[Q] upgrade sdcard MT4G

I want to upgrade my stock 8gig sdcard to 16 or 32 gig. My question is that what do i do with all the files and folders in the old one. I am sure i would have to transfer them to the new sdcard.

just transfer over, I upgraded to a wintec 16gb class 10

I'm waiting for Black Friday. I saw an ad for Class 10 32GB MicroSDs for $29.99, but I can't remember where I saw it! Grr...

Either it was an SD card (not micro) or the class is wrong. I don't think anyone has Class 10 32GB MicroSD cards yet. Fastest I've seen is Class 4.

Woops, I had the capacity wrong. It's 16GB, not 32. And the sale is over at NewEgg and is going on right now (don't have to wait til BF!)

Oh yeah, the wintec. It's OOS unfortunately. I'm gonna hold out for a deal on a class 4 32GB, personally!

Thanks for the reply guys. I am pobally going to look on newegg. What are some good brands for sdcards. I guess u call it micro-sdcard for this phone.

I actually got the Wintec at FRY's for the same price as newegg

looking to buy 16GB/32GB micro sd card. Suggestions?

Hello. So I'm looking to bump up my 8GB card in my Evo to a 16/32 GB micro sd card. I looked around on the forums and the threads I found were dated. Any suggestions as to where and at a good price? Also I live in the US. The 8GB just isn't cutting it anymore for my rooting needs.
Thanks.

I can tell you which one not to buy:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211378
lasted all of like 7 months before it took a shat
lol

Thanks. Did you buy one from someone else? I don't gave any experience dealing with memory cards.

I found a 16 on sale at Radio Shack for 34.99. Yes you can find one cheaper online but RS is safe and I saw what I was buying before I paid for it.
You have been EVOfied.

Newegg.com and search for patriot class 10 and pick the 16 or 32

I bought a san disk 16g class 4 for $25 shipped thru amazon.com. very happy as my stock card was an 8g cls 4 san disk.

How'd you get a class 4 as stock? Mine wasn't as polite, was a class 2... (definitely need to upgrade that eventually, nandroids are wiping out what little space I have)

This was $35 a week or two ago. I think it's still $35 at amazon.

Great value compared to the 32gb.

I searched google and got the Lexar 32Gig class 10 for $88,
Works great!!!

That's a good price, who from?

If you have a micro center near you then you can pick up their store brand that 16gb for 25. It's labeled class 2 but all 4 of the cards I bought do 6 write and 13 read.

I made a thread recently for this in the ACCESSORIES section - take a look - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943469

I got those too, but I only get 4 write and 11 read. Still great store branded cards.

whats up everyone. I just updated my card to a patriot 32g class 10 ($90) and these are the results i got read-18mb/write-11mb

I just purchased a Kingmax 16gb class 10 from Amazon for $35 and it seems to work well with 18mb read and 11mb writes.

I got the same card also, but I questioned the performance of mine. Its testing the same as my 16gb class2 no matter which read-ahead value I set.
What kind of speeds are you seeing with yours? I wonder if I should RMA mine.

Linky for the Kingmax 16gb class 10 card I have, but the price is now $49. Either it changed or I remembered it wrong.

Please post which you end up going with and how you like it. I am also going to be looking for a new card for my phone in the next month or so and am interested in which you choose.

Best SD Card for Xoom?

I read everywhere to get Class 6+, but I can't find any on Newegg that have decent reviews.
I want 32 gig but if I have to get 16gig to get class 6+ I will.
What does everyone else use or reccomend?

Sandisk cards always seem to be the best for me.

I have had class 2 sandisk cards benchmark at 6 and above.

Class 10 32 Gig Lexar

Id recommend any class 10 over specific brands, newegg had em cheaper than $90 iirc.

I got a Patriot class 10 32 GB card in the Xoom now - I have the one pgwipeout linked to in his post in my Droid X. Both are good. Only changed up because it was out of stock when i went to order another.
Here's the link to the Patriot:

the patriot class 10 has horrid reviews on newegg. I want the Lexas 32gb class 10 but cant find it anywhere that takes paypal except ebay and they are all in honk kong

I've not had any trouble with mine - yet.

Exactly. and if "speed" is a problem buy (2) 16 GB ones and walk away when the other one is loading.

Lexar class 10 32 GB works great.

(edit: nevermind, found answer)

But it`s possible to use this card in the xoom?

I'm using a A-Data 16gb Class6 card and it works great.

I've got a Wintec Class 10 - 32Gb... I bought it from newegg about a month ago... About $82 + shipping... It's been running great...

32GB MicroSD Class 4 Card

I was going to buy the 32GB Samsung class 10 card, but after reading up, I found that the class 4 and 6 cards are actually better for Android devices because they have better random read/write speeds. I ordered from Amazon and I'm expecting it on Wednesday... I hope it was worth the $40...

I don't think we will see such good deal for a while until 128gb cards go down in price.

is the EVO comparable to the Ultra Sandisk edition?
and is the pro comparable to the Extreme Sandisk ?

For those interested Amazon has the Samsung 64GB PRO Class 10 Micro SDXC up to 90MB/s with Adapter (MB-MG64DA/AM) for $34.99 for the next 23 hours.
It's the pro version but it's only $10 more than the EVO right now.
Sorry my original link went to a regular SD card.

For $5 more you can get the U3 version

i'm gonna go for the samsung pro for the same price 29.99 today

Just as a slight update. On my normal Note 4, my 64 GB Sandisk wouldn't work. My 32 GB sandisk would. I ordered the Samsung 64 GB card and it does work in my N4DE.

? They've gone on sale plenty of times for 70-80. Which off the suggested retail is about the same as the 64gb cards in terms of %. Will be a lot easier after best buy stocks these in brick and mortar stores to get one super cheap.
Edit: meaning even cheaper in terms of rewards and whatnot

Is there a good App which can tell you what Class of SD Card you have installed? And, compare it to benchmarks of others? I'm curious how mine stacks up. I've been running a 64gb SanDisk for almost two years. It's really stable. Wondering how it stacks up to others though. I'm not sure of the Class.
