You beat me to it... I was gonna post a similar post... LOL
Actually if someone could point out the differences in the classes and which one is "recommended" on the DHD?? I would also like a 16Gig...
And how to check what class I have on the DHD now?
Cheers!

I can answer The class thing the higher the class the faster it reads and writes which it recommends nothing below a class 4 for hd video recording at present in got a 16gb class 6 works great just wanting more space
E=Mc2

And how do I know what class is my SD?

yeah true would make it harder to now if you getting real deal, probly only way to know your getting what you ask for is import from a decent website. but you can always test the class of sd card by it transfer speed on pc as a class 6 should be able to transfer at around 6mb/sec if im right. but can your pc read/write at 6mb/sec i know mine can't lol

I'm pretty sure mine does... an i7

I have a 32gb class 4 and its perfect for everything, not noticed any slow-downs and HD recording is fine. I couldn't find any class 6 when I was looking but no regrets getting a 4, will transfer a mp3 album in a few seconds (if that's any measure). Cost me £56. It's by integral

The class shows the minimum read/write speed of the card as shown below
Rating Read (Mb/s) Write (MB/s) Class
13× 16.0 2 2
26× 32.0 4 4
40× 48.0 6 6
66× 80.0 10 10
It is possible that a Name brand class 6 card, could out perfom a no name class 10 card as the speeds are minimum, I would tend to avoid anything slower than class 4 as it MAY introduce lag involving SD read/write operations​

To those who have 32gb cards, what brands are they?
Contemplating between transcend and sandisk. transcend is a bit cheaper though. I just dont know anyone who can vouch for transcend.

I bought one from MyMemory.co.uk, just their own branded ones was about £52 class 4 couldn't be happier with it

On looking up the official standards of MicroSD cards http://www.sdcard.org/developers/tech/sdhc/ it only talks about differences in speed ratings such as class 2, class 4 ect. So I assume that HTC are advertising the Desire HD as only supporting class 2 MicroSD cards. I would like to know if anyone can confirm if using the USB cable to transfer data to a PC is actually getting faster speeds using a higher class MicroSD card than class 2 standards?

HTC isn't saying that the DHD supports class 2 only it just doesn't specify. (the micro-sd 2.0 thing is completely different to what you're thinking about the 2.0 means it supports micro-SDHC not that it supports class 2 only. and about the speed difference, I have a class 2 8GB micro-SDHC and that writes at 2MB/s and reads at 4MB/s, a class 4 16GB that writes at 4MB/s and reads at 5MB/s, and finally a class 10 32GB that writes at 12MB/s and reads at 15MB/s. (All tested on my Desire HD) So there is a HUGE difference between classes 2 , 4 and 10 when copying through USB.

Hello,
what class 10 32GB do you have?
best regards huggy

It's a Kingston. I would tell you the model number but I chucked the rubbish away.

I bought a Toshiba 16gb class 4 and I am completely satisfacted in comparison with the stock (samsung) ! It's faster and more reliable !!!

Not at all: http://www.androidnz.net/2011/09/sandisk-64gb-micro-sdxc-cards-confirmed.html

This is actually a really good question
acording to this it should be able to use it up until 32 GB
and for bigger ones it need to use exFAT.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SDXC#SDXC
Linux systems that support SDHC cards also support SDXC cards, as long as the card contains a compatible file system. A proprietary driver is available for the exFAT file system.

Oh, I'm want 1 card. But, how much?

Any news on this? Anyone did a real test with a O3D and a 64GB card?

There shouldn't be any problem with 64gb if it works on other phones. I doubt that it's hardware related.
Almost all the phones have the same specification about maximum sd size, and it's 32gb. The 64gb is new and the specification on the phones was written when the 64gb wasn't available.

working very good

Does it support an exFAT filesystem with the O3D or have you got your 64gb card with a FAT32 format?
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA App

I had an 64GB card, but my P920 literally ignored it. So no 64GB for me.
So now I have my old 8GB back, and its working.
But why on earth would somebody need 64GB?
The sound quality is even worse than my 10 bucks mp3 player

Because 32GB is not enough.I have 46 games on mine sgs 2, only this games need over 30GB free. Were I could put rest stuff like movies, films,mp3, maps for navigation etc.? Some free space for my own video, taken pictures.now I have got 80GB and only 6GB free memory. That the reason that I change lg optimus 3d on sgs 2. 40 GB is not enought
Sent from Samsung Galaxy S 2 (80GB)

Then the boys 3d optimus quietly supports 64gb?

no no no!!
look here!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038039
And this guy "3waygeek" blogged this further:
Well, I just got the SanDisk 64GB microSDXC. As I predicted, the SGS2 couldn't read the exFAT filesystem the card is formatted with. However, the SGS2 did format it as FAT32, and seems to accept it as a valid device.
I'm now copying my old 32GB card to the new 64GB, using standard USB microSDHC card readers on a Windows box. But before I did that, I ran SDTools on the microSDXC. Read speed 18 MB/s, write speed 6.6 MB/s; see the attached snapshot. Those numbers suggest to me that the device is the bottleneck, not the card.
So, aside from the lack of exFAT support, it looks like microSDXC will work. it works! just let ur phone RE-Format it to fat-32

hmm
I saw a post saying that 64gb had worked properly on LG-SU760, but I don't have any idea what sdxc is actually working well on Op3d...
It might depend on sd company.

see here it is available for Rs. 3455/- only!!!

UHS Support
hi everyone,
Im new to the forum and my first post. And sorry to interupt on a another thread coz I thought ths wil be just a simple thing to know.
Im intend to buy couple of sandisk mobile ultra 16gb UHS-1,
I knw that uhs stand for ultra high speed, bt don't know weather these cards are technologically different than normal sd cards.
So I would like to know would these work on our O3D?? Thank you.

16GB or 32 GB

In two minds whether to buy the 16 or 32 GB version. I know I can add a big SD card to the 16GB but how much space does the stock rom take up?
And where in the UK can I get the 32 GB?
Thanks

Obviously you should get the largest capacity you can afford /find. I got mine From best buy 16 DB is all they had in stock
wish it were 64 DB.or had apps to SD will have to use directly bind im guessing. not understanding those scripts in dev area some things need to be on main storage.
Would like a method of being able to select what to move

Get the 32 GB if you can afford it. Otherwise, the 16GB is adequate with an external SD.
Of course this varies for user to user.

You can have upto 32 GB..
The more the class,the better the speed and performance.
Buy atleast nothing below class 4..
and costs from Rs.200 to 2000 or even more..

The largest class is the class 10. (Class: 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10).
You need to purchase Micro SD Card.
The rest is all up already answered.

Our fit supports SD cards up 2 32gb of capacity. but it will definitely decrease d speed.2 avoid this choose 16 GB SD card. Remember, 4 higher speed u need a class 10 SD card!

[Q)] About Swap on Class10 card

Hello my question is simple, everybody knows about fits low ram issue.
If i buy class 10 sd card (ex: 16gb), can i give 1 gb ram to phone with swap ?
Will it effect to performance ? System cpu speed enough but ram really low
Thx for answers...

You could use SD card with swap to extend the ram but it going to be dead within 2 weeks because of the exessive Reads/Writes
I did used for a couple of days a 10 class Sandisk of 8GB with swap enabled and did not impact so much on performance.

Today bought http://www.digitalversus.com/memory-card/lexar-micro-sdhc-32-gb-class-10-uhs-1-600x-p16172/test.html (not from amazon but same card), 512mb ext4 and 256mb for swap with CWM use... (I will use high values later )
Results are okay, everything faster than i imagine. A lot of cards have 2 year guarantee, like this one. If your card dead in 2 week like k3eNaNz said, you can change easily in my opinion ( so use local market). And developer said 7 years usage time...
However i'm so happy , i'll add more virtual ram to my fit without speed loss
1gb ram on galaxy fit not bad

Yes a lot of class10 - 8gb microsd card around. Search in xda " clockworkmode swap" you can find many topic about this.
But remember, you should need class 10 or above sd card, ext4 and swap supported kernel too. ( so a lot of kernel and rom support these functions)

Just checked my SD... It's class 6
Time for a new one...
Thanks!

I also use 32GB class 10 sdcard. But I'll never try swapping. Coz even if I do have backup on my laptop but windows 7 disonnects the sdcard during copy/paste via card reader. So in case my sdcard is dead by applying swap & I buy new one...windows wont allow me copy files back... & using FTP to transfer files is very tiring process with possibility of errors...But it's my opinion guys.

Swapping not like real ram, like i said virtual ram. But All of you be can sure, virtual ram really boost the (our) phones x10 times.
Example: closed ext swap last night (from clock work mode) and installed "ram manager pro." And added 1gb (1024mb) (also will add 2048mb) swap ram to my fit. I did because of clcokworkmode give only 256mb swap ram.
Result: All apk's first open really open like vanilla (default). But after second one, you can see improvement. Speed comes with smile. And best thing for you, ram optimitizion scripts and task killers not necessary. Because swap file directly answer your response with 30mb/ps(+) read rate.
Recommend: Try with 8gb class 10 sd cards, they're cheap nowadays, you won't regret
Tip: Galaxy fit support only (maximum) 32gb sd cards.
