Micro SD for Nook Tablet? - General Questions and Answers

I need to buy some microSD cards for my Nook Tablets. I want to put CM10.1 on them. I have been told that Class 4 are okay, then someone else said 6 and another says class 10. What is the correct answer? Would getting a SanDisk Ultra 32 GB MicroSDHC Class 10 UHS-1 Memory Card from Amazon.com or Newegg be a good choice?

That is exactly what I did with my nook, and I bought the same sd card. It has worked out beatifully ever since. My class 10 sd cards are the only ones that have never died on me.

[Q] 32GB Micro SD Cards?

Does anyone use a 32GB micro SD in their device? I'm looking to get a class 10 32GB micro SD but I'm not sure what brand/manufacturer to go with or where I can get the best price. Basically, my main priority is to get a safe, reliable, and fast (class 10 preferably) 32GB micro SD. I've never been too educated in the SD memory market, so I was wondering if anyone could help me out. Thanks in advance!
Sandisk is always a good choice. As for class 10, I'm not sure why you need one that speedy. I have 32GB class 2 card and it is plenty fast enough for my g2x.

Oh really? Well that's good to know. (Like I said I'm not too knowledgeable about SD cards.) I'll look up SanDisk on Amazon, I figured they would be a good source. Thanks!
I also found this: http://www.amazon.com/Lexar-MicroSD...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1306885736&sr=1-1 (as far as class 10 ones go) and the reviews seem to be pretty good. Does anyone know if that manufacturer (Lexar) is reliable?
Here's a few good options. I personally have a 32gb wintec class 10, and that cards been a champ since day one. Class 4 cards are good enough especially since i believe android is limited to class 4 speeds

Thanks a lot! I think I'll go for the wintec class 10 based on your recommendation. That's an interesting observation about Android, but since I'm going to be using the SD card with different devices in the future, I figured I might as well go for the best.
I have a 32gb kingston class 4 and its been running pretty good.
i have two. A class 4 Sandisk and a class 10 Adata. The sandisk seems to work the best. I lost my data on the Adata 3 times and had to return one DOA. While the Adata did have really good speeds it just didnt seem reliable.
Iv never used a 32 but iv had an 8 and a 16 made by A~Data, and have no complaints
dont trust any brands u dont know meng.. there are tonnes of fake cards out there so the best thing to do is to buy from the stores the guys have listed up top.. but if u happen to buy from eBay: here are a list of things to look out for
1) the brand name is Kingston, Sandisk, AData or Lexar - those are known and trusted brands to work with.
2) the class of the disk is displayed on the microSD Card and the class relates to a price - if its a class 10 and its cheap - beware.. safest bet is to go with either a class 4 or a class 6
3) Insure that the Serial number is displayed on the microSD Card.. if you dont see a serial number then ask for one and check via google to insure that it is legit
that is how i got this wicked awesome 32GB Kingston card from eBay for 20 bucks.. i had a 32GB class 10 card from memorex but couldnt make a ext partition with it and thats how i discovered that it was fake
Dane-Elec and Transcend are fine and I am using them in GTab and X10.
I also have Sandisk and using it in G2x.
I have a 32g class 10 from Kingston. It works flawlessly, and you can see the speed improvement. Pick one up here.
Just picked up a ADATA 32gb fron newegg on sale for 49$ + free shipping (Class 4).

[Q] Stock micro sd card class?

Does anyone happen to know the class of the stock sd card that came with the sensation? I have a 8gb class 4 spare i may use instead.
I really dont want to have to pull it to find out since id have to remove the body glove case which is pretty much a pain in the ass.
Mine was a Class 4 8GB card.
As far as I know they come with a SanDisk 8gig class 4.

mine was kingston 8gb class 4
32GB Sandisk Class 4 works fine
The 32GB Sandisk Class 4 that I picked up a few months back migrated from my HD2 into my Sensation without a hitch.
It's 8 GB Class 4
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
With Class 6 have best performance?
I want to upgrade to a larger card.
Can I just copy everything over and insert the new card? Or do I need to wipe and start from scratch?
Thanks,
Fred

Have a look at this thread:32GB MicroSD - working in Desire
You might not need a class 6 card, mot of the time a class 4 card is OK as well. They are cheaper and easier to obtain as well
Why class 6? I would try Samsung's class 10 or Sandisk class 4, depending on the use you are going to give it (Media vs Apps)

Thanks

I bought it, the phone said damaged card, I let the phone format it, it now says 59gb available.
Works perfect!!!
Happy:laugh::laugh:
hi... so sandisk 64gb UHS-I microsd card works with fascinate on a custom rom... will be any speed difference with the original class 10 microsd cards (non UHS-I) or what do you think about SanDisk Extreme Pro microSD UHS-I 16gb? it's say that it can read up to 95 mbps... will our fascinate be able to use that speed? or it's just some marketing strategy because I read somewhere the sandisk itself claiming that UHS-I are equivalent with class 10...
Im about to upgrade my 8gb class 10 microsd card.... any suggestions...?
tq...
sorry for bumping a semi-old thread, but i'm using the 16GB class 2 Samsung card that came with the phone. or maybe the one that the guy who gave me it put in idk but it works and it's the biggest card i have. i have 2 8GB cards and a 2GB card too.

class 2 do not work well if at all in most all ICS, Jellybean Roms... you need to have at least a class 6, and with pricing these days class 10 8GB or 16GB can be had for cheap
I know you have posted about laggyness on nearly all the roms you tried,,, this is probably a main upgrade you should plan on if you want to get off of stock EH03 verizon goodness

Only because there is no class 12 or 14 etc. UHS-1 cards are considerably faster than the first class10 cards (at least at synchronous read), but the class system considers anything faster to still be class 10, because there is no faster class. Some Sandisk cards return status7 errors when flashing roms to our phones, but it seems to be hit&miss from one card to another.

yep.. 100% agree... prior to my posting sometime ago, i decided to try 32 sandisk UHS-1 card... it's faster than my class 10 transcend but seems only a very little bit... wouldn't waste my money for the extreme pro UHS-1...
I just put my 64gig SanDisk Extreme Plus UHS-3 in it and it's reading it fine... On stock 2.3.5.

Man, thanks for this comment. I cant seem to get any rom to flash without error on a PNY class 10 64gig. In have a SanDisk class10 64 and that SanDisk UHS-3 64 I can try, but what if I were to format the card with my phone I wonder....would it work then? Guess I'll try it.
