I am thinking about exchanging my SanDisk miniSD for a miniSD Ultra II which is ( at least in digitalcameras ) faster than a normal miniSD.
The Ultra II can read/write @ ~ 10 Mb/s - what can the HTC Wizard do with its miniSD Slot?
Is it able to even use this kind of speed? Or will the upgrade to a faster miniSD give me at least more speed than now?
Best regards!
I haven't tried it myself, but read this:

Hi, does anyone know what the max supported speed is? I can buy a 2 mb/s write and 3 mb/s read 1 GB SD card or a 5mb/s write and 6 mb/s read for just 10€ more.
So my question is, should I pay 10€ more?
Buy the fastest
Because ifyou by a usb card reader you will be able to copy data faster.
So it only matters if I also buy a cardreader?
Hmm i wondering about this myself even, whats the different . Can anyone answer exact how fast the qtek s100 writes and read. It must be some meaning of faster memeory card. Example Simpletech has 10/10mb fast and writing speed . And Sandisk 1.5/5mb i think. Dont the phone be faster with faster memory card???? please someone?
the card reader is really slow
i've bought a Sandisk 1GB Extreme III SD card, but in fact it is slower that a normal 512MB Kingston SD card, to bad... (both around the 1MB/s with PocketMechanic SD benchmarking).
I have a Sandisk Wifi + 256 mb card in my MDA Compact and eventhough the driver and such work flawlessly, the wifi performance is very disappointing. With an internet download benchmark I got about 26KB/s througput. I knew the card wasn't going to be fast before I bought it, but I was expecting to get at least something like 100KB/s.
At first I thought the problem was with the card itself, but when I tested an Sandisk Ultra II 256MB SD Memory card with pocket mechanic I noticed that the throughput to the memory card was also very low (0.26MB/s).
The throughput to the supplied mini SD was even worse (0.10MB/s).
Now I am wondering, is there a general problem with the SD bus interface? Can someone verify these results for me?
Or am I mistaken and should I not expect anything more? I did a full SPB benchmark on the device itself and the numbers were even a little better than to some posted in a review.
TIA!
yeah the jam seems to be slow with cards for some reason?!?!
i got a simpletech 10mb read/write one of the fastest and best cards out and i used to get over 1mb read/write on the xda2 with it but on the jam it gets 0.26mb write and 0.78mb read
with my ultra 60x 1gb it only gets 0.23 read and 0.63 write :\
seems so slow
I get similar speeds to this on my XDA II but the SD Card is much faster in an external USB 2.0 reader/writer.
Even worse, I bought a standard speed SanDisk 512k SD card that is so slow, the XDA II can not write to it at all!
I now only buy Ultra 60x or faster SD cards even though you don't get anything like that in performance in the O2 device itself - just reliablilty.
I use an external SD card reader/writer to load it with MP3s etc. I suffer 20 minute backups with Sprite Backup to SD card daily as I have no choice. (I also back up to 2 PCs as well daily - not much faster).

Hi guys!
I've got 2 512M SD memory card:
- Sandisk UltraII 512MB
- Panasonic High speed 512MB
...and I've got 2 device:
- i-mate Jam (QTEK S100)
- Canon PowerShot SD300 camera
Waht's the difference between the 2 SD?
In your opinion the speed are identical?
Is it better to put the Sandisk into Jam or into the camera?
Hi
I read a long discussion about SD card speeds on this site ages ago.. as i understand it, PPC can only read and write at a FRACTION of a slow/normal SD cards read/write speed, so it really makes no difference.. might as well put the biggest, cheapest card you can in it as anything alse is a waste of a memory card...
My own limited experince with a few sd cards i have (bog standard up to sandisk xtreeme III) shows no difference in speed across the cards.
Lovely caemra you have by the way

Thanks!!
Well... I understand that in ppc I can put the slower one but...
Sandisk Ultra II vs Pnasonic highspeed?
What is the faster? (I'll put the faster in my camera!)
if XDA II can use the SDHC high speed sd card?
thanks alot
There is a chance it might be able to use 4GB cards which are not SDHC ( Speed I think is irelevant ).
What speed is the 2GB stock MicroSD card the HD2 ships with? (Just to know)
IS Class 2 fast enough? I have a 16GB class two that I'd like to use, but not at the expense of performance on the phone, or problems, etc.
Anyone?
Class II is enough for a phone. Dunno the speed of the inserted one - guess it is class II. I'm using a class II 16GB mSDHC from Toshiba since more than a year and I never faced any problems.
Here I have done two micro SD benchmark using sandisk microSD reader:
SanDisk microSDHC 2GB Classe 2
SanDisk Mobile Ultra microSDHC 8GB Classe 4
The Ultra version has twice the speed of the stock one.
Yeah, that may be right and it could be faster when you copy some files to your phone or pull it down of it. But nevertheless the phone does not need more then class II, because it won't be able to exhaust it.
Even when recording video?
