It is normal. See my related article at http://pocketpcmag.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=17921

so to finalise for the universal there is no point in getting any high speed card if its only to be used in the universal for whatever use?
ie no difference in tomtom gps, video's etc etc.
just be nice to get a defo answer on this forum for whe people search.
so yes or no? any diference beween lets say standard un tweaked/formated 150x 4gb card and 20x card?

Not so big a difference as in a card reader / better digicam. However, there MAY be differences in file creation speed.

I wanted to play with fpsece, emulator playstation, but with the speed of reading of the qtek9000 the games go jerky

1 Gig SD...does XDA support it??

Has anyone used a 1 Gig SD with XDA II. I want to get one but dun want to waste money
if its sandisk yeah itll work in anything mate as thats why they make them lol they work in everything avalibale but they are like the slowest things on earth
Let it be known that I have a 256mb Sandisk card in my XDA I and it works great. It's not slow. I mainly use it for music.
its not slow for music like but when your in tomtom youll find its slow when typing in names for towns ect... as it takes about 30secs for it to show my town then after streen names and all are fast
panasonic, simpletech and lexar are the fastest cards out
with the program pocket mechanics you can benchmark your card and compare it with other brand cards in different pda's
and yes sandisk is allways the slowest
but it's fast enough for playing music and maybe even movies not sure about the later
Don't get a 1 GB sandisk card. That's a real risky investment. Get 2 512 Panasonic SD cards. That way you have the speed, and the space.
yeah than you got one card for
sheep p0rn pictures and movies
and 1 card for born again christian rock
it's poor taste to mix those on one big flash card
To gchun 1Gb
I am using 1GB from SunDisk, work 100%
shock horror :shock:
hey Rudegar u say christian rock & sheep p0rn like they are bad things!! :wink: well sheep p0rn mayB!! :!:
Smiley
ps ne1 know how to sync XDA2 via bluetooth? :?:
Great Thanks So much
Thx so much

never said that they were a bad thing just not a good combo

Memory card speed X33 X80 X360 does it matter?

It might be a stupid question and might not be...
The X-speed... how much does it affect the speed of the universal?
say - 1G SD X80 / 1G SD (doesnt say speed).
if there is a big difference - what speed is in ur opinion minimum?
10x !
I had a 45x, 60x 1G SD and 155x 4G SD, they are just the same for my Universal , but for my Canon 350d, the 155x can take up to 17 photos at once and the 60x can only take 5 photos at once. I guess the bottleneck is the IO on pocketpc so the speed of SD does not make any difference.
Tommy
10x
thanks a lot !
now i can relax

miniSD speed

Hi,
does the Wizard have a maximum transfer speed for access to the miniSD card slot?
I'm looking for a miniSD card, and thinking of whether the Wizard can take advantage of the very high speeds of the latest cards. Is it worth giving the extra money to get a very fast card or not?
Is 150x about the fastest available?
AFAIK 80x is the fastest available miniSD
Im using it (1GB 80x)
Maybe we can do some benchmarks? any good software to test memory?
ATP claims 150x speed

Don't bother spending extra money for a high speed card. Even going back to the earliest days of PPC's, it's all about the PPC's I/O to the media card. The only real advantages of a high speed card is when using with a digital camera or when using the card in a card reader.
I have a Sandisk 1gb card that runs just fine in my K-JAM. On my 2750, I have a 1GB Lexar sd and 1gb Lexar CF.

You won't be able to use the full potential of fast cards. Please read http://pocketpcmag.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=17921 for my article on all this stuff.
I'm glad I found this thread. I've installed some software onto the miniSD card and I noticed they load slower. The worsest problem is now the soft keyboard selection menu takes a full 7 seconds to pull up. I was thinking about buying a faster miniSD to solve this problem, looks like I'll just have to live with it.

Micros Sd cards - looking to measure speed

Hi All,
I have the TyTn and want to buy a new 2 Gb card but I was wondering if anyone has a utility to measure the read and write speed of the card. I used to have an IQUE 3600 PDA and one developer had a speed measurement software he developed for SD cards which was very useful. I'd like to find out how fast my current card (Tosh) is before buying another. I want a fast card to run Tom Tom.

just use pocket mechanic it will tell you everything even the shoe size of the guy that put the micro sd into its box.

4GB microSDhc or 8GB microSDhc

I'm planning to get a microSDhc card for my Jade (HTC Touch 3g).
Can you guys please advice will there is any difference in performance, response time and speed between 4GB microSDhc and 8GB microSDhc.
For the timebeing, I'm using mere 1GB micro SD card and its works great.
I know that both works with Jade, but how about the response time? I'm surely looking for bigger space, but not at the cost of speed and response time.
Thanks!!
HTC (officially) supports only 4Gb SD. Many I know have used 8Gb without problem. Personally I'm using just 4Gb without problem. Response time - blink of an eye, I do not have an empirical engineering measure though. Most of my programs / applications are on SD and the response time are OK.. so far, over a year now, never fail.
I use this one without any problems:
http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B001D0ROGO/ref=ox_ya_oh_product
I have no exact data for response etc. but it is very fast.
I am using an 8gb, I can't compare it to a 4gb since I don't have one.

Thanks Azahidi for the info!!
Even i'm planning to have my most of the programs/appilcations on the storage card, so was wondering about the response time.
On HTC site, they said they have tested 8GB, but didn't mention about the performance.
http://www.htc.com/in/faqs.aspx?p_id=174&cat=270&id=85794&f=t
But, the salesman at the store said 8GB will make ur device slow, which I didn't want for more space.
So, was looking for the expert opinions on this.

Have you guys installed programs/applications on the Storage card?
And is the reponse of those program on SD are marginally slower as compare to similiar application on device memory?
Even I'm looking to bigger space, it helps a lazy person like me to clean the storage after long long time.
How is the access time for data like music/video/documents from SD and how about the stability?
Thanks in advance!!

I installed nearly all programs on my card (see above) and I have no delay or other problems with it. Of course I do never remove it.
Speed for Cards...
most of the new Cards u can use have different "class" of speed, it give class
Class 2: 2 MByte/s - 13x
Class 4: 4 MByte/s - 26x
Class 6: 6 MByte/s - 40x
i use a Toshiba 8GB with Class4 (i pay 8,-EUR at eBay) and this works fine.
The most of the Programms I use, I installed on the Card except Phoneweaver or eqal Software that use direct access to the Sim.
I use for Videos (MusicClips, TV-Series with Subtitle in srt-format and Documentations) the CoreMobileVideoPlayer and the Videos works fluently perfect.
I have a second Device, a HTC Diamond with internal 4GB and to this it is no different with the speed (memory access).
I hope, this helps a little bit

Thank you so much!!
It is a great information you shared and really helpfull for selecting my Storage card.
well i use an 8GB micro sd card and it works like a charm
besides i heard that our jade can hold up to 16 GB's (thats what the folks at htc store told me) not quite sure about it but i guess the more storage u ride the more battery consumption u get
so i guess its fairly enough to stick with 8Gigs.
HTC touch 3G ( jade 110)
Hi guys. (I own htc touch 3g- jada 110) I am using also 8gb SDHC (kingston) class 4 and I recomend this one. Its fast, cheap (ebay- just be aware of some cheap replicas). I have also tried this card on my girlfriend`s htc tytn 2 (kaiser) and worked as well. So highly recomend KINGSTON cards.
I have both the 4gb and 8 gb Sandisk micro sd card. I can't tell the difference in speed and am very happy with the 8 gb card! Am thinking of upgrading to the 16 gb for my movies though!

Thanks for the information!!
Let us know your feedback after using 16GB, if things are stable there..... then we might think of switching to 16GB for the obvious reasons...
