy one that's not some Chinese knockoff. You can get a fast 16 gig Sandisk class 10 card for less than $15 on Amazon (the red and grey one), that should be more than enough (I mean the speed of it). The size of it can be anything that's enough for you, I have an 8 GB one but 95% of it is empty, but for some other guy maybe a 32 GB card would still not be enough.
I agree.
You can also get a good deal on Sony microSD cards on Amazon as well.
But get an SDHC micro card, and at least 16GB, which should be plenty for apps, pix, and music.
