i just got my note 10 today.. and plan to get a sd card for it.. im kinda blur on 1 question.. is there any diff between class 4 and class 10.. in term of running heavy game data (gamesoft) straight on the sd card.. will the diff be huge ?? thanks
I went with the class 10. It can write information faster. Should work better for everything in theory

Can I setup Apps2SD on my stock 1gb or will the card be too slow?
Well i dont know but i dont think so. Alot of people in these forums told me and other people that a class 2 8gb would cause problems and would slow down my device, but i guess there wrong because im pushing this card to its limit with no lags and no probs. So i will tell you, go ahead and use what you got.
I wouldn't I would go with a class 6 card at least if you want to put apps on a SDcard.
as long as it has a write/read speed of over 6mbs your fine to use that. so just bench it and find out for yourself. you dont want anything slower than 4mb.
read this thread, tons of info on write speeds and benching.

I did it for the past 4 months and haven't had any problems whatsoever. I was also running cache to sd as well. You won't notice as much of a performance boost, but you will notice a boost, since you have alot more memory available on the phone.
I actually did it this morning with my stock 1GB sd card. Everything is peachy

I got apps2sd on my 8gb. I see what you saying, but budget wise hes probably just trying to use what he has. I have a class 2 8gb and i habe no probs when i sent my apps and cache to my sd. But if he has the money i would recommend the 6 class 8gb also.

Exactly just trying to save a buck or two while I test it before going for a class 6. Thanks everyone for your comments.
I Also have a 4g class 2 SD card with well over 60 apps installed, along with my dalvik-cache. I have 65mb free on my phone and My phone runs amazing. I'm sure that the Class six would load apps faster due to the higher flash memory. But I have no experienced a single problem with my 4g class 2 card.
Neither have I.
If you guys do a test on the mSD you would find out that the stock card is actually a Class 6. Enjoy
update
Just thought I'd post back here to let you know that I got my Apps moved over pefectly to my stock card with no problems. Thanks again for all your help. I hope to pick up a class 6 8gb card soon! .

Thats good to hear but i thought classes were specs for sdhc cards only?
Buy a good SD Card
I bought a 4gb class 6 card, and when i partition it to do apps to sd it doesnt work and corrupts the disk. so make sure you buy a quality card, as I am now going to buy a better card so I can do apps to sd.
go to newegg.com that is where i am going to get mine, and choose sandisk, A-data or kingston or another quality sd card. 4gb or more is what i've seen suggested, i am going to get the 8gb, there's one i found for 20.00 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211341
good luck!

MicroCenter has 8gb class 6 cards for $15 if you have one in the area. I bought mine back in october...no problems at all.
Hello to all.
I want buy a new SD card 32gb class 10.
Is fully supported by my desire?if yes,which type is suggested?
Thanks
sent from the future
It's ok about 32gb and class 10 but I dont know if it will work really class 10
I'm fairly sure you can't get any higher than a class 4 32gb card.
Stay away from that class 10 32 gb card, i presume its fake offer. Must addmit that also i newer heard for class 10 32 gb

the best purchase atm is: Samsung micro SDcard class 10 - good price, good quality, very fast
Go for a class 10. I really notice a difference using my SLR camera when I swap between a Class 6 and the 10 - the 10 being way faster.

Class 10 all the way. I have a class 10 and it's slow, I wonder how slow will a lower class be.
I use class 10 cards in my DSLR, and would normally recommend them, however after installing CM7 on a microSD for my mother's nook color everything I read said your better getting a SanDisk class 2 than anything else, even in class 10. Apparently there is not a good standard for rating cards. I would recommend looking up specific benchmarks and choose from them.

I would not suggest a class 2 card as Android has issues reading it due to it being too slow. I have used class 4 and class 10 and I can feel a huge difference in the read and write speed.
Hi. I found this thread be very informative in my seach for a new sd card.... I'm searching the net for a good deal 32g micro sdcard @ 4 class.

Careful when buying sandisk especially online. There are some bad apolss out there selling improperly marked sd cards which say class 10 but really are just class 2.
Well Class 2 guarantess you 2MB/s, Class 6 6MB/s and Class 10 10MB/s.
6 is enough, 10 is better, see what you can afford.
Probably a tradeoff between speed and space.
Check how much space you really need.
Is it class so important?
I mean..when you have a class 4 isn't just enough for a smartphone?
Same thought. I have an 8GB class 4 SD card and i feel fine with it.

For just having media files on there, probably.
If you start putting apps to be run from there, you wan't as much speed as possible.
I think it much more depends on your ROM, not your external card. I have installed my apps on the ext2 partition and it does not appear to have any differences.

I havent noticed any differences between class 6 and class 10.
From personal experience, the speed of the card makes a big difference for the Desire because of all the app2sd games.
As someone mentioned before, brand and the store are also very important.
I bought a Lexar class 6 16GB and quite happy with it.
Make sure to do proper alignment on it.

I was thinking of this link coming into this thread, it needs to be a forum-wide sticky. For a camera, a class 10 would most definitely be required. But for Android, there does not seem to be a consensus.
Good luck
you should buy a class 10 dude samsung or another
Go for a class 10. If you aim for sales and such, you can get one for the normal price of class 6 cards.
I need to purchase a 32GB memory card. I run FRX07. Will a class 10 run? Or is Class 6 or another class better? I just want a 32 GB memory card that will run the best on the TP2. :fingers-crossed:
Read this thread (and then read it again) for all the info you need regarding picking out SD cards for running an os from.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1005633
Most class 10 will not get the job done. Class 2 and 4 sandisks tend to have good luck.
Also I sugest that you run GBX0C 2.3.7 rather than FRX07.
Sorry for spam. I know there is many thread for same question i want to hear something from pico users :silly:
i hope i ll buy a new sd soon... and its maybe sandisk ult microsd class 10. 16gig
But i don t know is class 10 can slighly improve performance ? (making 3 partitions for roms or OCing)
now i have 8 gig class 4... 3 partition requed roms and int2ext ..etc works slowly... what is the reason for the slow? is it sd card problem?
thanks for your effort... and some google translate....:angel:
