Hi! Does anyone know if Magician supports a 4GB SD card ? (I've tried a 2GB one, works fine and I'd like to buy a 4GB now).
Also, what about the new high-capacity HCSD ones ? (there are already some 8GB cards available). Is Magician able to read/write on those too ?
Many thanks.
4 GB max

hmmm, do you know which "model" is it (ie the 40x one, the 120x, etc). Please take a look at the link below (from the official Transcend site) it gives up to 2GB compatible size ... (strange) ... (my unit is the Qtek S100)
http://www.transcend.com.tw/Support...D=Qtek&ModelID_F=&ModelID=S100+PocketPC+Phone
Anyone else had any compatibility problems with 4GB SD cards of other brands ? I tried one today from a friend which is a 4GB SD (brand "A-Data", standard SD, non a SDHC one) and the S100 can't read it.
Many thanks.

Good to know that !! This old horse can still do a lot !!
My Transcend card is NOT the high-speed one.
Frankly, I don't think the high speed makes any difference on the XDA II Mini at all.
I'm also using the 4gb transcend. It's the slower model and I can definitely noticed the difference when it's connected to my pc through a card reader, but it's not so noticeably on my magician.
Hmm. I've just ordered a 4GB Sandisk [FONT="]Ultra II card for my JAM. I hope I've not made a blunder!!
Will report back when it arrives.

I don't know if it's the best, but I'm sure it's very good
Transcend x80 2GB & 512MB work great out of the box.

I bought one of these from Newegg recently for $40 and it works fine.
I just got a 2GB SanDisk MiniSd for my Wizard but it is not bing detected in the device! It works perfectly on my PC's card reader and I'm not sure what to do
EDIT: Why is it as soon as I post it fixes itself? I put in a different MiniSD and then swapped back to my other one and it worked fine :S

To my knowledge 4GB miniSD cards aren't available yet, but if I am wrong I would love to know where to obtain one.

This forum even helps in mysterious ways .
Ah, hadn't seen this question come up yet this week, so I figured it was about time for some one to ask it with out searching again.
Of course 2gb work. Why wouldn't they?
There are no 4gb cards right now. Any for sale are fradulent cards using a trick formatting technique that makes them appears as though they have 4gb of space, when in actuality they don't. If you try and use them/format them, they will not work at all.
4GB cards are on their way but they are a new HCSD format which requires a firmware update to function correctly. The HCSD specification allows for up to 32GB of data space which is a hell of a lot. I just wonder if read write times will be hit with ruch high capacity single chip systems. Current 32GB notebook flash drives use eight chips to keep I/O performance up.
As far as I know the only difference between 'normal' and HCSD cards is the filesystem: FAT16 versus the newer FAT32. The Wizard can handle FAT32 so my guess is it will handle HCSD cards just as well.
my K-Jam works fine with my Kingston 2 gig miniSD. But my MPx220 doesn't read it properly and neither does my PC.

Hmmm... If you say so... I don't have much information about it. I know all 4GB+ cards use FAT32 and work fine in most PDAs. The main problem I have had is with digital cameras which are mostly FAT16.
Does smb testing it?
interesting question !
u can read thru the data sheet or white paper, i dun think it is supported in any current device... hope i m wrong
Actually i'm also thinking of buying a 4GB miniSD card, but it's using the new SD 2.0 standard. So i doubt our PDA supports it
It's not compatible.I've tested 4GB miniSD on my HP iPAQ rw6815 and there is no way.Can't detect!
what about a 2GB miniSD high-speed (80x), compatible or not?
thank you.

depends on the brand I guess. I have heard of few people using the newer high speed 2GB miniSD cards on Atom with no problems.

In other words: Do Athena support SDHC/Secure Digital 2.0?
Thanks!
Maximum size it supports is 4 GB mini-sd.
I haven't tried yet, as I got a free 2GB card with my purchase
in a famous german PPC forum it was stated that it actually DOES support 4gb sdhc. users have tried it there and 4gb sdhc (i think from transcend) definetely worked.
if it does support higher sdhc like 8gb? only time will tell.
and 4gb non-sdhc cards work too, i use one in my athena.
Excellent! Just ordered a 4 GB mini-SDHC card.

That is what I got with my Ameo purchase
The Athena is SDA 2.0 SDHC compliant, so MiniSDHC up to 32GB will be supported.
8GB MiniSDHC has already been spotted, 16 soon to follow...and so on.
For now 4GB is working fine!!
link?

I am having nothing but problems here. My 4gb will allow me to transfer and save files to it via activesync, but they all dissappear from it as soon as a/s is disconnected! I also tried saving them to the microdrive and then doing a cut-and-paste to the card, but they all dissappeared again!
Any info would be good......Later
UPDATE: I tried using my pc and d/l ing files to the card with it out of my X7500 and in the card reader, and they all save,open, and run fine once it is put back into the device! I tried both the 1 gb card I had and the 4gb card I purchased this way,and both worked! This must be a problem with the rom IMHO.Hmmm.......
Later
I've looked everywhere for info, can anyone tell me the max size the SD card can be or is it unlimited?
Many thanks,
Neil.
i believe that 4gb is the maximum, but only certain brands seem to work.
i have a 2gb one works like a charm
TOPRAM 4GB mini SD card
Ok guys... its true the max at this moment is 4GB but it needs to be TOPRAM mini SD card. SO Check at ebay and you can find some good one.

Hi,
Is SDHC or not?
Can you tell me your serial number, because some serial numbers (old models)don't work with 4GB cards.
I wish to try...
Thanks
I always use the MobyMemory versions have a 2gb and 4gb, fast and reliable.
