I see here a lot questions about memory cards so:
Ace 2 internal memory have read up to 30MB/s so :
http://m.mymemory.co.uk/product?p=41391 that card is ok, have also up to 30MB/s and is cheap.
That card is the best and we dont need faster :
http://m.mymemory.co.uk/product?p=41591
She have up to 95MB/s read.
I have both and on first card I dont have lags in games but on that secund card loading times in games are impressive.
When you do a swap remember about minimum 30MB/s read in card which you want buy. Capacity of storage is your choice and it dont have meaning on speed of that card.
What card do you have guys?
(I sorry for mistakes in text but my english is weak)
But why do you need that strong cards, r/w speed is just when you are transfering some files (also speed can depend on usb port or card reader), i personally have class 4 card and dont need any better. I didn't experience lag in games or something like that.
Odp: Memory cards for Ace 2
On class 4 I cant play in vice city on full details ( on class 10 I can) A lot of games have lags on class 4. Games like : Amazing spiderman, gta vice city, gangstar 3, etc... and other wheare is a lot of data transfering and is open world.
Simply turn on vice city on FULL setings and you get a big lags ( freez on 2,3 secunds ) This is only on class 4, too much data dump because that card cant hendle it ( IF YOU HAVE SWAP )
Few days ago i downloaded gta vice city and on full details i have around 25fps (aprox.)

Me not. Only on 10 class. My system is sloooow on class 4 to slow writing in some pleace.
You can check it. Instal gta 3 on internal memory and turn it on on full details ( lights, better tekstures etc...) and you dont get lags but then do that same on class 4... (you get lags,litle but lags)
Amazing spiderman - is not playable on class 4 (JB/GB) but with good class 10 and JB you can play it on medium settings. Not allways people need that but I have from people ~10 questions about it on xda on each day so I write my opinion here.I write it from my experiance.

Its depands of card quality and what type and size of file use that aplication. I have tested my phone and cards on SD Tools.

Today I bought a FlashRaptor MemoryTools 32GB class 10 Microsd for 20$.
I found a test where:
Write=22MB/s

It can be. Ace 2 have 30MB/s ( SD Tools )
But it can by up to 30MB but on another files. Simply - on litle files like .pdf .jpg can be fast but slow on big files like movies. You can try that card on Windows in card reader with some tests programs

I think if you also have a original card, there is no difference between your both.
Question: Are the massively lags, while and after installing an app, also caused by my class 4 card and modified vold.fstab?
I dont think because i have class 4 and everything runs smooth.

I'm about to Root my phone and do the Apps2SD.
Will a Class 4 be fast enough?
The 16gb class 6 is about $50. That's just too much for me. that'll put the cost for this phone to be +$600 (529+20 for case + 50 for card).
There's a 16gb Kingston class 4 on amazon for $30.
Just wanna make sure I don't waste money on this and the apps all lag or something.
Thanks guys.
class 2 should be just fine. cards of different classes only differ in their write speed but not their read speed. AFAIK, there's no Android app that needs write speed faster than the one provided by class 2.
The only advantage of class 4/6: they might be faster when transferring files from your computer to your N1's SD card via USB.

Hi all,
This should be a quick answer...
How do I know what class my micro sd card is? Its a San Disk 8Gb. Can I assume the little 2 in a circle is the class? Would I be better getting a class 6 card?
Thanks.

corect the number in the circle is the class. I running a class 6 samsung and in all honesty no earth shattering diff in 99% of thing phone can do

However my Sandisk memory card doesn't have circle and number. Then how can l find out which class it is?

Hello terzer,
without number on the card only a transfer test can give you an answer.
When you have an adapter to use the card with your pc card reader, you
can stop the time to transfer e.g. 100 MB to the card. Devide the 100 MB
by the time and you have the writing transfer rate (e.g. for 10 s:
100 MB / 10 s = 10 MByte / s ), repeate this with reading the 100 MB
back and you have the reading transfer rate.
Class 2 - 2 MB/s minimum writing
Class 4 - 4 MB/s minimum writing
Class 6 - 6 MB/s minimum writing
Class 10 - 10 MB/s minimum writing
Stop time after finished copy process - pc somtimes uses write cache
and displays multiple of real rate.

There's a sd card speed tester on the market. I forget the exact name. Try that to find your class.

I test transfer speeds with "J Disk Benchmark". No idea if it's the best or anything, but it gets the job done and it's free

this will be far more accurate than the class rating on the card and you can really compare cards decisively
Hmmm just used "J Disk Benchmark" to test my SD CARD it suposed to be a 16 GB class 4 . read speed 2,4 MB write speed 1,4 MB so its more a class 2 than a class 4 card !!

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?

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

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?

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

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!

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)

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.
