32 gig flash drive for $20 - Asus Transformer TF700

since the dock has a usb 2.0 input i figured you guys might want to check this out. I went into the store yesterday and picked a few up. these things are SOLID and can be put on a keychain without any worry of something breaking off and losing it.
CHECK IT
I also picked up one of these for $25 at my local bestbuy, they arent on sale online but if you check your store out then they may be onsale.

thanks. I picked up the ScanDisk SDXC 64GB micro card for $50. I actually got two of them.
I like USB flash drives, but barely use them. Now I just keep micro cards in mobile devices such as Infinity or phone and use those the same way.

Samsung 32Gb Class 10 microsd

Just bagged one of these for £39.99, thought it was a good deal
http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=777_6&products_id=112725
Hello,
I have it, bought on Amazon at 32€
It works fine.
I bought Lexar 32gb class 10 for 47$...
www.amazon.com/Lexar-MicroSDHC-Memory-Reader-LSDMI32GBSBNAR/dp/B004AM610M
Waiting for delivery...
I can vouch for LEXAR. perfect at around 10MBPS for video files and ROM zips lol. Bought mine for 50
Thanks for the heads-up on this.
Been looking around for a while for a decent 32GB card and this seems to be the cheapest of it's kind. There are some cheaper ones around but a lower class of 6 or 4.

In for the updates.
I currently have a Patriot 32GB Class 10... It's awful. Likely the worst card on the market. I've had so many issues with it. It corrupts easily. It's happened a few times this year. Each time it did it I lost just about everything on the card. (Luckily I use TI Media Sync to back up my card to my FTP server.)
I don't use USB to mount the card as a drive that often. Usually I use Samba or something to wirelessly move files. But the times it has corrupted was when it was either sitting idle or I was watching a video.
I just ordered the ADATA 32GB Class 10 since it's got a lot of good reviews. But I'd like to see how you guys do with this card. I could always sell my ADATA card and buy this one if it turns out to be better.
EDIT:
Never mind. I canceled my order for the ADATA card and just ordered the US version of this one. I like Samsung products. Their SSDs are freaking amazing and their customer support has been really good so far. This one was only $2 more than the ADATA one so it wasn't worth the wasted time to try the ADATA first.

Been running ADATA 32G C10 card for quite a few months now . Not a single hiccup
ever ! Great card quality and highly recommended .
I am waiting for micro sd's to go on sale. Lexar 32gb one on amazon up to $66 ._.
Got the Samsung card today.
First off, it's the first and ONLY large capacity SD card I've put into my laptop that was recognized. My Laptop has recognized all cards 4GB and down, but it didn't recognize either of my 16GB or 32GB cards without asking to reformat them. I don't know why. I wasn't expecting my laptop to recognize this 32GB card. But it did. So that's a BIG plus.
Secondly, I'm using RoboCopy to move over all my stuff from my phone over USB to the new card in the SD slot. There's about 20GBs of crap to send over. Robocopy isn't telling me how fast it's going, but it's taking about 5 seconds to copy over 100 MB, so I put that at > 10MB/s easily. Probably a lot faster. I'll run crystal mark on it as soon as I get done copying my crap over and then I'll do an SD Speed test on my phone.
For the record I've never been able to get the Patriot 32GB card in my phone right now to write faster than 8MB/s (which I honestly believe is due to the phone's limitations, not the cards).
The only reason I'm changing cards at all is because the Patriot keeps corrupting. I've lost so much, thanks to the patriot SD. The one week I turned off Titanium Media Sync is the one week my SD card freaked out. LOL That'll teach me to turn off backup.
Anyway, I'll post up the results from both cards if I have time.

FYI, SanDisk's having a black Friday sale. the 32gb micro sdhc is $50 on their site. can't make out what class from the pic on my mobile.
I would have bought SanDisk if I could find a class 10 micro SD, but I couldn't find ANYONE who sold a SanDisk 32GB class 10.
I think that pretty much all 32GB Class 10 MicroSDs are garbage and SanDisk doesn't want to tarnish their name.
On the flip-side, I've found that the Samsung is just as fast on my Sensation as the Patriot, which is fine. I never had a problem with speed. Lets see how long this one lasts, though.

I don't need anything that big.. this PQI is perfect for what i need since you can swap out the SD card in it. I will be able to take the 32gb micro card in my Vivid and with the adapter throw it right in the PQI.

Pretty sure it supports 64gb, even if it doesn't say it. 64gb sd cards are usually sold as SDXC preformatted with ex-fat filesystem. While this drive may not be SDXC ex-fat compatible, you can reformat it as fat32 and still be able to use it. I did it in my galaxy s2. 64gb sdxc wouldn't read till i reformatted it as fat32, then it worked beautifully! Galaxy s2 said it would only support up to 32gb cards, but that wasn't completely true...

If thats true I may still order one.
Just got mine today and i can confirm that it DOES support my sandisk 64gb micro sdxc card. It will probably even support higher capacities, but 64 is the biggest i have. I dud have to reformat the sdxc's ex-fat partition though. In order for it to be seen, it needs to be formatted as a fat or fat32 file system.
I'm happy.
One suggestion though, don't use the app from the play store the manufacturer says to use - it sucks. Use any file manager that supports lan sharing. I tried both es explorer and total commander and both work by connecting anonymously to 192.168.2.1.
The air drive uses 2.4ghz WiFi and supports 8 channels.
Highly recommended as an external storage solution because its portable and extremely versatile.
Nuff said.

I would also like to see if the firmware can be hacked, i would like to be able to change the private ip it uses (according to their site its not changeable).

not similar as the kingston is a fixed 32gb where as the pqi house a 32gb sdcard included, but can be swapped out for a larger sd card, as long as the card is formatted fat32 a 64gb and possibly 128gb card can be used.
Whenever I check my tracking with DHL it doesn't show up as anything, and when I cross reference it with USPS it says it was transferred to another carrier.
Did anyone get tracking updates or know which carrier is handling it? Or did it just appear in your mailbox?

128GB Micro SD Memory Card real or fake.

I found out about two weeks ago there was a 128 gb micro sd out, and it was going for $200, but if you pre ordered it with Amazon you only paid $119.00, but you had to wait 4-6 weeks for it to be sent to you. I didn't have the extra funds in my account to get this.
So i said to myself i'll wait, and get it when i have to extra cash to spend. Now that i have it, Amazon is no longer selling it at that price.
here's why on the bottom of of the amazon page.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...d=&coliid=&condition=new&me=&qid=&seller=&sr=
But i found this on Newegg and i wonder if it's, because i can't find this product on the web.
But if it is, it's only $69.95 with extras....Please reply and help me make a choice.

Here are my rules with buying flash:
1) "never buy flash sd or micro sd from online retailer. Period!
2) only buy flash sd or micro sd from a store with an excellent return policy such as bestbuy or futureshop.
Yes you'll pay premium dollar but the reality is there are fake memory cards everywhere and the retalers don't even know they are selling it and if they don't even know they are selling it, good luck proving it!
Also 69 is way too good to be true! you need at least clash 10 on android and and heck Sandisk is the only memory card manufacturer that has proven their use on android, if it not Sandisk, forget about it!
I hate fake memory cards, worst thing about them is how much time you invest in trying to fix them! You spend the first week in denial that you could possibly been sold a fake memory card and spend all this time formatting and re-formatting them with different applications and operating systems, try different roms, different kernel combinations, posting help because your rom is acting buggy, lose data? and all the while reason for all your woes has been due to using a fake memory card.
Very probably fake, i was buying mine twp months ago and the one with the largest storage was 64 gb. More than enough for 99% of uses.
That wouldn't even work for our phone. You going to use it on the Find 7 or something?

Works just fine, as has been shown numerous times. At the moment the specsheet for the S4 was made there were no 128GB cards.
So I assume you just looked at the specs to get that (wrong) assumption?

128GB SD cards will work with our phones with a SD to MicroSD adapter. i use one now.
in fact it will go up to 256GB
NOTE must be formatted to Fat32 to best compatability, also depending on your kernel.
Sandisk are making some (soon) though?
The 128GB card works on the S4, even though I have mine in my Note 3.

I believe he was talking about the Samsung from Newegg. This is definitely fake. As said before, anything above 32GB is SDXC, not SDHC like in the picture. Also Samsung has not yet releases 128GB. Also, look at the picture. "12" is of a different font /size than "8". The reviews for the seller "Redtagonline" has 2 stars out of 5. Just preorder from Amazon. Make sure you format it as either Fat32, or eXFat if your Kernel supports exFat

Man, Amazon still advertising @ $119 but been out of stock forever.
I have the Sandisk 128gb from Amazon in my S4, it works great without problem.
The micro sd to SD card adapter that comes with the micro SD did not work with either PC or Mac, so I had to plug my card into my card reader instead, which worked fine.

I've had better luck with returns with Amazon than with Worst Buy which will never get my business again. To each his own.

Files won't save, is it the 128gb generic card or not-rooted?

I'm wondering what I should do with my 128gb card.
I got one off ebay that says it will work in phones (just MicroSD 128gb, no brand on anything, the package even just had a foldover piece of plastic on the front. I'm guessing, since the seller is in the US, he just bought a generic lot and gambled he could sell them fast. That makes me want to push it around the block as hard as I can, as rapidly as I can so I can return it if need be. I bet he won't be on ebay in a few weeks, but since he is now, ebay can wield a pretty fierce club on sellers who sell non-working junk. The seller says it is Fat32 formatted.
Anyway I put it in my wifi 12.2 and it shows up as 125gb free, but I can't put anything on it through the device (PC over USB 3.0 can see the card but won't transfer files or make a folder; I can't create a folder via Zarchiver or ES File Explorer), but some programs have written to it (firefox, google, flipboard... but can't save to it firefox and quickpic can't save there). I'm NOT rooted (so no fix).
I'm trying to figure out if it is the generic nature of the card, or if it is just that I don't have root yet and have not applied the fix. If it were a 64gb card I would not be too worried (I would think it is the kitkat issue), but it is the 128gb card so I don't know. An OP has said that they had problems with generic 64gb cards being fake (I admit I have not done the research on fake micro sd cards), so this makes me worry a bit.
I just want to make sure that the card works so I don't have to return it. I'll try out a new 32gb card I have tonight and I'll try it in the adapter just with my PC to see if I can read from it on the 12.2 tonight, then I guess I'll root (Yea LMT!!!).
I'm open to any suggestions you might have for me.
Sounds like a fake card to me.
Sent from my SM-P900 using Tapatalk
I'm running H2testw on the card right now and should know in about three hours if it is fake or not. Registering as 125gb free when the real deal registers 119gb free is not seeming like its going to work out as real, but you never know.
Fake card, the 32gb card I have works just fine. Looks like the real sandisk cards are all sold out on amazon.

Thanks!!! I checked April 1 and it was priced $239 or something, checked back and amazon now has it for $119 again (out of stock preorder).
I contacted the seller and said that it was tested defective and appeared to be counterfeit and I wanted a refund and not to pay shipping. He refunded my purchase within 24 hours and said I didn't need to ship it back. Said something about being new and had to check his stock, I have not posted anything yet as far as feedback. The package said "starage" instead of storage, big tipoff in retrospect.
AFIK sandisk is the only 128gb micro card maker right now so I don't think there are any knock offs yet.
I used the test program and it took like 8 hours to finish, but it was bad.
Hope that was helpful to others, just 128gb are not on ebay yet IMHO, happy to be wrong, but I don't think so at the time of posting.

Recommend microSD for new S5?

I got a Samsung Galaxy s5 gold. My old 32gb card is full. I purchased a Samsung evo 64g card off eBay but it turned out to be a Pos. Is there another brand out there that is trustworthy and works great that's fast etc...?
Can't go wrong with a sandisk ultra class 10 SD card.

Sandisk.
It's the market leader, and the company responsible for developing the larger sized cards.

You do realize that this is faker than Milli Vanilli, right? Apart from saying "Ultra" on the packaging but "Extreme" on the card, the cheap price is a dead give-away. A Sandisk 128gb microSD card will be $85-90 minimum, more for higher data transfer speeds.

Go with Amazon, unless Wal*Mart's prices are the same. Amazon usually has the best prices, and they can definitely be trusted as long as you're buying directly from them or the purchase is "fulfilled" by them.
Went to Best Buy and got a Samsung Evo 64 gigabyte $30 I'm still having problems... I took my old SD card copied it all to my desktop in a folder. Then plug in phone with new card format using phone and then drag and drop but the folder DCIM with all my pics and videos transfers half way and than an error pops up saying the phone disconnected or something. I have tried using the ten different card readers I have and many times Windows Vista or Xp says Windows cannot read card w/o formatting which does NOT work.
Got it working. Using the adapter that came with the microSD card
I'm of the opinion that eBay is not a good place to go for SD cards. I'm using a Samsung Evo 32 GB card (purchased in-person from MicroCenter) in my Avant and it's been trouble-free.
One thing to watch out for if you're using a card reader on a PC: make sure it can handle MicroSDXC cards.
