(Part 2) Best micro sd memory cards according to redditors

I can do you one better. BEHOLD!

The serial numbers would be the same. Instead of running the risk of being tracked back through your purchases and imprisoned for using counterfeit money, which would quickly result in your cloning ability coming to light, buy some rare metals or gemstones to duplicate. You could also buy about 100 of these 128GB MicroSD cards and fit them in the other pocket. Resell them for $70 on Ebay, and you could make a huge bundle. It would also help me by driving down the price of MicroSD cards.

And another thing, OP. If you are going to sell your clone's meat, for goodness sake sell the organs you prick. People are dying and desperate, and you have an daily supply of fresh organs you could flood the black market with at low prices. Not that it would be easy at first, but once you find a regular buyer you might even discover a way to get them into legitimate supply chains. If each clone saves 5 people, wouldn't that make you feel better than selling them as deli meat? Don't be such a jerk OP. If you're taking the risk by selling their meat anyway, at least save some lives with it.

Sandisk and Samsung already make real 256GB cards. Samsung gave them away with Galaxy Note 7 (and also S7 I think) preorders. Sandisk lists a 256GB one on their website and you can buy it sold by Amazon.

Playing on a huge map with max city-states, performance notably degrades late game, but I wouldn't say it's anything particularly major and the biggest issues (menu delay, sound cutting off, etc) go away if you close and re-load the game.

For u/Crooks-1 I'm playing digitally with the game loaded on this card.

Actually, what OP wants is a "high endurance" card. They are made specifically to take the constant temperature changes and overwriting of recordings. Regular cards don't hold up in dash cams at all, and it makes people think the cams are shit. You just need to use the proper card.

I use this one and it's good: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B9KTLJZ/

Additionally, I use a set with dual cameras, and it works great: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B075S7W6FR/

You can already buy them stupid cheap. I have two SanDisk 256GB cards I got for $33 each. One is in my Switch. The other is in a drawer until I figure out what to use it for. Maybe my PSP.

Amazon had the 400GB card on sale the other day for $46

The 512GB card was on sale yesterday for $57.

Anything small, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB can be had for like $16 or less.

128GB for like $25

Not sure how much cheaper you expect them to get.

No shit! Evasive maneuver +100!

Is that Yi Dashcam still like $50? That thing is really good for its' price.

EDIT: Yup still $50. If you don't have a dashcam, get this one as a starter if you're tight on money. Just make sure you get a high endurance SD card (I like Transcend, but others make them also, these have just been bulletproof for me).

You asked:

1. "Pi-Hole puts itself between your device and the DNS Server and blocks out any requests to known ad and tracking servers." - technically Pi-Hole is a DNS server, but not a resolving server. So, it can accept DNS requests, but cannot resolve them. For this it needs an upstream server that can resolve DNS queries.
   
2. "Over 100,000 ad-serving domains blocked. You can expand this using server freely available user-created lists. " - this is dependent on which block lists you install with Pi-Hole. If you don't choose them all, you have fewer domains on blocklist. I would change this to "there are a number of publicly accessible blocklists that can be added to tailor your blocking...
   
3. "Blocks ads on any device, including those Smart TVs and other devices that do not allow you to make any modifications." This is not the case with devices that have hard-coded DNS in them. Unless you trap and redirect port 53 traffic from these devices, they won't use Pi=Hole.
   
4. "SD Card – I use Sandisk Ultra 16GB Micro SDHC UHS-I Card 98 MB/s." For $2 US more, you can get the 32 GB card, which will reduce SD card wear due to the larger number of write locations. Well worth the extra money.
   
5. "Install Base OS – Raspbian Stretch Lite" Pi-Hole supports a newer version of the OS, Buster.
   
6. "PiHole has DHCP capabilities, which means it can act as your DHCP server and assign IP addresses to your clients. However, most routers can do this well as well. Check the FAQs later in this guide for Pi Hole vs Router as DHCP server." I think in this section you are confusing the static IP setup with the DHCP server. The screen is noting that you can either use the IP that the existing DHCP server is providing, or manually assign one. This is completely separate from the operation of the Pi-Hole DCHP server, which is configured from the web admin GUI.
   
7. "PiHole puts itself between your DNS server and clients" See comment 1 above.
   
8. "you can leave the defaults as is in the unused protocol (IPV6) will be disabled automatically." A Pi will give itself an IPv6 address, so the IPv6 won't be disabled automatically since you have selected to enable IPv6 blocking.
   
9. "But leaving query logging on will increase writes to your SD card and reduce its life. I have already burned two SD cards in less than a year." I don't think your two failed cards in a year were due to Pi-Hole logging. Many users have the same SD card running with Pi-Hole for many years with no problems. Early SD card failure is normally due to a weak power supply to the Pi (or perhaps an infant mortality failure).
   
10. "can be accessed using a web browser with the URL http://IP-ADDRESS/admin/*. IP-ADDRESS is the Pi Hole server’s local IP address (eg. 192.168.1.26 in this guide)" Or using [http://pi.hole/admin*](http://pi.hole/admin)
    
11. "A lot more are documented here and here." You should also reference the terminal command man pihole , which will always be current for whichever version of Pi-Hole the user is running. Your first link is a 2016 FAQ (probably not current),
    
12. "then make sure to disable caching and DNSSEC validation. These are taken care of by Unbound and duplication can slow things down" Neither will slow down unbound. DNSSEC validation in Pi-Hole with unbound already doing DNSSEC is a pass-through, and simply enables the DNSSEC output in the query log. Due to some existing DNSSEC bugs in dnsmasq, the developers recommend not using Pi-Hole DNSSEC with unbound or Cloudflared. I am not aware of any rigorous testing that shows that disabling the Pi-Hole cache with unbound increases the speed of unbound, but without the Pi-Hole cache your locally blocked results are not cached. The developers have not recommended disabling the Pi-Hole cache in any scenario that I am aware of.

> 512GB is currently the largest capacity available.

There's 1TB cards available. Crazy expensive though.

Great deals on these cards. That 512GB will probably be $50 or less by black friday.

The price per gigabyte for flash storage vs. optical disc storage remains as much of a problem today as it was in the N64 era. For a rough idea of the difference, let's look at average consumer prices for a spindle of blu ray discs vs. a high-capacity flash storage device:

http://www.amazon.com/PNY-128GB-MicroSDXC-Memory-P-SDUX128U160G-GE/dp/B00W77C1W4

128GB of flash storage for $30 (an average price of slightly over $0.23/GB), vs.

http://www.amazon.com/Optical-Quantum-OQBDR06LT-50-Blu-Ray-Recordable/dp/B009KXE4VO

about 1.25TB of optical storage for $24 (an average price of <$0.02/GB).

Flash storage remains, to this day, over an order of magnitude more expensive than optical storage per unit of data. Scale that up times hundreds of millions for every game printed and it's easy to see why we're still using discs, and why third parties flocked to Sony in the N64 era. Yes, cartridges have their advantages, but for third parties it's not worth paying literally 10x the price per storage unit - that cuts into their profit margins (especially considering that the size of the average AAA game today is probably something like 30GB minimum).

For that reason alone I sincerely doubt the NX will return to anything like cartridges.

There's a couple 256GB ones on Amazon too.

> I don't need a $230 256GB microSD

The cheapest Samsung microSD with 256 GB is only 140 Dollar on Amazon.com: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-microSDXC-Adapter-MB-MC256DA-AM/dp/B01JNGCWHU/

Given that Samsung produces them inhouse and that they are mostly that expensive because of the novelty factor this is even with the cam or charger more of a 100 Dollar off deal.

How you and the people that upvoted think that the extras justifying a price drop of probably +550 Dollar is beyond me...

> the idea that a decent SD card is slower than a 5400 rpm HDD is laughable.

you might want to check your data again.

here is a list of micro sd card benchmarks from 2016 https://havecamerawilltravel.com/photographer/fastest-microsd-cards

the fastest micro sd card they tested managed 86MB/s sequential read and 83MB/s random read. average cards on that list, including class 10s were 50 MB/s or less.

here is an Amazon listing for the expensive Samsung EVO card he talked about in the video

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Select-Memory-MB-ME256DA-AM/dp/B01G7L03OS/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1484358997&sr=8-13&keywords=samsung+evo+micro+sd

Samsungs own listing for the product says its capable of 95 MB/s. real world performance is likely lower than manufacturer listing, it always is.

your own link shows that the best sandisk card is rated at 95 MB/s. independent benchmarks show it lower.

here is a benchmark for a 5400rpm hard drive from 2011 - http://blog.macsales.com/11825-when-slower-is-actually-faster

it averaged at 110MB/s.

here is a benchmark for a 10000rpm hard drive, since you claim that sd cards are faster than that.

http://www.anandtech.com/show/5729/western-digital-velociraptor-1tb-wd1000dhtz-review/2

it averaged at 213MB/s for sequential read

he is right. only the extremely high end microsd cards can get close to a good 5400rpm hard drive, let alone a 10000rpm hd like you claim.

turns out you are the one who doesnt know what he is talking about

It's pretty crazy that this is 131,072 times more storage and like a 20th of the size.

Unless you want an extra 16GB of storage, then add $200 so they can put a $6 flash chip in it.

EDIT: OK, it's actually $200 for 32 gb of memory that costs $15.

Those are some nice visualizations.

I've always found the most impressive tech advancement to be digital storage, particularly flash memory and the way we keep finding innovative ways to drastically increase storage density over and over without even shrinking the die. Right now we know for absolute certain that we can increase density 250-fold over the current highest without any new innovations. The thing holding it back right now is cost.

If you trace Flash back to its roots you find it was first available as a 1MB PCMCIA card costing $350 in 1991. Since then cost per GB of flash memory has halved every 14 months without fail. If that rate continues, which seems likely (it's probably even accelerating), 64TB MicroSD cards will be under $30 within 10 years.

If that seems impossible, remember that 10 years ago the biggest MicroSD available was 2gb and cost $100.

Ray Kurzweil and his impossibly optimistic predictions

How is it miraculously tiny? Micro SD cards are smaller yet come in 128 GB sizes. http://www.amazon.ca/SanDisk-Ultra-MicroSDXC-Memory-Adapter/dp/B00IIJ6W4S

This is why I'm glad I just picked up a dashcam.. Columbus idiots out in full force this morning...

Edit.. because some asked.. It's a VIOFO A119S with a Transcend 32gb card. Mounted to windshield.

Comparable SanDisk for $149.

Edit: I'll say that BestBuy's prices on Micro SD cards are normally pretty brutal. Even on there "sales" always make sure to compare with other websites or at least Amazon.

First of all: Screen Protector. Once it's on you never notice it, doesn't hurt to get that extra safety!

I've bought 10 games so far, and I'd say get all of these because I have enjoyed them. BOTW, Splatoon 2, Sonic Mania, Rayman Legends, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 (assuming you like DBZ,) Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Pokken Tournament DX, Street Fighter 2 Ultra, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, and Yooka Laylee.

If I had to pick 3 for you to get to start out then I would pick Breath of the Wild, Splatoon 2, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. I think that's enough variety to keep you busy for awhile.

A carrying is always a good thing, I'd recommend This case because it's the one I use and does its job.

Accessory wise I have joycon grips which are AMAZING when playing with one joycon.

Also, the grip it comes with is trash. Get the Power A Grip it feels A LOT better in your hands.

As for SD Cards, it depends. I have a 32GB SD card. I mainly buy physical games, The extra space is for screenshots and videos, and download only games, like Sonic Mania, Yooka Laylee, etc. If you're going for digital only then get a 256GB. Sure you won't use a ton of space now, but you might a few years down the line. Also, do NOT get the official Nintendo ones. They are a RIP-OFF! Here are some nice alternatives that will get the job done for A LOT cheaper: 32 GB 64 GB 128 GB and finally 256 GB

If you have any other questions feel free to ask OP, and other (potential) switch owners!

Quick edit: sorry that some links won't be put with the text, no idea what the issue is

Why is this 32gb fucker $69.01 when A Sandisk 32gb costs $18.88?? For Christ's sake Sony you wonder why people aren't buying your vitas and you're making these prices up?

Just... every time you think you're smart, you realize a team of people have figured out insane shit like your eight-core processor and have made the process cheap enough for the average person to afford.

Going just beyond the math of HOW to make a processor, but actually building the machines that can assemble it. It's one thing for the science to work on paper, yet another to make it a reality.

Think about all the visions of the future we used to have. Ejecting a 4" holographic disc full of data. Yeah? We kicked that in it's ass. We have the technology to store over one trillion bits in a package small enough to literally swallow, for less than the cost of a cheap wooden picnic table, and it's still bigger than it actually needs to be for the sake of our clumsy, stupid hands.

Not fake, just expensive. Larger sizes are coming out all the time.

They're $79.99 on amazon.ca and then you don't have to bother with US shipping and customs bullshit

256GB, works in S7s, has been out for a while.

Edit: Apparently there are 512GB micros out now.

You're asking for waaay to much for something you got for free.

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Select-Memory-MB-MF128DA-AM/dp/B01DOB6YUQ

This is a VERY fast MicroSD card you can find (128GB), but is more expensive.


256 GB, in my opinion, is way too expensive right now. Prices should be better by the end of the year.

3rd party.

https://www.amazon.ca/Samsung-Class-Micro-Adapter-MB-MC256GA/dp/B074JKDXG3

note: OP's seller is listed on both pages, with a different price.

If you're really worried about reliability, treat yourself to the SanDisk Ultra 16GB card. It's a pretty big splurge, more pricey than cheaper cards, and way overkill for Pi-hole, but that's the price you pay for peace of mind.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B073K14CVB/ref=dp_ob_neva_mobile

Your wallet may never recover

Do they even say? All I see is "write speed is lower" compared to the 100 transfer speed. At least the Switch one I can find an actual write speed listed at 90 while transfer speed is 100.

My guess is most if not all people wont notice a difference.

EDIT: Is this the unbranded version? https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Extreme-microSDXC-Memory-Adapter/dp/B07FCMKK5X/ref=dp_ob_title_ce

Speaking of dash cam, I highly recommend this one! I've had it two years now and it works great, hot summer days and blistering cold winters. The quality is 1080p, front AND back at 30fps. But don't skimp on the memory card. I got this beauty and haven't had a complaint since my last card, which was cheaper, went out on it. The only issue is it will hold 10 hours of footage. But you see everything in these recordings!

This solves ALL your storage problems with the PSP (though I think it can only detect up to 64 GB)

You'll want one (or more) of these paired with a couple of 16GB microSD cards. It costs about $25 to get 32GB of space as opposed to about $75 for a 32GB MS Pro Duo card.

You can also get this which is just one of those adapters with two 16GB microSD cards included. The availability and prices change on Amazon all the time, so just search for "ms pro duo microsd" to see what the current best deals are.

Actually they go a bit higher than that.

Already exists for the sony proprietary sticks, probably exists for SD somewhere too.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B001RPEJA4/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Works great in my PSP.

Most tablets and phones, including the Venue 8 Pro need microSD cards and cannot utilize full size SD cards. 128GB microSD cards are cutting edge, first released on Feb 2014, and quite expensive at $115 each.

Onboard memory runs at ~150 MB/s, whereas microSD runs at only 10~15 MB/s. Non-sequential performance is even worse.

My Venue 11 Pro doesn't support UHS-1. The Venue 8 Pro likely won't either.

Installing programs onto microSD takes some additional leg work (mounting). microSD doesn't support use of the recycling bin, all files are deleted permanently (even if the drive is mounted).

A lot of files for system services (Windows OS, System Restore, Shadow Copy, hiberfil.sys, etc) need to be kept on the C:\ drive.

Despite these limitations, microSD expansion is great. I have a 64GB microSD card in my 64GB Venue 11 Pro.

I would suggest not doing what you are asking.

Keep the SD card you have. Get a USB drive. They're half as much, and you can add on to the space you already have.

Here is one that is ~$28. Compared to ~$55 micro SD Card..

If you keep your current card and get a USB, you would have about 160 GB of space combined. It will also save you $20.

In my personal experience, I went from a 32 GB card that was supported and worked great, to one step up to a 64 GB (same model, just a larger size). For whatever reason the card can't read continuously, which causes pausing while browsing and stuttering during PS1 movie intros. I ordered two of them, and both have the same issues. I did lots of testing, Pi 2 and Pi 3, 2 different 32 GB cards and 2 different 64 GB cards. The 64 GB cards just had issues with reading and occasionally writing. There were never errors, or bad writes, just delays which can cause pausing. Putting the PS1 games on a USB drive solved that.

Edit: If you're using all the ports on the Pi, then upgrading the card might be less of a headache.

I have an A119 in the truck and every car I own. $90 on Amazon. It's nice and slim and works without any issues. I leave it on 24/7, it has motion detection so it won't record if nothing is moving for hours.

Make sure your get a high endurance card, not just an SD card. Most of the time it's actually the card that craps out, not the camera.

https://www.amazon.com/TRANSCEND-INFORMATION-Endurance-Microsd-TS32GUSDHC10V/dp/B01BDKTQY6

Here you go! 256 gb sd card. Should be able to record 3-4 shifts non stop. It could then just overwrite itself as it does now. And would only need to be removed when an incident happens, but would have 3 days worth of evidence instead of T+30 seconds IF they turned it on. Even if we upgraded that to a 512gb card so your have 1.5 weeks of video....at around $250 a piece..and at your 100 officers...that's $25k. If police forces can spend $250k on an Armored vehicle that doesn't get used...why can't they afford 25k and buy something that can ACTUALLY protect the Police AND civilians?

>That memory card alone is $200

It's actually $160 right now, and has been as low as $130 recently. The 128GB version is under $50.

$99 was an absolute steal, but I wouldn't write off the card as a standalone purchase.

First off, read my info here against utilizing a flash drive for maintaining your softmod. You do NOT want your only NAND backup on that thing if it fails.

Besides this, my best recommendations are:

1. Use a portable SSD over a traditional portable HDD.
   
2. A great portable SSD that I would recommend is this one. It's a medium-sized 256GB SSD that's around $45. If you're interested, their page also hosts a 1TB drive for $119 but that's completely up to you.
   
   The reasons I'm recommending a mid-triple digit megabit transfer rates are not for your Wii or even future Wii U system, it's for backup ability and higher transfer speeds to copy from a PC, or other device with extreme ease.
   
   My next recommendation is a C10 ultra speed SD card averaging in at 128GB. With a micro to standard SD card adaptor, you can even use a mobile device to begin softmodding your Wii via Letterbomb. Check it out here
   
   The reasoning for such an unnecessary amount of space for your SD is for the predictable inability to utilize the GameCube's Nintendont software. Pretty common to have this fail in various areas.
   
   Software recommendations: Wii Backup Manager (x86/x64). This will be helpful for back and forth compatibility between your pc (if you have one), and your Wii. Without it in front of me, I can't remember the GameCube iso prep tool for expanding and shrinking isos, but if you're interested in that I'll pull that data from my old external for you to utilize (of course if you decide to play GC games).
   
   Hardware recommendations: simply get a GameCube controller. Though it's hard to spot an official GC controller on Amazon for a decent price, it's worth searching.
   
   I've had my Wii modded for almost 6 - 7 years and have played it forever. Before that, I had another Wii that I had modded for 3 years. I've never had more fun until my Wii U came in the mail a few days ago.
   
   Hope this helps! ✌️

Switching to 1TB microSDXC cards (5 g mass), you could ship 20 EB of data and bandwidth would be 1.286 TB/s for a 180 day trip.

The storage would probably cost around $4 billion (or 2 SLS launches).

They do, but it's gonna cost you $450 on Amazon

https://www.amazon.com/MicroSD-MicroSDHC-Adapter-Converts-Cards/dp/B001RPEJA4

Here ya go.

Not really, buy two of these and one of these and you can get 32gb of storage for 18.38$ excluding shipping.

edit: Wait, nvm I'm wrong and just assumed it used pro duo like the PSP. I was seriously debating buy a vita, but now...

here. let me rub a little salt into that wound

http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-MicroSDXC-Memory-Adapter/dp/B00IIJ6W4S

Bruh, the HTC One M8 has the capability to use a 128 gig and a 64 gig micro sd. Hell, the 64 gig one is on sale too

I don't know what your definition of "cheap" is but I ended up going this direction - http://amzn.com/B00W77C1QU - it's a brand I've used in the past and the reviews (with speed tests) looked promising. $25 for a (reliable brand) 64gb U3 card was tough to beat in my shopping around.

a better deal here.

http://www.amazon.com/PNY-128GB-MicroSDXC-Memory-P-SDUX128U160G-GE/dp/B00W77C1W4

Both give me the same issue. Initially I was saving to a Class 10 card, and was told to try the internal storage. Same issue, so I went out and bought this UHS-1 card which is very fast, still same issue.

I recommend you not to use Adoptable Storage. The card you chose is slow compared to storage chips on the phone and that could cause problems with apps. In specs sheet of most cards, write speed is not even written, which is generally like ~8-10 time slower than read speed. Always check for write speed since you are going to take photos and videos.

If you still want to use Adoptable Storage, go for Samsung ones with UHS-3 like this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DOB6YUQ/ref=psdc_3015433011_t1_B01CO48M36

You can also get Evo+, Pro (for general usage, 1080p videos, without adoptable storage) or Pro+ ones but those looks like discontinued. Evo Select looks like the new series.

But you can save your photos directly to SD card even if you do not use Adoptable Storage, but still recommend to get a UHS-3 card minimum.

Also, when you first activate your phone, you should have got an offer from Google. 100GB cloud storage, use that too if you have forgotten you have activated it.

Also, beware that some sellers on Amazon are selling counterfeit cards. Always check that "Ships from and sold by Amazon.com" is written while buying SD cards.

Carrier pigeons, with training, can carry up to 75 grams of cargo.

The largest microSD card available today holds 256 gigabytes, and weighs about 0.5 grams.

So with some basic math we could assume that a carrier pigeon can hold up to 150 of these microSD cards, or 38.4 terabytes.

You should definitely look into a decent MicroSDXC card to store digital games, since many of the games worth playing on Switch are only available on the eShop. Plus, you'll want to take advantage of good sales when they come up.

Be sure to get a card from a manufacturer with a good reputation - there are a lot of phony cards out there that claim to be bigger than they actually are.

Here is a decent 128GB card for $18

Here's a 256GB card for $38

Here's a 512GB card for $71

Hope this helps!

I consider Sandisk microSD cards to be cheap and unreliable. Ive been using Samsung Endurance cards with always recording the past 6 months without issues in my 6 wyze cams:

​

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Endurance-128GB-Micro-Adapter/dp/B07B9KTLJZ

You should look for a high endurance MLC card. I personally have a 32gb trancend high endurance card which I managed to get for $33 so you might be able to find a better deal than the $40 it's currently going for. But you will have to spend more for the increased endurance.

MLC cards have two bits of memory per cell. TLC cards have three bits of memory per cell.

TLC cards are more dense and therefore cheaper to produce but lack the endurance that you want for something that is constantly recording and being over written.

This article goes much more indepth but is a little more focused on SSDs than micro sds but it's the same silicon tech.

As others have stated, the A119 is awesome. Optional GPS and the video quality is top notch. If you want it on even when your car is off, you'll have to get a fuse adapter which you'll need to hardwire into your car. Relatively simple but requires some grunt work. Otherwise, you can run the USB cable to your cigarette lighter by removing the paneling around your windshield. Simple in every car though it can appear daunting. I went the cigarette lighter route and it took me all of 3 hours to get the whole thing installed. Make sure you get SpyTec though. The hardware is sold by a third party manufacturer and rebranded by several sellers. SpyTec has the best customer support and they use a little better housing. Also, make sure you get a high endurance micro sd made for being written over several hundred times before burning out. You'll want to replace it once a year depending on how much you drive. I use this guy. Enjoy the peace of mind!

Worth mentioning, some people will tell you not to get the GPS because you can incriminate yourself if you were speeding. But the police can pull your speed based on the road dashes, so you're gonna get nicked either way. So don't base your decision off that.

Anyone have any opinion on this card?
It seems to have the same read/write and is ~$20 less on amazon than OPs card.

I wouldn't get the Evo Line for a switch. Its cheaper than the pro line and tends to have higher storage capacities. On the other hand it has a much shorter life span so you will need to buy a new one sooner than you would if you bought the Pro line.

The reason for the life difference is because the Evo line uses TLC memory and the Pro line uses MLC memory. TLC memory Read/write life cycles are around 3,000 to 5,000 cycles per cell. On the other hand MLC read/write life is around 10,000 per cell. One source among many.

TL:DR- MLC memory has longer life span than TLC memory. Evo uses TLC memory Pro uses MLC.

Judging by the reviews it is most likely a fake card. 66% of people who got that gave it a 1 star rating with negative reviews. And note the many reviews stating it is a fake card. I would return it. And the price should have been a tip off. Something like this is more along the right price for a 256 GB MICRO SD card and not $22.99.

In the end read the reviews before ordering something. And compare it to similar items. It things look to good to be true, then more than likely it is.

It was $100 January 13th, never been lower (on Amazon.) Who's to say when it'll drop again. It's been awhile though, maybe soon.

SanDisk was just $116 on Wednesday. https://camelcamelcamel.com/SanDisk-Ultra-MicroSDXC-Adapter-SDSQUNI-256G-GN6MA/product/B01IC0GJKE

US$149 = NZ$207

But it doesn't ship to NZ, so add $12.50 for Youshop

Save yourself NZ$67 (when on sale in NZ and not in USA) by buying off Amazon.

RIP NZ.

????????????

Just buy it directly?

They're always marked up many times above their actual market value if you buy them as 'xyz system memory cards' instead of as regular microsd cards. Exact same thing.

Idk I buy the more expensive samsung endurance cards for my a119. I would trust that one a lot more than this for longevity. Been using mine for 7 months so far and no issues.

This is a LOT of work for a sub $20 purchase...

http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-32GB-microSDHC-Memory-Package/dp/B003WGJYCY

SanDisk 32GB microSDHC Memory Card (Bulk Package) Price: $13.99.

PM me and I will buy you this card if money is that tight. I would only ask that you do something nice for someone else that is within your means as this seems to be stretching your budget already.

There are LOTS of ways to hide things.

• Make Magazine has some suggestions.
  
  
• Family Handyman has more suggestions.
  
  
• I love the hollow coin method of hiding microSD cards - which can hold LOTS of information!
  
  
• Amazon has LOTS of secret safes.
  
  My favorite? An empty, wide-mouthed pill bottle when I then "plant" inside a pot. Surrounded by dirt, topped with a Golden Pothos. The Pothos is a resilient, long-suffering plant that thrives on benign neglect, AND it looks great doing so!

Fortunately that's not the case any longer, though it's likely the case for ~140-ish GB and more. You can buy an Android device with 16-64GB of internal storage and then if it supports MicroSD you can throw a 128GB card in and rock on.

That's what I did (though not the 128gb version) when I got fed up with the lousy iPod Touch battery and camera on my iPod Touch 4th gen. Bought a Galaxy SII, threw in a microSD card and had my entire library, a nicer camera and modern OS for around $200 at the time. Didn't hurt to get GPS capability and replaceable batteries, either.

Just in cases, if for some reason you're running higher bit rates you might want to look at this instead. I've had some GoPro's dropout after a bit with slower bit rated cards (even class 10) so stepping up to the extreme class.

Actually upon further inspection it looks like these prices are not that killer. I don't know, shop smart people.

Not when they can sell you something for $30 : http://www.apple.com/search/sd-card?src=serp

Not to mention almost double the market price for the Sandisk SDcard.

http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Extreme-MicroSDXC-Adapter-SDSQXNE-064G-GN6MA/dp/B013CP5IWO/ref=lp_2530343011_1_12?srs=2530343011&ie=UTF8&qid=1449591916&sr=8-12

Why do you want such a wide angle lens? 170 will Fish Eye horribly and will definitely distort distance.

I suggest: Best value: Xiaomi Yi Dashcam - On sale ($50 USD)

Heat/cold might be an issue being lithium ion. No parking mode. Great day vision, Great night vision, excellent Wide Dynamic Range. 165 ultra wide-angle will fish eye, making it harder to capture license plates, but not as much as you were asking for. Adhesive mount comes with it, but you can buy other accessories to mount to rear view mirror or other locations.

Here is a few reviews on the Xiamo Yi: Car Cam Central Techmoan

BTW micro SD card - Transcend High Endurance - Do not buy SanDisk

Those work just fine. A couple MicroSD cards tend to be a bit cheaper than an MS Pro Duo by itself.

Here's a sweet adapter, I THINK this is what people are talking about in this thread.

I just recently got one from Ebay, you can try there. I'm sure the preowned from Gamestop are fine as well.

As far as memory..my recommendation is to pick up (2) of these http://www.amazon.com/Sandisk-16GB-MicroSDHC-Memory-Class/dp/B001F7AJKI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1334935355&sr=8-1
and (1) of these http://www.amazon.com/MicroSD-MicroSDHC-Adapter-Converts-Cards/dp/B001RPEJA4/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1334935402&sr=1-1
this will work great in the PSP 3000 and will save you alot of money as compared to just getting a 32gb pro duo card.

1. As long as its a memory stick duo it should work. Even adapters like this work: http://www.amazon.com/MicroSD-MicroSDHC-Adapter-Converts-Cards/dp/B001RPEJA4/ref=sr_1_26?ie=UTF8&qid=1335798672&sr=8-26
   
   
2. The main advantages are that you can run homebrew, emulators, and pirated games... its very simple to do and there are lots of tutorials around. Here are a couple really good guides:

   http://forums.exophase.com/showthread.php?t=19379

I got one of these, then 2pack of 32gb microSDHC cards at newegg for $25 or so. Worked out cheaper that way. My laptop has a microSD card reader, so I don't really need the USB adapter.

I'm about to hack my New! 3ds xl and am looking for a micro sd card that will work.
Is this any good?

https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-32GB-microSDHC-Memory-Package/dp/B003WGJYCY

In Finland, we can do 60 tons when you have at least 7 axles and a combined length of 25,25m at the most. I'm assuming they fit just fine.

Assuming that the transporting equipment itself weighs ~10 tons, we can use 50 tons just for the cards, which can be 32 GB, we get 3.2 exabytes at the cost of 84.45 Billion USD.

Flash memory is dirt cheap. Manufacturers use it for tiering their clients and nothing more. On Amazon for $12

Get a class 10 microSD with an adapter. That way, if you decide to upgrade to a New 3ds at some point in the future, you don't have to buy storage all over again.

I'm using one of these right now and it's working fine.

Your in luck. Amazon is currently having basically half off micros sd cards.
Order this and this and you will have 32gb storage with room to grow for about 30 dollars.

Amazon currently have the 32gb San Disk that everyone uses on sale http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-MicroSDHC-Memory-Adapter-SDSDQU-032G-AFFP-A/dp/B009QZH7BU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1370328639&sr=8-1&keywords=San+Disk+32gb+micro+SD

Get a Class 10 MicroSDHC, the Class 10 is the important part; this is the speed at which the memory card can read & write. Too slow (a lower class) and it won't be able to keep up with the HD video that your camera throws at it.

I recommend 32GB at the minimum. This will net you about 4.5 hrs at 1080p/30p.

Edit: I personally have the SanDisk 32GB Ultra Class 10 MicroSDHC. Got it on sale at Staples for $15 when I got my H3B. But $22 is still reasonable IMO. Comes with SD adapter.

Edit 2: In reply to Dubkingben's comment. I am on a Hero 3 Black. The highest I have recorded is 1080p 60p with ProTune on on RAW WB and haven't experienced any cutting out, personally. But obviously, if you plan to record in 2.7k+ or any of the higher-res settings, probably best to go with their Extreme series.

Thanks guys.

alright i got you get one of the sansa players with a micro sd slot, the clip+ is the smallest shit ever so you can take it anywhere.

then pick up either a 32 gb class 10 micro sd card on amazon for 23 bucks or you can go all out and get a 64 gb micro sd card for 50 bucks.

links:

Clip Plus

32GB Micro SD

64GB Micro SD

total cost for a 32 gb player = about $50; for a 64 gb player = about $80

This?

From my experience with SDHC cards of different varieties, you're never going to get the speeds the manufacturers quote but if you do your research you can get a card that is fairly close. I have been using class 10 and UHS-1 cards since they came out and they have good read\write speeds. With my ADATA I get ~60 MB/s read and ~40 MB/s write the last time I tested it out when I got it. Here's a link (2013 but will give you an idea of differences) that benchmarks several different class cards.
Here's a benchmark of a newer SanDisk UHS-1 from this year which gets read and write speeds of ~90 MB/s and ~60 MB/s.

I'd recommend trying to find reviews\benchmarks of whatever card you're interested in because real word speeds and theoretical speeds vary quite a bit and often a cheaper card may perform better than a more expensive one.

Also: SanDisk released a 128GB microSD earlier this year..beware of fakes

edit: typos

It will likely be this one by SanDisk as that is the only one on the market right now. No one else is making that capacity yet.

>1) I have a 1 TB USB 2.0 HD that my SP2 won't recognize. I believe it's a Seagate that I bought a few years ago to backup my files. I'm reading online that some externals won't work with the SP2 because there isn't enough power being utilitized for it or something. Ok. The HD lights up, but isn't recognized. My SP2 is plugged in, and my HD doesn't have a power source of its own (it doesn't plug into the wall). Am I SOL? I would hate to replace a perfectly good 1TB HD.

Try using a USB powered HUB. I use the Anker USB 3.0 4 Port hub and it works great for devices that need to be powered.

EDIT: Some devices that may need power from the USB may work with a non-powered hub. The hub I linked to will work, try it plugged in first to install the drivers and then again without powering the hub. It may work.

>2) On that note, how do YOU store your files? I am so far behind with cloud storage it isn't even funny. I know I'm living in the stone age, but I like having the physical HD that I can plug in. The remaining space in my 128 GB SP2 is barely going to cover my music, never mind the movies/photos/other that I have. I don't need them all at the drop of a hat, but they are there. So what's the best fix? An external 3.0? Cloud storage? Some kind of NAS like the WD My Cloud?

I use a combination of Dropbox and SkyDrive OneDrive as well as my own personal deployed "cloud" solution located on my NAS. I also have a HTPC that runs Plex Media Server which gives me access to my media collection on the go. Think of it as a free personal Netflix service.

For local storage however, I also have a 64GB microSD card installed which I use to store downloads, local music and movies, software installers, and other documents.

SanDisk just released a 128GB microSD card if you're after more local storage options.

>3) I like watching video files from my laptop on my HDTV. Best way to do this? I used to just use an HDMI cable and VLC. Do I buy a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI converter? Any loss in quality? If anybody has one that they would recommend, I would appreciate it. Not sure if I only need a simple <$10 one or if those are cheap knockoffs that will break. Or just bypass it all and look into the Chromecast?

Yes, you'll need a miniDP to HDMI converter to use your TV as an external display. There is no loss in quality since it's just a digital to digital conversion. You can use a basic adapter like this or an all-in-one solution like this.

Chromecast IMO is shit as it's limited to screen casting on whats displayed inside of chrome. So unless all you need to cast is web based media, I suggest avoiding chromecast altogether. You'll be better off using a miracast device than wasting your money on chromecast.

EDIT: Using either miniDP or the Miracast solution is entirely up to you. It all depends on how much you want to spend, portability, and accessibility.

The miniDP solution will obviously cost less and will be more portable as it's just a simple cable that you can take around and plug-in to any HDMI receiver. The Miracast solution will be convenient in the fact that it's wireless, allowing you to cast what's on your SP2 to your TV without being tethered, however it's more of a hassle bringing it around if you travel a lot as it's more of a set it and forget it solution. Here's an example of Miracasting.

this is the biggest micro SD I could find. although I'm sure a 16GB one will be fine since that's all I've had since 2011 in my original 3DS.

Alternative take using the best storage density currently available (http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-MicroSDXC-Memory-Adapter/dp/B00IIJ6W4S)

1 TB = 1024 GB (Bytes are usually grouped into sets of 2^10 or 1024 rather than the sets of 1000 implied by SI units) thus 8,388,608 TB = 8,589,934,592 GB

According to wikipedia a micro SD card is 15.0×11.0×1.0 mm or 1.65 10^-7 cubic meters

1.65 10^-7 cubic meters / 128 GB = 1.29 10 ^ -9 Cubic meters / Gigabyte

1.29 10 ^ -9 Cubic meters / Gigabyte * 8,589,934,592 Gigabytes = a measly 11.07 cubic meters to store all that data

However, high storage density comes with a steep price. Those 67,108,864 SD cards are going to cost a whopping $7,180,648,448 (7 billion dollars).

it wouldnt be such an issue if they'd just put 128gb in the phone in the first place, and not charge an extra $200 for that... why would anyone do that when they could just add one of these? http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-MicroSDXC-Adapter-SDSDQUA-128G-G46A-Version/dp/B00IIJ6W4S

Class 10 only means 10 MB/s which really isn't that fast. When I reboot my files take maybe 15 seconds to appear on my homescreen. I use a Samsung pro which claims 90 MB/s speeds.

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Electronics-Adapter-MB-MG64DA-AM/dp/B00IVPU88U/ref=psdc10_t1_B00IVPU7AO_B00IVPU88U

A very fast SD card would be the 64 GB Samsung Pro, if you can find it cheaper than Amazon is selling it right now (got mine for $60, don't know why it's $80+ now).

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Electronics-Adapter-MB-MG64DA-AM/dp/B00IVPU88U/ref=dp_ob_title_ce

Not sure about SD performance on the tablet, but this should be faster than most cheaper SD cards.

Samsung's Pro line is very quick, quickest I know of Amazon

For a 128GB card these should be great, I have the 64 GB version linked here and have found it to be very quick Amazon

Actually the samsung pro series claims 90 MB/s read and 80 MB/s write.
link

>Do you know if it is fast enough?

I don't, and I think there are better options.

One of the problems with going onto Reddit before I have my morning coffee is that my brain is only have half awake. The music, phone, video part registered in my brain, but the 4k part didn't (probably because my old phone can't even come close to that). Either of these two Samsung's would be better. The cheaper one has faster advertised write speeds.

I use this one found on Amazon - Seems to work pretty well.

I told you wrong. Its the Turbo. This thing reads at 90Mb/S and write around 50-60Mb/s. Pretty great for the price.

Lexar cards are garbage now. The company was dissolved and the name was sold and is now manufactured by crappy Chinese companies that care only about the name.

You want to use micro SD cards that use MLC technology. The old TLC standard does not work as well and cannot take the harsh conditions or constant overwriting of files. I recommend the Transcend High Endurance model

If you are on a tight budget you may want to consider the Transcend Premium 400X or the Samsung EVO Select

1. Transcend High Endurance Micro sd card, the silver colored cards that are designed for dvr and dashcam use.
   
2. 1440, 30fps for slightly better res to see plates.
   
3. the camera itself can move on two axes, so it will work pretty much anywhere you stick it.
   
4. • I own four of these and I love them. Started with a single a118c, and moved that to rear view duty, using the 4 119c's as primary front views on 3 cars and on one as a rear view. Get the GPS module and a dedicated power supply like a rio-rand usb voltage converter if you plan to hardwire it. The gps module allows you to slide the camera on and off without touching the power cable since it connects first to the GPS module. Also get the capacitor model, The "C" since it is less prone to long term battery expansion issues in high heat environments.

Some new cards like (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01BDKTQY6)[Transcend's High Endurance] have MLC NAND which is designed to endure higher writes. They are good for things like dash cams which do loop recording, so I'd assume work better for log files too.

Compré la más popular en /r/Dashcam – VIOFO A119 v2 más la lente polarizada para no grabar la reflexión del interior de auto y microSD de alta resistencia (por las temperaturas dentro del auto). La uso en el modo 1080p 30fps y la calidad de videos es super buena durante el día – puedo ver todos los números en las placas de otros autos.

Sena Prism Tube

Cheap, simple, easy to mount. There's no settings. 1080p @ 30fps. Turn it on and go. Just do the firmware update to get loop recording.

Oh, and get a memory card that's designed for continuous recording. Dash/helmet cams kill regular memory cards in a few months.

Im sorry but you over payed. Samsung evo select pro 128gb for $76 same class

On Amazon the 256gb Evo select and 128 GB Evo select appear to be different speeds. The 256gb is labeled as U3 while the 128gb is labeled as U1. 256 Evo select is supposed to be 95 read, 90 write

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Select-Memory-MB-ME256DA-AM/dp/B01G7L03OS/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1484848076&sr=8-12&keywords=Samsung+micro+sd

Then there is the Evo + which I have no idea what the difference is between it and the Evo select.

Oh and then with the pro line there is the pro select and the pro+, the difference between which who the fuck knows.

Like come on Samsung, have a decent comparison tool and be less confusing please

The most space actually possible would be one of these and two of these

  This is a 95 MBps microSDXC card by Samsung it's $200 for 256GB. This is one of the faster MicroSD cards on the market. Hard drives connected via SATA II can achieve about 300 MBps.
  
  Of course if you buy the games physically then you won't have to install games to your SD cards.

I got the Samsung Evo Select 256gb for $169.99.

FWIW, I have been using Samsung EVO Plus 256gb cards without a problem in my Hero6's at 4k60. So... ¯\(ツ)/¯ https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01JNGCWHU

I'll be so livid if they reject the claim because I swapped out a defective unit after submitting for the promo.

The manager at the Best Buy said he would ensure I got a headset if that happens. I will expect a memory card at a reduced cost with that, but to be honest, after looking into it more, I can get the Samsung card for between $120 and $145 on Amazon usually, the $99 isn't that big a deal for me. I was in it more for the card than anything. He also said he'd waive the restocking fee if I get rejected and still want to reject Samsung.

I would recommend this one for only $4~ more

Samsung EVO Plus Class 10 Micro SDXC with Adapter, 128GB (MB-MC128GA/CA) https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B06XFHQGB9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_O114Ab42TVQ70

Even though the switch cannot use the faster speed, if you ever have to use it on your computer or another device you might as well have a better card!

Can anyone explain to me the difference between the one linked here and this one below it on the product page?

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-128GB-Class-Adapter-MB-MC128GA/dp/B06XFHQGB9

I'm not seeing a difference but I probably just don't understand?

As far as I know those Samsung EVO cards are pretty legit. Like this one: Amazon Link to Samsung Evo 128GB PLUS

According to reviews and benchmarks they have great random read speeds (loading speed in games). Or at least they did back when I hunted for mine. Do a google search for them and I think you won't be disappointed. :)

Samsung Evo Select Class 10 SD cards are the best when it comes to speed, reliability and price.

You can look at these two models as they're very close in price. Go for the one depending on your region as I've seen negative reviews stating that the MC model isn't warranted in the US.

MB-ME256GA/AM - MB-MC256GA

I don't know your budget, but the best you can buy right now is one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-MicroSDXC-Adapter-MB-ME256GA-AM/dp/B072HRDM55/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1535945819&sr=1-1

​

If you don't want to spend as much, you should get something like this: https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-microSDXC-Adapter-SDSQUAR-256G-GN6MA/dp/B0758NHWS8/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1535945957&sr=1-1

here is a quick search result, I'd look around for sure though. Don't trust anywhere but brand name stores as there are loads of fake sd cards out there. Sandisk makes a 200gb one that goes for about 60 bucks and is a way better deal if you don't need that extra 50gb

With an sd to usb adapter

I am currently using this one . Video quality is pretty good and you can see the footage on its mobile app. It's by Anker.

I would also recommend getting an endurance card rather than normal sd card. Like this one.

The general consensus seems to be that your money is better spent buying a high-endurance microSD card meant for dashcam use and a USB adapter to plug into the car.

You might think to just use a thumb drive, and the owner's manual says so, but many report their devices failing quickly due to environmental factors inside the car. You don't want to have an accident only to find out your drive was dead.

I bought a 64GB Samsung PRO Endurance card and an Anker USB 3.1 memory card reader for my Model 3. To view the videos I use a USB dongle to connect the card reader to my phone and then use this app to view them on my phone.

I picked up one of these for my GoPro: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FCMKK5X/ref=twister_B07V2PRSXC?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

There are 1TB and they’re on sale for prime day, unfortunatly, it still costs 340.82

This is a pretty big price drop, it's by far an all time low on amazon

This might come in handy. https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-400GB-Extreme-microSD-Adapter/dp/B07P9W5HJV/ref=mp_s_a_1_16?keywords=sd%2Bcard%2B1024gb%2Bmicro&qid=1563694776&s=gateway&sprefix=sd%2Bcard%2B1024%2B&sr=8-16&th=1&psc=1

This one it's on sale to boot.
SanDisk 1TB Extreme MicroSDXC UHS-I Memory Card with Adapter - A2, U3, V30, 4K UHD, Micro SD - SDSQXA1-1T00-GN6MA https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P9W5HJV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_Te10DbMS5F39V

I didn't even notice that. Here is ScanDisk's for 300 currently.

U3 rated cards supposedly are, and many of them that are designed to handle the throughput will have an additional V-rating on them. So for example, a card rated U3-V30 promises it can handle sustained write speeds of 30Mbps, which is (typically) fast enough for 4K video. The current highest rating is V90, which would even handle 8k video with no problems. but you'll also note that you pay a premium for those extra speeds.

All that said, a signal chain is only as fast as its slowest link, so if the camera can't save the video fast enough due to some other bottleneck, a fast card may still not give you the performance you're hoping for.

I use one of these (http://www.amazon.com/MicroSD-MicroSDHC-Adapter-Converts-Cards/dp/B001RPEJA4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1396117980&sr=8-1&keywords=dual+micro+sd+adapter) and two 64GB cards for mine. I have a few friends who do the same.

Not on a USB stick, however you can use a cheap adapter to play games on a micro SD card instead of having to buy Sony's over priced junk.

This is the one I use. If you search amazon you can also find sets that include the adpater, a microsd card and a USB reader all in one for less than the cost of an 8gb memory duo.

Here's the way I ended up doing it:

I bought The adapter

and a 32gb card

That way down the road if I want to I can add another 32gb card to get 64gb of memory.

It's the same price (actually slightly cheaper) and you have future chance of upgrading to the max memory.

this guide here got me going with my psp 2001. it gets you the most up to date custom firmware. from there, install emulators, homebrew, do whatever you want. i mostly use my psp for NES games and a few select psp ISOs.

oh, also i'd recommend grabbing one of these. i popped two 16gb microSDs in mine, and 32gb seems like JUST the right amount of space for the psp. 64 would be ridiculous, but still, i understand it will work with two 32gb microSDs.

I use a PSP and it works just fine once you crack it. Get yourself one of these and a couple micro SD cards, and you can reasonably hold 32 GB worth of games on the psp.

I'm pretty darn sure cutting a memory card down to size would just destroy it. You're going to need some kind of memory stick to put in there if you want to play downloaded games or install cfw. You can get a standard memory stick for the psp, or you can get the microsd to memory stick duo converter. Amazon link.

It either will work or it will not. Sometimes adapters come defective or fail.

I can tell you that I ordered this one...
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001RPEJA4/

...and it works fine with this card...
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07F6TS4TD/

I think I need more time with these to give a review. I relied on the reviews of others and made an informed decision.

I think I bought a random adapter from amazon that lets me use 2 micro SD cards. Currently I use it with a single 16 but I've been meaning to get another SD card too.

(Ninja) EDIT: went through my amazon history and found http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001RPEJA4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. I've had it for 2 years or so no problems. The Micro SD is kingston I think, so that part is a name brand.

http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-32GB-microSDHC-Memory-Package/dp/B003WGJYCY

Try it anyway even without the receipt. If it doesn't work, cheapest one on amazon is $6 bucks. Memory's gotten super cheap.

https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-32GB-MicroSDHC-Memory-Card/dp/B003WGJYCY

ULPT: Buy the Amazon one, return the old one. I don't do unethical stuff like that, that's up to you. 6 bucks is a cup of coffee at Starbucks nowadays.

You must have missed the memo that technology is awesome these days.
Here is 32 GB of storage storage. That card is maybe 100 cubic mm. Without any circuit board, contacts, or plastic shell, the flash chip alone is a small fraction of that.

I needed something on the cheap end when I first got my 3DS, so I picked up one of these guys: https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-32GB-microSDHC-Memory-Package/dp/B003WGJYCY/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1481729298&sr=8-5&keywords=Sandisk+micro+SD+card+32GB

32GB is pretty significant, and since I buy all my games digitally, I'm able to have 8-9 games on the DS without any issue, sometimes more if I'm going back and playing an older game. Fire Emblem Awakening + DLC, Fates +DLC, Monster Hunter 4/Generations and a couple other bigger games were always on the card with 20k+ blocks to spare.

If you need something, or want something a little larger; https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-micro-Memory-Tablets-All-New/dp/B013TMNKAW/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1481729403&sr=8-5&keywords=Sandisk+micro+SD+card+64GB I've had great luck with the Sandisk 64GB HC in other electronics (I have one in an adapter in my PSP.)

If you're not a fan of SanDisk, or want to stick with a bigger brand, Samsung makes some great MicroSD cards as well, specifically this which I just picked up for my work cell phone; https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Select-Memory-MB-ME64DA-AM/dp/B01DOB6YQA/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1481729493&sr=1-1&keywords=samsung+micro+sd+card

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003WGJYCY

32 GB SDHC would make my life better and faster!

The head strap ontop of goggles isn't a fun choice while snorkeling. It doesn't come down far enough with the goggles in the way to really stay on tight. It also feels uncomfortable have all that pressure on your head. When I went we used our XShot 2.0 pole and it turned out great. Just wash the pole and case with fresh water and dry after snorkeling. There are better options but for your first time out I'd say start small and buy more if you think you need it the second time out.

You wont need a red filter but you'll see improvements however I cant think of any manufacturers who have on for the Hero3+ case.

You could also get the Bobber mount so it'll never sink.

Also this is there SD cards I use

The Nyko Power grip is an amazing piece of technology. It's a shame that it's so bulky, since it's hard to carry around, but damn, doe it make the Vita a joy to hold. My battery is broken, so it's just a grip right now, but I love the thing.

39.99 USD is a price point I'm more than willing to pay. Anything more, and I'd be hesitant, but the Vita has budget priced games. Plus, I can just resell the games on Amazon when I finish them up, so I don't incur that big of a price to play the game.

Memory cards are a ripoff, there's no getting around that. Even though I got a 16 GB card for 30 USD at Best Buy, it's still a ripoff, considering how a 32 GB MicroSD card is 25 USD on Amazon, but it's tolerable at that price. I still don't get what Son'y trying to do with its memory card pricing, since they're not selling the damn things, so a price cut is drastically needed on that.

For those looking to expand their 3DS storage, this is a stellar option. The one I bought, and still love: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009QZH7BU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I started out with a 4 gig card I just had lying around which proved to be insufficient almost immediately haha. So I went ahead and got this one which has been working great for me.

Using the SanDisk ultra 32Gb, no problems.

Any modern phone should support 128gb micro sd cards..which are $100 from amazon

I guess is this the only one that works for phones?

You think that's amazing?

Check this out. Just bought one when it went on sale a month ago.

Note 4 nearly every android + [128Gb Micro SD](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IIJ6W4S/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_F4Nfub1X38PWA .)

This 128 sandisk is about $100.

The upgrade from i3 to i5 is minimum $200.

So you can get:

i3 with 64GB + 128GB = $900

i5 with 128GB = $1000

OR you can get a 64GB SD card with the i3 model, thus having the same amount of storage as the i5 model, for $840.

I would either go i3 with 64 SD or cheapest i5.

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Electronics-Adapter-MB-MG64DA-AM/dp/B00IVPU88U/ref=pd_cp_pc_1

This is the card. Did not reformat, but it comes in exFat.

I personally went with the Samsung Electronics 64GB PRO Micro SDXC for my new Note 4. Was probably a bit overkill, but I like it. There's also an Evo available as well.

Amazon Links:

• Samsung Electronics 64GB PRO Micro SDXC
  
  
• Samsung Electronics 64GB EVO Micro SDXC
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Reviews:
  
  
• Samsung PRO
  
  
• Samsung EVO
  
  
  
  
  
  
  edit: formatting. Also, benchmarks for those are on the second page of the reviews.

Oh sorry about that. here's the right one: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Electronics-Adapter-MB-MG64DA-AM/dp/B00IVPU88U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1413085129&sr=8-1&keywords=samsung+64gb+pro

But it says there's an issue with the shipping method. I got mine a month ago and it has been working perfectly. You might want to consider other retailers.

Like the other guy said I don't think it matters but do buy from good brand names. There are fakes that hold less than the mentioned capacity.

This is the one I bought for my new Pokemon bundle.

1. Yes
   
2. With a 3rd party receiver, yes. Example: Qi-infinity
   
3. 
   
4. 
   
5. Samsung EVO or Pro
   
6. I'm on Verizon, so I won't know until 2017 if I'm lucky.

I think SanDisk microSD cards just don't work well with the SP3. I had the 64gb ultra and same thing was happening to me. I bought the Samsung and I've had no problems. The exact model I'm using is:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IVPU88U/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I'd recommend you give Samsung a try.

Ooh...that's a great price. I do see faster Micro SD cards on sale, though. How noticeable are the differences between this and more expensive ones? I need to add storage space to my 128GB Surface Pro.

Edit here - I found more information on /r/surface where the subject's been discussed a few times:
http://www.reddit.com/r/Surface/comments/1retz0/micro_sd_guide/
http://www.reddit.com/r/Surface/comments/18c8l8/pro_owners_tell_me_about_the_micro_sd_card_slot/ (someone posted a benchmark test in this one comparing their micro SD to the built-in SSD)

so I guess I'll go ahead and grab this while I can! But it's odd that the full price is the same as what seems to be the faster version of the same size...

Link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00IVPU88U

Or you could get the Samsung 32GB PRO

This was my favourite card with my 3+ Black. Now I upgraded to the [ Samsung Pro micro sd] (http://amzn.com/B00IVPU88U) which should work great with 4k in the hero 4 black!

Sorry- this one then?

• Samsung S7 32GB: $672 + tax
  
• 128GB MicroSD card (48MB/s): $40 + tax
  
• Total space: 160GB
  
• Total cost: $720 + tax
  
  vs
  
  
• Nexus 6P 128GB: $649 + tax
  
  Needing more than 128GB of media on your person at all times is a niche use case, but even for people who do - OTG flash drives exist to allow people to supplement their storage space to watch movies/TV shows while traveling or whatever without requiring them to purchase a phone that has a microSD card slot. Considering restrictions on adoptable storage and 'move to SD' functionality, it is better to have a large pool of main storage instead of being forced to rely on a microSD card right out of the gate due to an anemic amount of internal storage.

there's a sale on samsung cards on amazon

I'd bet twenty bucks that card is counterfeit as shit. Look up the 128GB version of that card on Amazon and compare the pictures.

• The "256" and the "EVO" on the eBay card are in a slightly different typeface than the 128 card.
  
• The top of the "128" is aligned with the top of the "EVO" text, but the "256" is smaller and just kind of splatted on there.
  
• The 128 and below come with SD adapters, the 256 doesn't?
  
• The 256 doesn't list the capacity on the hang tag at all? Even the 32GB announces the capacity in a gigantic Helvetica Neue-esque. 256GB would be a Big Damn Deal™, you better believe they'd not be subtle about it. Maybe even Helvetica Neue Bold.
  
• The 256GB card is the same price as the 128GB? Considering the price differential between 64GB (~$35) and 128GB (~$100), that price, or anything near it, fucks the curve right to hell.
  
  Unfortunately, counterfiet SD cards and USB thumb drives are a thing now. They'll show up to your OS/camera/device as the size stated on the tin, but if you try to put that much data on there, stuff just gets overwritten. It sucks. The card in the auction may not even be 128GB. Could be four.
  
  Edit: Wanna start your own counterfeit ring? Here you go. Look at that thing. Not even close. The Samsung logo isn't even quite properly formed or kerned.

Using this 128gb Samsung microsd. Works perfectly fine

It would be about $107 cheaper for the samsung listed here or $100 cheaper for the Sandisk. So about $100 for 128 GB instead of double that, plus 32GB onboard. http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-128GB-Adapter-MB-MP128DA-AM/dp/B00P3NMVVU/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1427386463&sr=1-2&keywords=128gb+micro+sd+card

Very hard to tell.

Ask if you can put a file to test if it's actually 128gb, and preload a 64+GB file onto a hdd/flash drive, then transfer it there with him.

And maybe try use diskpart to clear and format with him watching.

Edit: probably fake. Look at the amazon ones packaging; http://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B00P3NMVVU/

I've had similar issues with microSDs corrupting themselves. So far I've had the best luck with a Samsung EVO 128GB. It's been in my 650 since October 2016 and I haven't had any issues with corrupting disks since I replaced it with that one.

I've used these 128G Samsung [Evo Select] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DOB6YW4/), [Evo] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00P3NMVVU/) and [Evo+] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XJKL1ME/). The only catch is that Windows 10 (and probably 8.1?) won't format anything over 32G as FAT32, so you'll need a 3rd party utility to do that.

Go for a UH 3 class 10 card to get the best performance.

This seems to be what everyone is recommending
PNY U3 Turbo Performance 64GB High Speed MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-I, up to 90MB/sec Flash Card (P-SDUX64U390G-GE) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00W77C1QU/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_GyEywbDZXZCNS

My microSD corrupted somehow yesterday, so I ended up ordering this one. I think it might be the same one that you mentioned.

Running without a screen protector right now and waiting for Zagg's tempered glass. DO NOT order xtremeguard protectors. I ordered a few when they were having their 90% off sale, and the cut is horrible.

PNY doesnt make their own cards

This review is the best and most exhaustive info ive found
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/review/B00W77C1QU/R1M1KB1OYANQ27/ref=cm_cr_dp_aw_rvw_1?ie=UTF8&cursor=1

Edit: okay i made a mess of this...just read the amazon review

I am currently using this one.

It is worth the money. There are Micro SD Cards that are slightly faster. The 32 GB and the 16GB models perform a lot better.

I bought several [PNY 128GB High Speed MicroDXXC Memory Cards] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00W77C1W4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_UsTsybE8JRN7C) that were on post Christmas sale ($19.99) last year. I used them on all of my devices either with adapters or without as needed per device. I neither have had issue with inadequate or degraded video play speed nor with temperature issues. Works great installed loaded with owned media in a Kingston MobileLite where Internet is not available or when you wish to save on data usage. Bought one to test and then ended up buying 12 more while still on sale. Wish they would go back on sale. Perhaps after the holidays. Memory storage devices seem to go on deep discount sale in the beginning of each year.

I bough this camera back in April 2018.

>How much is the memory card

I bought a 128 gig back in June of 2010, for 40 bucks, and it has been working fine for me.

> how well do these cameras stand up to heat?

I got the one with the battery inside and haven't had any issues yet. The heat made the double sided tape weak enough to make it fall down and hang from the wire. It happened 3 times before I ended up buying a [suction cup mount for about 6 bucks.] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N07VKIK/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1) It has only fallen down once since I installed the suction cup, but that could be because I didn't add the tiny moisture in the suction cup.

You can get a refund. Don't let it die. Also you don't need extreme. You need this exact card:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IVPU7AO?keywords=64%20gb%20microsd&qid=1453486887&ref_=sr_1_2&sr=8-2

I recently upgraded from that exact EVO to this bad mother:

Both work perfectly.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00W77C1W4?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

but the 128gb amazon has is so tasty.

I've got this card waiting for the update.
But I'm worried that I may want/need this way more expensive one. It's the only U3 128 card I could find.

This is what I used for the majority of iPods I upgraded, back when there was still demand.

Yeah you can. Been recording just as a test for 10 minutes now and haven't lost a single percentage off battery so the battery pack is keeping up with the power of the Fusion. Also make sure the cards you got are these or faster:

https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Extreme-microSDXC-Adapter-SDSQXNE-064G-GN6MA/dp/B013CP5IWO/

I had some cards that worked with the Hero 6 (https://www.amazon.com/Lexar-High-Performance-MicroSDXC-version-LSDMI64GBBNL633R/dp/B00IF4OATU/), but they were not fast enough and were giving me errors with the Fusion.

I am currently using the 64gb sandisk extreme UHS 3. I know it isn't as cheap at ~$30 but it is awesome since I use it as an internal storage for my phone.

SanDisk Extreme 64GB MicroSDXC UHS-1 Card with Adapter (SDSQXNE-064G-GN6MA) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013CP5IWO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_WrVLxb1SXYACT

I used Samsung pay on a vending machine and got a pop for $1.50. Few hours later I picked up this http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Extreme-MicroSDXC-Adapter-SDSQXNE-064G-GN6MA/dp/B013CP5IWO/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1458069723&sr=1-2&keywords=sandisk+extreme+plus and now that I'm looking at it again looks like she actually typed lower than the Amazon price (I have 5 left on the gift card)

Go with 32GB.

And buy a microSD card. I went with the SanDisk Extreme 64GB for only $28 you can't go wrong.

Transcend high endurance is what you want. You will void the warranty on Sandisks for using them in a dashcam.

MLC or multi layer cell has two bits of data storage per physical cell. TLC has three per cell. TLC is more dense and therefore cheaper to produce but it can not handle being constantly written to for hours on end.

These ones?

The other is still running in the utility, but I noticed the bytes are different in it.

I know nothing about sd cards. I've read a couple sites talking about different speeds and such but I still really don't understand it all. I was wanting this one which was highly recommended for dash cameras but it's out of stock.

While on Amazon, I found these but I am not sure about them since they are fulfilled by Amazon, and not sold by Amazon.

I guess I have some more reading to do.

[Spytech A119](SpyTec A119 Version 2 Car Dash 60 FPS 1440p Camera) extra 4yr protection $10.08 (Highly recommended), Transend 32gb SD Card
A119 Filter
My Recommends as being the owner of my second one.

1.setting it to record on motion, instead of recording all the time.
2.get the Transcend card 32gb High Endurance Burned Sandisk HD after 8 months of constant recording.
3.pay the extra $10 for the Warranty because chance's are it wont last more then 2yrs

4.Get it with the GPS unit, Win10 has a problem recognizing card formats, So I just remove camera from GPS unit and plug it into my pc it turns into a Mass storage unit. and you can pull the videos off easily. Also makes it easy to update firmware.
5.Format SD in Camera, Then Format SD card every 60 days after that in camera

Also See R/Dashcam

Haha no way I got the A119S too with the gps module that records your location and speed. It records audio very well too.
I bought it last August, worked fine in the winter when it was super cold out because it doesn't use a battery.

For storage I got a Transcend 32GB High Endurance microSD card. From the little research I did they cost a little more than a normal SD card but are better for dash cams and such.

I'm satisfied with the purchase myself for $158 total it was a very fair price and the quality is good enough at 1080 60fps, wide enough to see drivers next to you, catches enough light at night or during snow/rainstorms to see license plates I have no complaints. Would be nice to have one facing out the back now though in case someone rear ends you or something.

The samsung Pro cards are pretty good.

Only buy MicroSD cards from Samsung with "Evo Pro" in their name. Either Evo Pro+ or Pro Select. Only buy from completely reputable sources, there are a lot of counterfeits out there, even on Amazon. Anything else and you're compromising quality, speed and efficiency.

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Select-Memory-MB-MF128DA-AM/dp/B01DOB6YUQ/

I wouldn't recommend using a card above 128gb, they're not stable enough. Remember, the bigger the capacity, the more data you're going to lose when the card fails.

Does [this](Samsung 128GB 95MB/s PRO Select Micro SDXC Memory Card (MB-MF128DA/AM) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DOB6YUQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_luIPyb2CF7GKX) look authentic? Is there a better card available that is U3? There are so many different Samsung cards that advertise similar speeds (Evo, Evo+, Pro)

Read speed wise, most microSD cards are comparable so if that's your only concern, the 200gb SanDisk Ultra is your best bet. If you care at all about write speed, you should look elsewhere. Also, be wary of UHS-II spec cards that claim 150mbps read speed (along with a laughable 20mbps write) that require an adapter to achieve such speeds such as this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00U77V5KU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ep_dp_5BxzybEV9MBMT

If you're looking for the best microSD hands down, it's the Samsung 256gb EVO+. MSRP is $249 and Amazon has it for $139. Quite the bargain. A ton are in the wild considering that many people such as myself chose this as the freebie for purchasing a Note7 (or S7/S7 edge). https://smile.amazon.com/Samsung-256GB-EVO-UHS-I-microSDXC/dp/B01JNGCWHU/ref=sr_1_6?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1483139819&sr=1-6&keywords=evo%2B+256

If you're looking to spend a bit less and can do with half the storage, the Samsung 128gb PRO Select is your next best bet. https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01DOB6YUQ?ref=emc_b_5_t

Both of those cards are rated at 90mbps write and read with real life usage hitting within a couple mbps of that.

No kidding... a MicroSD card costs about twice as much as a comparable full size card...

Perhaps this is what they were referring to?

This or something comparable: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Select-Memory-MB-ME256DA-AM/dp/B01G7L03OS/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1487347197&sr=1-2&keywords=256+gb+micro+sd+card&refinements=p_n_feature_two_browse-bin%3A13203835011

Yes. Be sure to read the negative reviews. Many of the reviews also say write speeds are actually much lower than advertised.

A couple weeks ago I narrowed SD card options down to the Samsung 256GB 95MB/s MicroSDXC EVO Select. Looks overall pretty solid to me. A little pricey, but if it's me, I would pay a little more to make sure I get something actually good.

And, here is a helpful review to help spot fake Samsung SD cards.

Samsung sells a great 256gb card on Amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01G7L03OS/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468557731&sr=8-1&pi=SX200_QL40&keywords=256gb+micro+sd+card&dpPl=1&dpID=41Tu66N6mSL&ref=plSrch

Sandisk 256 GB MicroSD card for $105 at checkout: https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-MicroSDXC-Adapter-SDSQUNI-256G-GN6MA/dp/B01IC0GJKE

wonder if they'll price match that shit in canada for that 36% discount

Do you purposefully downvote everyone who replies to you or is it just a reflex?

>How is having to buy two 128gb cards going to be cheaper than buying one bigger card?

1x 256GB = $200
vs
2x 128GB (what I already have) = $125.50

You're not good at this maths stuff are you? Kind of just like you not being good at Reddiquette

Nowhere near over $200.

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-microSDXC-Adapter-MB-MC256DA-AM/dp/B01JNGCWHU/

that's the one i got for free from Samsung when I preorder the note 7 and its very fast.

I keep seeing these numbers but they are totally wrong.

Micro SD Card - ~$150

Headphones - ~$120

Gear VR - New one with remote is not for sale yet, but given they are giving them away to all pre-orders, market value will be much lower than $129.

Wow, I always have used Samsung EVO with no issues :

Samsung 128GB EVO Plus Class 10... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XFHQGB9?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

But Pro is supposed to be even better so that's strange. I agree with you though, the built in memory is probably more reliable as I've lost data from SD cards in the past.

It's going to be video for sure. I'm looking at 128GB models since i found them on amazon a bit cheaper and I have credit there. However can't tell the difference between...

EDIT: Ah, just spotted to have to pay for shipping making it 29 anyways 🤷🏾‍♂️

Awesome! Thank you! It's on sale at Amazon right now and I'm going to get it

It's a UHS 1 class 3. So the fastest you can go before the brand new UHS 3, which our SB2's do support BTW. But the BaseQi does NOT support UHS 3 at this time so there no reason to spending way more. UHS 1 class 3 is the max with the BaseQi.

I play Skyrim SE with maybe 20 mods, rocket league, GTA 5, Overwatch, and a few more random indie games. I really can't tell the load times are any lower unless I'm really trying to pay attention. They all load maybe 2-3 seconds slower, except for GTA 5 but that takes forever to load on anything.

Honestly for how many people say how bad it is, I'm not seeing it. I mean yeah it's slower than an SSD obviously but it's still way faster than a HDD.

Edit a link to the Micro SD I bought.

Yes, sure :)

Amazon UK link

Link to Samsung product page

Btw, I have done some testing with Atto disk benchmark. The EVO+ 256MB is faster than my Samsung PRO 64MB card. EVO+ writes at ~89MB/s, compared to 79MB/s for the PRO card. Both are UHS 3

I have a Samsung 256 GB EVO Plus Card, formatted with the Official SDXC Formatting Utility from the SD Association (SPEC owners).

The SD card formatting tool is recommended by Nintendo and I believe it to be more robust than the Switch itself for large capacity cards (based on forum and reddit posts).


Note: I would not buy any Samsung SD cards unless they are purchased directly through a 1st party retailer (Amazon:Sold by Amazon, Best Buy, Staples, Walmart:Sold by Walmart, Sams Club, Costco, etc). There are very good (in resemblance) fakes on the market.

In the past maybe but nowadays you wont notice any slowdowns if you buy a fast card like this one

It will also be cheaper and if you really want to store mostly photos and videos I think having removable storage is better overall. Only thing I dont know is the MSRP for 256gb variant but its surely wont be cheaper than microsd card

Any micro SD card should work. They are super cheap now. Here is an example. $6

SanDisk 16GB Ultra microSDHC UHS-I Memory Card with Adapter - 98MB/s, C10, U1, Full HD, A1, Micro SD Card - SDSQUAR-016G-GN6MA https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073K14CVB/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_NH9PDbTHPGWGR

I don't think anyone has told you you need a microSD for the SuperNt. You're thinking of the SD2SNES Pro.

Here you go. Not only is that plenty large enough, it's a microSD that comes with a full-size adapter. It will work for either firmware updates for the SuperNt or for the SD2SNES Pro. If you're buying both, buy two cards.

That's all you need. Really.

I'd go with a good quality SD card, aside from problems caused by an inadequate power supply that seems to be the biggest failure point. I recommend a pair of SansDisk 16 GB cards, one to run and one as a backup. Little is saved by going smaller, slower or cheaper.

Instead of an external USB drive how about a piggyback M.2 drive? I have this one and love it.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01NH2W8NL/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title

Pick a M.2 card size to meet your needs.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B073SBV3XX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title

​

Several folks make a fancy case to fit your Pi and this type drive or you can do as I did and just put it in a dog-bone style case with slightly longer threaded studs.

I bought this one for my Pi3B+:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073K14CVB/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It's both A1 and UHS-I, which guarantees both factors.

​

>So I've got this charger. It's a new charger, cable all looks good and is about 1.5m long.

That looks like the official power supply and I trust that seller not to sell fakes.

✔️ Power OK

>This SD Card

✔️ SD Card OK

>unplugged the fan ... external drive is self-powered via AC

✔️ Peripherals OK

>I haven't overclocked the Pi myself, and a arm_freq gives me 1400.

✔️ Clock probably OK

>I'm on the LibreELEC 9.0.1.

✔️ That seems to be the latest. It's still possible something could be messed up on your install. If a fresh image doesn't resolve the problem, you could try rolling back one version to LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-9.0.0.img.gz.

>I forgot to mention that when you power back up, it has updated the library with the new media!

⚠️ That's odd. Does it completely finish the library update, or just part of it?

>it doesn't crash when the external drive isn't plugged in

⚠️ That seems like a strong indication that the USB drive has something to do with it, but I can't imagine what. It has its own AC power adapter, so it probably isn't pulling voltage down when it spins up. If the drive isn't too full, would you consider reformatting it? I'd be interested to know if it behaves differently after formatting as a different file system, like ext4. You can go a step further and wipe out the whole partition table. I think LibreELEC should have the commands you need in order to format a drive from the terminal/ssh.

I am curious to see who suggested to you that it's a "flat out lie" when stuff like this exists:

• https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Endurance-64GB-Micro-Adapter/dp/B07B9KTLJZ
  
  Made *specifically* for dashcam recording.
  
  ​
  
  Let me ask you this -- is there a dashcam-rated USB stick? even high-endurance for that matter?

Whoops, looks like my adapter is indeed Sandisk but the card I got was actually Samsung. Again, haven’t had these in long enough to speak to longevity, but they’ve been working well in the short term.

Samsung PRO Endurance 64GB Micro SDXC Card with Adapter - 100MB/s U1 (MB-MJ64GA/AM) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B9KTLJZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_T0d4CbG2Z74H7

I have this exact dashcam. Highly recommend.

This is the memory card I have. Don’t buy a 128gb for this dashcam. Doesn’t work very well.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07B9KTLJZ/ref=ya_aw_od_pi

My response is probably tl;dr, lol. But I made the response more detailed because of your continued interest and because I wish I had this info available to me prior to purchasing dashcams.

Have you had any overheating issues? No, never had this issue with the 55's and I used to drive rideshare on average of 30+ hrs per week in the scorching summer months of LA. Although, I don't know for certain if the dashcam 25's had a notification that states "overheating" or something like that; however, my 25's did fail repeatedly and may/may not have been as a result of me not using the original manufacturer charging cables. Having a dashcam from a reputable manufacturer, like I commented before, has its advantages like customer service, firmware updates, replacements, reputation etc.

Example: When my 25's failed, Garmin stiffed me by sending out refurbs and those had the same issues. So, I played my hand by going through the Dept of Consumer Affairs and the District Attorney's office because they would fail mid-drive and so I stated this was due to poor manufacturing and dangerous as it is a distraction and failure to record in case an incident did occur. They contacted Garmin and I got a call from a personal number of a Garmin rep that does damage control. I sent them the failed 25's and after they tested them, they sent me brand new 55's free of charge. Of course, I had to show them proofs of purchase of the 25's.

Do you have lane departure and forward collision turned off because of false readings? I do not have it switched off. Whatever helps keep me focused on the road is helpful. You may think, "well, it takes your focus off the road", but I don't really look at those notifications; I only listen for them. I use them to let me know that something of crucial importance is happening in front of or around me and so I focus more acutely on the road rather than the notifications themselves.

I've never tried other dashcams outide og the Garmin 25 and 55, but, whatever dashcam you are going to go with, make sure you do not plug them into the basic usb charging ports. I've personally had issues with those ports not providing enough power and the dashcams failing as a result. My '14 corolla has only 1 lighter port, but I have 2 dashcams and my phone plugged in and passengers phones when I used to drive rideshare, so I bought this to remedy the issue and haven't had problems since: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B078HMYV7G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I haven't tried hardwiring them into the car's fuse box. Maybe i will, maybe I won't. Don't know as of yet.

Also, dashcams have a high overwrite frequency that lends to reduced life spans/reduced memory of sd cards causing them to suddenly stop recording mid-drive, so go with these and they should remedy that problem: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B9KTLJZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Imo, as driver distractions have increased over the past 5 years with smart phones, in-car apps, etc, dashcams are crucial for everyone. Think about it, as driver accidents go up, insurance companies profits go down as a result of them having to fork over money for repairs, so they are constantly trying to absolve themselves of financial responsibility by concluding that both parties are responsible for collisions, therefore, reducing their expenses as a result of insured parties paying their deductibles. If drivers had video evidence, i.e. dashcams, drivers would instantly save on the cost of their dashcams in case of collisions. Car manufacturers may eventually build dashcams into cars as a result of consumer demand, but they'd face some backlash from insurance companies because of potential collusion. I think I'll post about this just for fun.

Get the Sandisk Extreme! Literally the only card I’ve ever needed and never failed on me.

$100 off for prime day too, neat

There's actually a few different models of the A119, see this link for a comparison: https://support.viofo.com/support/solutions/articles/19000083285-the-difference-between-a119-a119s-and-a119-pro

The main difference is that the A119S model has a better sensor for night time, otherwise the A119/Pro are both solid choices.

I went with the A129 only because it can output 1920 x 1080P for both the front and rear cams.
You can check the specs for the A129 here: https://www.viofo.com/home/79-72-a129-duo-dual-channel-5ghz-wi-fi-full-hd-dash-camera.html

The only thing with Viofo dash cams is that the mobile app is a bit odd. I can only get the live view (on iOS - can't speak for Android) to work when I am connected to a VPN connection for some reason. I have been e-mailing support about this and it would appear they are working on this problem, but I've not heard anything back form them in some time. For playback though the app works fine.

Hope this helps!

Edit: You should also get a good quality SD card. These ones are made for high-endurance applications like dash cams: https://www.amazon.ca/Transcend-Information-Endurance-microSD-TS32GUSDHC10V/dp/B01BDKTQY6/ref=pd_sbs_147_5/147-1825319-3019317?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B01BDKTQY6&pd_rd_r=78ff2d67-5d65-11e9-a945-818b360be682&pd_rd_w=0cTMY&pd_rd_wg=NccmY&pf_rd_p=5dcda75b-8643-4da3-9bb1-5c0233790500&pf_rd_r=TSW2VXJM7GXD357FVRPG&psc=1&refRID=TSW2VXJM7GXD357FVRPG

Not too sure haven't picked one out myself, but my only recommendation is to not cheap out on it.

Edit: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BDKTQY6/ref=ox_sc_mini_detail?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1YAK8U7QV5H1E

I found this one to be pretty competitive with the market offerings and price point.

I've got the THINKWARE TW-F50 and it's been great. But listen to what /u/ChickenPotPi said and get a better SD card. This is the one I have.

I'm a little late to this thread, but I think I'm having the same issue. Sometimes when my A118C starts up, instead of going to the main screen and starting recording, I get this blue popup as if I'm trying to format my SD card. If I select "cancel", it won't record until I restart it.

I'm using a Transcend 32GB High Endurance card. I've formatted the card a few times before. The last time I used h2testw to test the card, it was fine.

edit: my A118C is a Viofo as well.

Not sure if it's the same as /u/Derrits, but I use this one:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01C89GCHU

also, use a high endurance sd card like this one:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BDKTQY6

what is the difference between the Pro and the EVO? i ordered this one

*nevermind there is a comparison down the page. looks like Pro is better so im sure ill be happy with what i ordered

Hey, thanks for the write-up! This is very helpful! I had no idea that there was a difference between SDHC and SDXC, or what the classes meant. I'm looking at the Samsung 128GB SDXC U3 cards, and I see things like Pro+ and Pro Select, and I'm not quite sure what the difference is here, if there even is one. They both seem to be class 10, 95mbps. Any input here would be greatly appreciated!

I was looking at the pro version (U3). [Samsung 128GB] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DOB6YUQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_WT8EybM8XQVNY)

Would this be a superior choice than the select?

Thanks for the info but I was referencing the Pro Select at u3. https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Select-Memory-MB-MF128DA-AM/dp/B01DOB6YUQ/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1484754395&sr=1-2&keywords=samsung+sd+card+select
It's numbers compared to the Pro+ are identical. Are there any other differences between the Pro+ and Pro Select to consider?

If you go up to the Samsung 128 Pro Select then you get 95Mbps read and 90Mbps write and its $75 or almost twice the price of the $40 one I am buying.

> Do you have Rocket League installed on your Switch's internal storage or on the SSD?

I have Rocket League and most my other games installed to my microSD Card; I'm using this one.


> In the cases where you did not spawn into the match immediately, were you experiencing any connection issues prior to the match?


No connection issues that I can recall before or during the match once I was actually in. I don't think I have had any connection issues since switching to ethernet only within the first 2 days of playing the game. When I did have connection issues (Red Network Icon) during those first 2 days, I hadn't experienced this problem.

Not saying we should buy this cause it's expensive as heck, but I am pretty sure this is the card that Nintendo showed during the Treehouse segment. It was definitely a Samsung 256GB something.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01G7L03OS

Considering the Samsung EVO 256gb one is going for $199 on Amazon, something seems off.

a 256GB micro SD card on amazon is 200 dollars

200GB ok?

sandisk ultra @ amazon.ca $101

If you need 256, you could also order from B&H or amazon.com where both are pretty good for shipping to canada. b7h include taxes and customs before shipping. (or at least they try to)

Which is better this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01JNGCWHU/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_pse0xbNK54E8J
Or this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01G7L03OS/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_Cte0xbWR55Y0S

It's like the second link on amazon??

Pretty sure it will be this: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Select-Micro-Memory-256GB/dp/B01G7L03OS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1469754996&sr=8-1&keywords=256gb+micro+sd+card

I don't think the Samsung UFS card is out yet, so most likely this one.

There's going to be a lot of handwaving in this calculation, but the number is going to be huge no matter what. You can currently buy data at about 256 Gigabytes per gram on Amazon.

The solar system, from a mass perspective, may as well just be the sun. Which ends up being about 2x10^30 kg. Assuming you spend about half the energy just converting the mass into microSD cards, we are talking about 10^34 microSD cards. Which is 2.5610^36 Gigabytes

There's no great way to put this number in perspective. The closest I can come is that the NSA Utah Data Center is designed to store data on the order of ExaBytes. In those terms, the Solar system could be made into 2.56 10^27 NSA Datacenters worth of microSD cards. All data ever stored digitally was estimated at 295 Exabytes in 2011. Even if we pad that up to 1000 by 2017, we are still looking at 10^24 times more data than has ever been stored by humans.

But at least there's a small way to appreciate that number without understanding it. 10^24 happens to be the weight of the earth in kilograms. So if you can imagine just how massive the entire planet is, how many shovelfuls it would take to dig away the entire Earth, you're starting to understand just how much data we are talking about.

TL;DR: *2.5610^36 Gigabytes** worth of microSD cards. =)

Has this card ever gone on sale? https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01G7L03OS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&th=1

I really want to switch to digital only but I can't find a good deal on this card. I may settle for 128GB.

https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-MicroSDXC-Adapter-SDSQUNI-256G-GN6MA/dp/B01IC0GJKE/

It'll come down in price further. This SanDisk card was literally the first Google search result, and has free 2 day shipping from Amazon Prime, for $140. I think 256GB will be <$100 by next spring. Granted if you just want memory now, that Samsung card is probably the way to go.

https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-MicroSDXC-Adapter-SDSQUNI-256G-GN6MA/dp/B01IC0GJKE/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1499782031&sr=8-13&keywords=200gb+micro+sd+card

Its currently $223.37 in Canada. So with that discount it would be around $80 off. 200GB cost around $100 so even if 256gb went on sale for $143 (after $80 off) , I'm not sure if that's worth it.

You can do better than a 128GB thumb drive. How about a 512GB SD card or a 256GB MicroSD card?

This should get you through the release of SQ42 and the first drop of the PU.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01IC0GJKE/ref=twister_B011BRUOMO?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I think you have microSD and SD cards confused. This is the highest capacity microSD card out right now. A 512GB prototype is out but will cost $1000. This is just the SD card. A 1TB prototype is out, but will cost $750 or so.

You know those Micro SD's that go into cell phones?

Going with a 256gb card I like my storage. Im hoping somehow we can connect an external hard drive to the switch like you could with the wii.

Sandisk and Samsung are reliable brands.
512GB Micro SD cards are kinda scarce, and very expensive, mind you.
Here's a 256GB one from Samsung

If I format the new one will it remove or delete any of the data already on there?
It's this one:

After a lot more research, realized I need to get microSDXC with U3 with UHS-1. It's pretty rare but seems to be the fastest.

Up to 95MB/s Read and 90MB/s Write speed with Class 10 and U3 compatibility
Great Performance in Action Cameras, DSLRs, High-End Smartphones, and Tablet PCs
Ideal for 4K content, Full HD Video recording and high resolution pictures
Reliability Built to Last - Water, Temperature, X-ray and Magnetic Proof

Or this one:

Anybody tried these in Windows Phones?

https://news.samsung.com/global/samsung-electronics-introduces-the-evo-plus-256gb-microsd-card-with-the-highest-capacity-in-its-class

Dat reference link though. Gotta wonder if this is legit, or just a sales pitch.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01JNGCWHU

Which is nearly the same price as the new gear VR

Still not a ridiculous request.

Just to clarify, is it possible for a micro SD card to have both U3 and UHS-I?

They both have a "U" in it, so I want to know if they are mutually exclusive or mutually inclusive?

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-256GB-microSDXC-MB-MC256DA-AM/dp/B01JNGCWHU/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1488167292&sr=8-8&keywords=256+gb+micro+sd+class+10

This one does not have Class 10. Should I avoid this one?

This is the one that comes with the S8 (at least I am pretty sure). Only one picture that has speed, and the read/write looked like it maxed at 92/85. One review mentioned around mentioned 82/74, another said 85/72.

I saw one review that mentioned this generation had better read/write than older ones, so your opinion might be based on previous generations of the card?

edit: I would test it myself, but I honestly wouldn't trust my SD card hub plugged into a USB hub plugged into my PC to be the best test bench.

For extra storage a fast Micro SD card like a Samsung EVO+ or Evo Select is a good choice. For reference, check other sources for availability and pricing.

There are also small USB SSDs available ...
https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-T5-Portable-SSD-MU-PA250B/dp/B073H552FK/

I have no idea what you're looking at but both Samsung's site and Amazon's product listing list it at 95MB/s read.

200GB and 256GB cards work in the XD - I use this one in my black 32GB unit without issue. It does take a bit longer to boot up with all the data I have on it (full ROMsets, scads of ISOs, a few Android games) but it does work well.

I've been using this SanDisk 128GB card for the last year or so without any issues. My sister got me this Samsung 128GB card for Christmas last year as a backup card, and every time I try and use it I have nothing but problems. The camera (650S-2CH) continuously exclaims, "Check SD card," every five seconds after the first video tries to save.

I've been looking to upgrade to a 256GB card because since I drive 100+ miles per day and can only capture about a weeks' worth of footage. Is this the Samsung card you're talking about? I just don't want to get the wrong one.

>And you've got to start carrying around multiple micro sd cards. I eagerly anticipate the day I lose those.

1. You're not going to lose your MicroSD cards if you keep them in a case, like this.
   
2. With the average size of Switch games, I doubt most people are going to be needing more than 128 GB storage over the life of the console, anyway. In fact, assuming that most people will buy physical cartridges for retail games, storage space is then mainly only used for DLC and indie titles on the eShop.
   
3. I'm just trying to suggest a way to save money. If you want to pay $150 for a 256 GB, by all means. Nothing's stopping you.

Just buy a good one from a recognizable brand:

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-128GB-Class-Adapter-MB-MC128GA/dp/B06XFHQGB9/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?keywords=samsung+128gb+micro+sd+card&qid=1563343558&s=gateway&sprefix=samsung+128gb+&sr=8-5

Just bought a Vita and need to pick a SD card for the v5 SD2VITA adapter.

At this point the choices pretty much boiled down to a 128 GB card from either Samsung or Sandisk for ~20€, a 200 GB Sandisk for 27€ or a 256GB Transcend card for 34€.

Figures alone would make the Transcend the obvious choice, but I haven't used their products yet and I'm kinda vary of Chinese brands. I also don't know much storage is reasonable, I intend to install Vita, PSX and PSP games.

> Amazon

This one? Got the same one myself. Also the fastest micro sd the switch supports.

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-128GB-Adapter-MB-MC128GA-EU/dp/B06XFHQGB9/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1511386725&sr=8-2&keywords=samsung+evo+plus+128gb

Found this micro sd card card among the top results on Amazon.es, it's 128GB and U3, looks a bit too good to be true. Do you think it is fake? I believe this is the seller, despite the high ratings, they seem to be rather new and don't have many ratings. What are your thoughts? Help appreciated.

Buy a microsd... I personally suggest the SanDisk Ultra 128gb microsd that is $20 (I own 5 x 128gb and 1 x 400gb, all are solid and I have never had any issues).


Although I've seen from reviews that for $30 the SanDisk Extreme U3 A2 and Samsung EVO Plus U3 which are a newer versions are faster.

Oh okay! Would you mind looking at these 2 particular ones and tell me if there's any difference or even the same ones were talking about(it's german amazon so I'm sorry for that)

I have ordered this.

And this.

And this.
And finally this.

And I have a warranty on the GoPro that covers the 50% of the camera if stolen the first year. And 3 years of full warranty (accidental and not accidental damages)

I wasn't able to find it in my country. But I found this one: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-128GB-Class-Adapter-MB-MC128GA/dp/B06XFHQGB9/

This is a little more expensive, but I think it's worth the money since it is UHS-III. Should I buy this one?

I've been running one of the 64 Gig models in my Raspberry Pi for several years without any issues and still have a 32 Gig card I bought for my old Galaxy Note 2 many years ago and still running strong. If they will hold up to all the read/writes I have been throwing at them this long I don't see the new 128 Gig ones giving any issues. I just put one in my Switch about a week and a half ago and have been playing on it non stop. Long story short, yes I would recommend the Samsung Evo Select over many other brands.

If you are worried about it supposedly being manufactured in China (even though mine shows made in the Philippines) Their Evo Plus line is supposedly manufactured in Korea and are only 5 bucks more.

Preparing for the release of the Note 8. I like to watch a lot of tv/movies and was looking into the 128GB/256GB micro. The Note 5 was a pain with only 32GB and I never want to deal with that again.

What's the difference between the Samsing EVO^+ & EVO Plus?

I was also looking at this SanDisk Ultra 200GB. 200GB for $100 CAD sounds to good to be true..

Anyways, I'm looking for a micro sd that's reliable, has a high capacity & decent read/write speeds. Any recommendations?

Alguna asi.

Amazon - can I get a refund if fake or doesn't arrive from 3rd party - Samsung SD CARD 128 GB for £5.29?

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B06XFHQGB9/ref=olp_product_details?_encoding=UTF8&me=&th=1

I bought this SD Card and was wondering, if it does come and it's fake, I take it I can get a refund from Amazon? Also, how can they afford to have this for such a low price, is it a mistake or what do you think?

This is the card I purchased, will arrive tomorrow
Hopefully the 100/90mb/s speeds are fast enough and it was the largest one I was comfortable paying for
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B06XFHQGB9/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I would not trust an old mechanical HDD to hold up against road vibrations. SSDs are dirt cheap now. Here's a 128gb microSD card for $20 if you want to do that route.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XFHQGB9/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?tag=slickdeals&ascsubtag=14bad10cf5c711e98e705281c35caba30INT&smid=A3CYTIH19FT9YG&psc=1

I would strongly, strongly recommend you have one. You can get by without one, but given the pressure you'll be under the last thing you need is to worry about this as well. Your iPad Air might suffice though, particularly if you have a wireless keyboard for it (Logitech generally have good ones) but in order for a tablet to be the best it can be it needs to support the Apple Pen and I suspect yours doesn't.

You can get a decent laptop for like £300 or less. HP is currently selling their HP Stream 14-cm0038na for £199 (and includes 1 year of Office 365 and 1TB OneDrive storage) which is a good deal. It's not particularly powerful (4GB RAM, and only 32GB eMMC storage but it has an SD/Micro Sd storage slot, and you can get a 256GB MicroSD for £37.98 on Amazon) but you'll be able to browse the web, write papers etc. on it. Or with the Apple Student Discount you could get a new iPad Air for £454.80 (£55.00 AppleCare+, £80.40 for the Pencil)

The main downside of not having your own is you'll be relying on access to the public ones at the university library, and particularly during exam seasons that's very far from guaranteed. Plus in general it's just really useful to have one - there's all sorts of barrier you might come up against with an iPad, especially if the public library ones are in use.

Thanks for the heads up! is this a good card for the switch? 3 people report that the write speeds are just 10mb/s.

I was eyeing on the EVO+ by Samsung:

I recommend a genuine Samsung card. Both my girlfriend and I have used SanDisk cards in the past and in both cases, the card eventually became corrupt and lost write ability. It started to give me weird error messages, seemed to start eating battery, and then I lost several pictures because it could no longer write to the phone. I don't think they play well with Samsung. Since we started using Samsung, no problems.

I currently have the 256gb card that was part of a promo with the s8. I believe it's this one:

Samsung 256GB EVO Plus Class 10 UHS-I microSDXC U3 with Adapter (MB-MC256GA) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XFS5657/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_sZTDCb2K6ANYB

For affiliate links on amazon, "ref=" is the start of the affiliate link, so it and everything after it is useless.

So your link looks like;

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XFS5657/

And you can delete "ref=psdc_3015433011_t1_B06XFHQGB9"
____

Back to the matter at hand, I wouldnt recommend the one via the link due to it not being sold by Samsung or Amazon. Amazon is rife with fakes and knock off cards so you want to avoid third party sellers whenever possible.

This Samsung EVO Select card is the same capacity and transfer speeds but has a lower minimum write speed, which isnt a huge issue because youre just using it with the Switch and not 4k video or intensive files.

Also, its sold directly from Amazon so you have the best possible recourse if it dosent work as intended.

Would you recommend this MicroSD?

https://smile.amazon.com/Samsung-256GB-microSDXC-Adapter-MB-MC256GA/dp/B06XFS5657/ref=pd_sbs_147_2/145-1242773-1495357?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B06XFS5657&pd_rd_r=73787398-192e-4983-9cdf-3d3cbd91a312&pd_rd_w=2gVqN&pd_rd_wg=NwhvK&pf_rd_p=52b7592c-2dc9-4ac6-84d4-4bda6360045e&pf_rd_r=PQ4988YQPQ5M6B29SWY8&psc=1&refRID=PQ4988YQPQ5M6B29SWY8

So not buy a brand other than SanDisk or Samsung.

Try to get a U3 card, not U1, better loading times.

Any Samsung Evo card will, they’re usually cheaper that the SanDisk.

Check this one out:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Mobile-UK-MicroSD-Adapter/dp/B06XFS5657/ref=mp_s_a_1_15?keywords=micro+sd+card+400&qid=1573362651&sr=8-15

I started with a64gb then got a 200Gb and now am getting a 512Gb during Black Friday. I think you shouldn’t get anything less than 256gb.

I was looking at this listing on Amazon where the picture of the packaging shows 100 MB/s.

Hey thanks for the reply, here are the cards I've tried:

Integral 256GB microSDXC upto 100MB/s V30 UHS-I U3

Samsung 128GB EVO Plus MicroSDXC UHS-I Grade 1 Class 10

Samsung Mobile 256GB 95MB/s Class 10 U3

My original card was the 128, and then I upgraded earlier this year to the Integral 256. However, I noticed things loading MUCH slower than before (although I'm starting to think it was just a placebo...). Having formatted my 128 one I have gone back and redownloaded Smash but it's just as slow... this is why I'm wondering if it's something I've done to my Switch (or I've just forgotten that Smash was always slow to load)

Pi 4 is overkill, a 2 would work fine, but I'd recommend a Pi 3 for $34 cause it is better hardware and will probably last longer. I tried a PiHole on a Nano just for fun but the PiHole GUI preformed abysmally.

and don't cheap out on the SD card, splurge and get a $5 - 16GB SanDisk or something reputable. I have about 9 active Pi's now running 24/7 for years and the only problems I ever have run into are due to corrupted or failed sd cards, because I used old crap laying around my office, or the cheapo ones they put in those Pi bundles you see on amazon. All the other stuff in the bundles is fine (power, usb cables, hdmi adapters, heat sinks cases, etc) but the cards always blow.

For a Pihole all you should need is a 16GB micro SD card(8 would work, but good companies don't seem to make them anymore) a micro usb cable for power, and an ethernet cable to attach it to your router. If you don't have a laptop or something with a micro SD slot, you may need something like this for the setup process(setting up the sd card is done on a computer)

I tried using etcher to flash this to a fresh 16gb sd card and was getting the error "source and destination checksums do not match" after the process completed. It created four partitions on the card and two seem unaccessible. Am I doing something wrong? I'm new to this and I haven't received my PocketGo yet, but I'm trying to get my card prepared.

You could get a raspberry pi 3+ and a 1 - 2TB 2.5 inch hard drive with a hard drive dock that powers via USB.

If the devices in the household will direct play the files, then the raspberry pi will simply serve as a basic NAS and the 1-2TB hard drive should spin up powered from the dock.

For instance:

Raspberry Pi 3+: £32.47 / $42.46

Memory Card for RPi3: £5.84 / $7.64

USB Enclosure for HDD: £7.65 / $10.00

2TB Toshiba 2.5" Drive: £48.19 / $63.03

​

You'd be looking at £94.15 / $123.11 (i know it will cost different in USA but simply using exchange rate conversion).

​

It would also take up less space than a single DVD and would possibly hold 71 REMUX 1080p movies. However, you could go for lower quality "1080p" versions and get alot more on there.

​

I have some spare RPi3's and the above to test this on your behalf :)

​

Edit: However if you arnt too bothered about size, then buying a second hand PC would be significantly better but the above purely factors in the smallest possible form factor!

My guess would be getting a new sd card. The size isn't the problem, but the speed probably is. Look for the circle with a number inside it on the card.

See this chart to see what I'm talking about On top of that, if the card is old and has been used often it may have degraded and not perform as well.

I'd look for at least class 10/UHC1. UHC 3 would probably meet any demands you'd ever need for your SNES. They also have A1 and A2 classes meant for Android phones, but they'd work just as well for your use.

SD cards are super cheap nowadays, and you'll get way more memory with more performance out of it, for a fraction of what you paid for that one I bet.

This one is 16GB A1 for $6…!

Should be good right ?

Pat,

Order Number: #20837 here. I've been trying to reach you unsuccessfully since April 19th. Please reply.

​

Original e-mails:

​

Me:

​

Pat,

Thank you for getting back to me, these did arrive shortly after your email. I am experiencing some issues though. I wasn't able to get one of them working so I removed it and tried the other with some success. I'm able to see the expanded storage and use it some of the time, but more often than not the system will lock up not allowing anything to be done with it. Is this an issue you've run into at all? 

I'm going to try the other one on a different system but if that won't work can I send this back for a replacement? 

Thank you for your time.

​

You:

​

Yeah I apologize, this is something that happens with some cards. I've dumped at least 40 hours into this issue and as far as I can tell it's only an issue with larger cards, especially SDXC cards. I've determined that there's something wrong with the way Hakchi2 prepares the system for SD compatibility. I've been in close talks with the devs and have supplied them with hardware so they can test. They are able to replicate the issue, so it's really a matter of time until we find a solution.

Since you've confirmed you're having the same issue, can I ask when you purchased your system? I'm having a hard time nailing down which systems are affected, whether it's a certain release line or across the board.

Once a solution comes out I will be sending a message to anyone who has bought a Super Storage and notify them to update to the latest version of Hakchi2.

Thank you!

Pat,

This system was just recently purchased. As for the other board, I did install it into another SNES classic and it acts the same as the first. It will flicker a bit but eventually go dark. I did swap the SD board and both are fine, is there any way I can send this back to get a replacement/refund? While one does partially work and as you've stated, is being worked on to overcome the issues you're having, I may not be able to use the other one since it was for a friend.


FYI this is the SDHC card I purchased. It was the smallest one I could find that was a decent price:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073K14CVB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I believe so, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073K14CVB/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

First of all, let me thank you for such a detailed and well thought out post!

So I've got this charger. It's a new charger, cable all looks good and is about 1.5m long.

This SD Card

This cooling/case I have unplugged the fan, it's too loud. I'm looking for a quiet fan, but the heatsinks seem to have been adequate for now, I think.

My external drive is self-powered via AC, although it is not the best drive, it does work. I can access and play all of the media just fine, it's just that last stage of scanning the library where it all goes wrong. I forgot to mention that when you power back up, it has updated the library with the new media!

I'm currently moving a file over to /storage and I will try scanning library without the external drive plugged in to see if it makes a difference.

I did have a fan plugged in, but it was too noisy so it's out for now. I haven't overclocked the Pi myself, and a arm_freq gives me 1400.

I did think about overvolting. It's something to explore if all else fails.

I'm on the LibreELEC 9.0.1.



So, it doesn't crash when the external drive isn't plugged in and scanning the library, but there is only 1 media file to find.

Really? That’s where I bought mine...

Samsung PRO Endurance 64GB Micro SDXC Card with Adapter - 100MB/s U1 (MB-MJ64GA/AM) https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07B9KTLJZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_niPlDbQK9KQH6

That one or the newer model of the same name should work fine. SanDisk and Samsung (their high endurance card here) are pretty trustworthy, unless you get a fake from Amazon :/

Viofo A129 with rear camera is $200 all in with hardwire kit and is one of the better, cheaper cameras out there (Includes CPL filters to reduce glare). You can read license plates with it and it doesn't get as susceptible to heat distortion like other cameras do. Also, get a High Endurance SD Card that can handle high temperatures.

A129: https://smile.amazon.com/All-Inclusive-Channel-Hardwiring-Installation-Included/dp/B07NSBGSJ2/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=a129&qid=1562698410&s=gateway&sr=8-5

SD Card (that I use): https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B9KTLJZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
A

I have the A119V2 and it's pretty great so far - I wish I had actually waited for the A129 to come out because it has Wi-Fi to download videos direct to phone instead of using a computer (i.e. you can show cops the person who hit your car right away or that Biomom was the instigator instead of fiddling with a USB adapter or plugging it into a computer or looking at it on the 1" screen.)

I have the A129 cams hard-wired ( this Dashoto kit is the best deal ). I take the card out and upload to my computer. I need to get a second card so I don't have to bring the computer to the car or leave the cam without a card.

Be sure to get this card.

I'd personally go 64gb since you can record continously for up to 30 hours before overwriting (depending on fps settings). See this link for breakdown on recording times:

https://www.blackvue.com/video-quality-settings-and-recording-time/

I have these two and they are great. I prefer the Samsung though since I believe they make better cards than Sandisk. Also, you will need to use the blackvue windows viewer app to format to FAT32 before using.

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Endurance-64GB-Micro-Adapter/dp/B07B9KTLJZ/

https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Endurance-Monitoring-Adapter-SDSDQQ-064G-G46A/dp/B00V5Q1N1I/

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Endurance-64GB-Micro-Adapter/dp/B07B9KTLJZ

these are probably the best cards currently. they aren't a lot more expensive than other regular cards, but are designed specifically for long term recording. sandisk and transcend cards are not recommended anymore. They might have their own high endurance cards for dash cams too though, but these samsung ones just dropped in price few months ago and are a good deal.

This one is a good deal, make sure you pair it with a 64gb memory card from Samsung.

This is the card I bought. Works flawlessly.


Samsung PRO Endurance 64GB Micro... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B9KTLJZ?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Thanks, I already tossed the card assuming it's not fixable.
Is it only the ones with "high endurance" stamp on it, or are there others, I'll just pick up this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B9KTLJZ/

Samsung or Sandisk?

I went with this

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FCMKK5X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_USRlDbDPHKPEC

I don't plan on using it in any devices other than my phone. I'll be downloading a lot of games, movies, and apps. Apps and games don't always like being moved to SD cards.

This is the microSD card I'm looking to get. It seems to be a great card from what I can see. Not the best speed wise, but pretty darn good: https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-128GB-Extreme-microSD-Adapter/dp/B07FCMKK5X/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?keywords=128gb+micro+sd+card&qid=1562706167&s=gateway&sprefix=128&sr=8-5

This (and a small socket wrench) was literally all I needed:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PVB5L82/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00

It has adapters for most dashcams, and the included wire is thin and long enough to tuck above the windshield and down the left pillar, away from the airbags, then towards the door.

If you open your driver door and look at the side of the dash, you'll see the cover you need to pop off. Use the little spudger that comes with the kit, and it comes right off (pops back in easily later).

Take out the small drawer next to the steering wheel by opening it, squeezing the sides, then pulling. Voila, fusebox. Thread the wire through the opening in the side and into the fusebox area.

There is a yellow 20amp fuse that is linked to the 12v accessories (cigarette lighter, etc). I pulled this one out, plugged in the piggyback fuse from the kit, and put the yellow fuse into the piggyback (the kit comes with instructions on this).

​

In this pic, it's the yellow 20amp fuse in the lower right:

https://cdn.instructables.com/F2N/7LVH/IHP9001J/F2N7LVHIHP9001J.LARGE.jpg

​

Ater doing the piggback, you just need to connect the ground. There are some hex bolts nearby, just unscrew one and attach the ground cable, then tie up the rest of the wire and tuck it away. Pop the cover back on, and you are good!

​

Another tip, you might want to get a heat-resistant memory card if you live somewhere warm. I got one like this: https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-128GB-Extreme-microSD-Adapter/dp/B07FCMKK5X/

Sandisk SD cards are pretty good every time I’ve upgraded it’s just been with a Sandisk and so far they have done me well

Edit: this is the one I had before I upgraded. Had it for over a year with no problems

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FCMKK5X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_yBKiDbDR0ENEE

Is it a regular SanDisk micro SD card? If so you should consider a faster card like the SanDisk Extreme:

"4K UHD Ready

With UHS Speed Class 3 (U3) and Video Speed Class 30 (V30) ratings (3), the SanDisk Extreme microSDXC UHS-3 Card lets you capture uninterrupted 4K UHD and Full HD video (4). This makes it ideal for recording outdoor adventures, weekend trips, or sporting events without skipping frames."

I'm assuming your card is UHS Speed Class 1 (U1) and Video Speed Class 10 (V10), which are the lower levels common on garden variety SanDisk cards. Here's the type I'm talking about on Amazon:

SanDisk 128GB Extreme microSDXC UHS-I Memory Card with Adapter - C10, U3, V30, 4K, A2, Micro SD - SDSQXA1-128G-GN6MA https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FCMKK5X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_x-bDDbBWP4Z6J

SanDisk extreme 128gb micro SD works great and it's only $28 with Amazon Prime. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FCMKK5X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_6NACCb5XKD9NB

How about between these 2, which has the higher write speed? One is A1, the other is A2.

I recently found my old PSP 2001 and am running the latest CFW.

I'm using this exact adapter:
https://www.amazon.com/Funturbo-MagicGate-Playstation-Portable-Handycam/dp/B07F68FCHD/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1549954935&sr=8-1-spons&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=sony+memory+stick+pro+duo+to+micro+sd&psc=1

Along with a 128GB SanDisk Extreme:
https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-128GB-Extreme-microSD-Adapter/dp/B07FCMKK5X/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1549955208&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=SanDisk+128gb&dpPl=1&dpID=41Ob2mex0pL&ref=plSrch

Both have been working flawlessly for me with about 50GBs of ISOs so far and a handful of PSX games.

The only way I transfer data to it is direct. Power off the PSP completely -> remove adapter -> pull card -> insert in decent quality microSD card reader.

MiniUSB works but it's SO SLOW. About 5MBps versus 35MBps.

I don't think so. The red switch branded version is a U3 rated microsd card so it's probably more akin to the Sandisk 128GB Extreme, just without the A2 cert

This switch branded version also has a lifetime warranty (similar to the Sandisk Extreme)

Or is this one better to get ?

https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B07FCMKK5X/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apa_i_j5o4DbHKZKP7X

This is the one I have for the RP1

https://amazon.com/SanDisk-128GB-Extreme-microSD-Adapter/dp/B07FCMKK5X/

Whichever one you get, make sure it's an A1 or A2 if you want to run it as an internal. I had a few Samsung 64GB ones floating around and the all gave me the same "Too slow" error when I tried to format it as internal.

I mistakenly wrote the post as 256GB, actually bought 128GB. I still think it is a good deal.

Still showing up as 19.99 for me. Deal of the day.

My AT&T S9 was upgraded to Androrid Pie two weeks ago. Last week I was on a business trip and took over 500 images while away. Out all of those images, these four were randomly mixed throughout. They are at different times, and even different orientations, but all the exact same file size, so I know there is no chance of recovery. Has anyone seen anything like this before? Since upgrading to Pie I feel like the camera is very laggy, I often would push the shutter button several times until it seemed like it would actually take the picture. I also recall once where I took a picture from the lock screen and it showed the preview in the little circle, but when I tapped it to bring it up full size, it gave me a Toast notification that said something about no pictures have been taken, even though I could see the thumbnail. When I went to the gallery, it was not there, not even a green image in its place. Could this be a bug with the Android Pie update, or an issue with my recently purchased SD card?

Make sure you're using an SD Card that is on their list of approved models. I was having trouble with my H7B freezing, not turning on, and difficulty transferring media, but I had a very high quality SD card so I didn't think that was the issue. Finally dropped some money on a card that was on their list, and now my camera works perfectly. This is the one I got. For $25 bucks it's a pretty cheap way to figure out if that's your problem.

Will I notice much difference between these two cards:

Sandisk Extreme A2 - 128gb, This one is on the list

This one is not on the list, but has worked okay in my gopro hero 6

Thank you for any advice

nah, I already have a 512 GB Samsung micro SD, planning to upgrade to the 1TB SanDisk https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Extreme-microSDXC-Memory-Adapter/dp/B07P9W5HJV

Not yet, but that's the thing. If they can fit 1TB of data on a MicroSD card, why are ram sticks as large as they are, for a fraction of the GBs? And CPU caches... We're still measuring those in Megabytes!

Things can and probably will get a lot smaller soon.

You can buy the nail-sized storage monster directly at the SanDisk online store for $450. The card is also available for Amazon Prime delivery in European countries like Spain, United Kingdom, or Germany. At the time of publication, the card is listed on Amazon’s U.S. site but it says currently unavailable. The price for the Extreme version of the card is about $585 (523 euro) in Europe.

Yes D2 works. No you can not save game saves to the SD card, there is no write function with the device. I have a clone with 128gb SD card and love it. When 1TB SD cards come way down in price I will get one of those. And yes they are totally compatible with the device.

On my phone so sorry for the garbage editing.

I know it's been said that up to 2TB should be fine for the Switch (and I know why this is, I work IT...) But as we all know a lot of things that -should- work or do a certain thing don't always do exactly that. (Last phone had issues with MicroSD cards 512GB and up...)

Just a small confirmation/relief to those interested.

-Why?-

Because I'm lazy, I don't enjoy swapping cards and I enjoy some games to be always ready to go (ex. Smash). I have a physical library of 42+ games but even so I filled my 512GB micro SD card...

Given SD Card:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P9W5HJV/

(While checking it seems to be on sale..., Four days after purchasing it for the $439.99 price (price ATT: $389.99), orz)

Throwaway since I don't fish for (possible) easy karma on my main account.

Obligatory Weltall tax.

The price has to be pretty damn close to be cheaper than this.

Note: Do your research, this is a link to the first result in my search, not an endorsement of the specific item. I bought mine from someone else on Amazon, but the plastic cracked (Functionality was fine).

This with this or this.

I purchased this adapter here, and at the time 16 GB SD cards were $4.16 (I will always remember that specific number). I ended up buying three for my PSP and phone.

Ignoring price, would it be better to use two 16 GB cards simultaneously or one 32 GB card and one empty slot?

Also, is there any difference between the adapter you linked and this one?

Thank you so much!

While it is possible to get 128 gb on a microsd card, those are very expensive per gigabyte. The best memory storage with the smallest size, high capacity, and very low price per gigabyte is a 32 gb microsd card, which amazon sells for 31.98, or about a dollar per gigabyte.
If you want to go up one size, to usb sticks, check out this usb stick. The only thing past the port itself is a metal structure to help you hold on to it.
And going one more size up, to hard drives, you can get a 2tb external hd for just $99. That's just 5 cents per gigabyte.

I have finished installing the arm9loaderHax and upgraded back to 11.

I am thinking about getting a larger micro SD card from amazon. Here are the 2 I am considering 1 - 2

Are there any size/speed concerns I should have?

What will I need to do to make sure the micoSD is ready for my 3ds? Will I need to format it specially? I remember during the hacking process needing to format the SC card a few times, but I think the whole thing is back to nothing special by the end of the hacking guide.

Yes. http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-32GB-microSDHC-Memory-Package/dp/B003WGJYCY

I was going to buy that SD card too, but its still cheaper on Amazon, not on sale. http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-32GB-microSDHC-Memory-Package/dp/B003WGJYCY/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1341340391&sr=8-2&keywords=32+gb+micro+sd+card

My fault. :)

For $34 bucks shipped I say go for it. 32GB is quit a bit of room.

This is also great because microSD cards of 32GB and above have dropped significantly in price lately. When I got my Thunderbolt last year, I think a 32GB was over $100, now it's around $30 or less. I'm convinced it was a pretty good chunk of the $249 on-contract price.


The only caveat would be that if you opt for 64GB, most older phones may not support SDXC.

Thanks, I'll check my memory cards tonight, both are 64 GB. I believe one is a samsung and the other is Kingston. Both are class 10.
I also have this skandisk: http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-MicroSDHC-Adapter-Frustration-Free-Packaging/dp/B009QZH7BU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1409670811&sr=8-1&keywords=micro+sd

Pricey?

****Do any of this at your own risk or hire a professional to do it for you.***

Here are the parts I ordered to put mine together. I'm posting this bc of PMs.

Mobius or [Cheaper Mobius but longer wait from China] (http://www.banggood.com/Mobius-Action-Camera-1080P-HD-Mini-Sports-Camera-Wide-Angle-Edition-p-917817.html) I wanted the Wide Angle Lens for a better shot

Capacitor You don't want the battery sitting in the sun. A capacitor can handle it. So you replace the battery completely with this capacitor

Windshield Mount My mobius came with a mounting bracket that fits on this mount. The mount itself is very small, but the 3M sticker is very strong.

Hardwire Kit When hard wiring this in to the car via fuse box, this knocks the voltage down from 12v to 5v, which is what the camera needs. I used some wire strippers to expose about 5" of the red and black cables. Then stripped about an inch off each cable to expose the actual wire. The red wire goes in to the add-a-circuit mentioned below, then you crimp it closed with pliers (wasn't super easy, I must be weak). You partially unscrew a metal bolt that is attached to the metal car frame as a ground ( I used the one on top of my fuse box).

USB to Mini-USB This connects from the hardwire kit to the camera or 90 degree elbow mentioned next, for a better angle. If you are setting up the auto record when external power is on, which is what you want to do for a dash cam, you need to cut a piece of electrical tape width-wise and cover the two middle pins inside the USB cable. This is because the two middle pins (2 and 3) are data pins. Leaving those exposed makes the camera think its connected to a computer and will only do data transferring. By covering them, it only get power from pins 1 and 4 and doesn't think it's connected to a computer and will actually record.

Right Angle Mini-USB to Mini-USB Adapted This just helped keep the USB cable from sticking out too much (better angle)

Add-a-circuit This is the ATO (bigger fuse), but I ended up using the ATM (Mini) because my car has both and the fuse I wanted to use ended up being a Mini. It'd be best to look through your fuse diagram and find something non-vital (meaning don't tap in to a fuse that controls ABS or airbags, etc) and switchable (meaning it only comes on when the car turns on. You don't want the camera running 24/7), figure out what type of fuse it is, and buy that size. I ended up getting my new add-a-circuit (Littlefuse) from Oreilly auto parts for $6.99 and it came with 3, 4, 7.5, and 10A fuses. Also take note of the amperage (Never use a higher amp fuse than your add-a-circuit supports because the wire gauge may not support it and melt/burn. When adding the circuit, I removed the original fuse from the fuse box, a 10A fuse and put it the first slot(my add-a-circuit supports up to 10A) and for the 2nd slot, I used a 3A fuse because the camera and radar don't draw much. You don't want to use a higher amp fuse than necessary. Also, in my car 2011 JettaSportwagen, the add-a-circuit points down or it doesn't work. Make sure it's plugged in the correct direction or it won't do anything

32GB MicroSD Card Works fine, just make sure to format it through the camera.

Unofficial but awesome Mobius Configuration Tool Use the tooltips(hover over each option) to figure out what each things does. I set mine to autorecord when external power or the button are pushed.


You can find a lot of info here: dashcamtalk.com


To summarize the connections are:

Choose a fuse from your car's fuse diagram (non-essential and switchable), pull it, place it in the correct slot of the add-a-circuit (don't go to higher amps than is supported), plug in a fuse from the add-a-circuit kit in to the other slot to protect your camera (I used a 3A), strip the hardwire kit's cables mentioned above, put the red cable (+) from the hard wire kit in the the red end of the add-a-circuit and crimp it closed, attach the black cable (-) to a screw attached to the metal car frame, tape the two middle pins (2 and 3) in the USB cable with electrical tape, plug the USB in to the female USB on the hardwire kit, run the USB cable from the fuse box around the edges of your cars trim, up by the rearview mirror, attach the right-angle mini-usb adapter, choose where you want to mount the camera (make sure to check using the USB plugged in and camera mounted to the mount, in case it bumps the rearview mirror) (I held it on the windshield about where I thought I wanted it (to behind and to the right of the rearview mirror and took some test footage, watched it on a computer, decided it looked ok, pulled the sticker cover and attached it), clean your windshield with glass cleaner, attach the mount.

SanDisk cards are $23 on amazon http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-MicroSDHC-Memory-Adapter-SDSDQU-032G-AFFP-A/dp/B009QZH7BU/

If it helps at all, this is the exact card I have:

It works perfectly in my Clip Zip.

I previously bought a generic SD card off of eBay for $20, but after 4GB has been used, all the data became corrupt. I got a Kingston, same thing happened (wasn't a genuine one). I returned both, and one day, I saw some genuine Samsung 32GB cards going for $20. They're normally $30, and I picked one up, and it's working well so far. Here are some good ones I found on Amazon:

• [Samsung Micro SD 32GB Class 10]

One thing you should make note of, your phone (I have the same phone) takes a micro sd card, not just an sd card. Don't buy it from verizon at all. They will rip you off. Try newegg or amazon, or if you have a local fry's store. Walmart doesn't have the best prices either. And since it's just for a phone, the brand and speed really doesn't matter all that much. Just make sure to pick one that has decent reviews and a decent price. You should be able to pick up a 32GB or so for $30 or less.

Here is the one I use.

I got a $20 32GB Micro SD card to go with it to give me a little over 8 hours of footage at 720p but the camera can also record in 1280p.

Here is some video I shot with it yesterday. (I was driving into the sun for the first half so the exposure is pretty bad.)

Yup, that one. Reviews are pretty crappy but it's mainly because people aren't buying from a reputable seller. A lot of them are ending up with fakes and that's why some complain about having their dash cam die within 2-3 months. Getting the proper memory card is crucial as well. I'm using this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009QZH7BU/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If you live in more colder/hotter areas, there's also the G1W-C. I can't tell you much about that one as my G1W is still holding up nicely under the Cali sun.

Also, is this a decent replacement? I wasn't able to find anything about a class 4 causing fires, but I would be willing to upgrade if it will work better.

Yeah, I know it is about 4 years old, which is bizarre. Like /u/0110111001101111 points out though, they don't even make 2TB cards yet, and 256GB is like $300 (that's not micro though). Largest micro I could find is 128, and it's $100.

Maybe this is your solution?

SanDisk just released a 128GB card, effectively doubling your available storage: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IIJ6W4S/



Kinda pricey but having more space is never a bad thing I guess.

I got a digital camera when I turned 13 in 2004. I used the rest of my birthday money, which was $130, to buy a 512MB SD card. Now you can get a 128GB Micro SD card for almost the same price. That's 250 times more memory for the same price in 10 years. And it can fit on the tip of your finger! It's amazing.

I'm tempted to get one of the 128GB ones

http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-MicroSDXC-Memory-Adapter/dp/B00IIJ6W4S/ref=lp_3015433011_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1404494531&sr=1-3

Problem is they're a bit expensive now and they're not as fast as the lower capacity ones.

The speed on the cards is indicated by the littler number on it. So the one you linked has a 1 on it which is the lowest which I wouldn't get especially for recording such high video.

This one is class 10 and pretty good price. http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-MicroSDXC-Memory-Adapter/dp/B00IIJ6W4S/ref=lp_3015433011_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1404494531&sr=1-3

Amazon.

They have 128 GB micro sd cards as well if you didn't know.

I'm using a SanDisk I got with my nvidia shield tablet. Nothing special, here it is below (though 128gb version), I think it was maybe $60 when I got it? Forget the actual price, but around there.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IIJ6W4S?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage

I'm using it as removable storage. Photos/video, and Google play music songs. I had a bad experience with adoptable storage, and even with adoptable storage on marshmallow, some apps will still only save to the phone memory regardless. So removable storage for fewer headaches for me!

Got this SD card, its super fast especially when recording 4k videos. Internal memory is about 10/MB/sec faster than the speeds of this SD card

Edit: here's an example of read and write speeds chart for some flagship devices, compare that to 90 read and 80 write MB/sec of the SD card

You won't regret the transition! My mom was a die hard ios user due to its simplicity but the moment she began to use android she stuck due to the range of customizable actions. I heard that having a transfer rate of 48mbs is already enough but I ordered the 32gb version of this one ;)

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IVPU88U/ref=twister_B00IYOCBMO

I transfer lots of files since I usually end up with a custom rom and download movies and music on my phone. Having the ability to have 2 browsers open, one with youtube and the other with youtube downloader simultaneously really makes it a breeze downloading music haha.

It was this one. I guess my Note 4 won't get here until Friday when Best Buy receives the pre-orders. I did go ahead and order two extra batteries and external charging enclosures with that 50% off promo code.

The card you linked is a full size SD card. The 3+ black can only use a micro SD. The micro SD version of that card is $59.99: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Class-Adapter-MB-MG64DA-AM/dp/B00IVPU88U

If the micro SD version was only $35.99 then it would definitely be worth it!

This is the one I use Samsung Pro:

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Class-Adapter-MB-MG64DA-AM/dp/B00IVPU88U/

And these are other brands at similar speeds.

That being said 1080@30 isn't that crazy in bitrate. Are you using protune? It could very well be a dud card because 1080@30 should be well within the range of the card you linked

I use a 64gb Samsung Pro on my rooted gpe/dev edition. I don't do anything that would warrant the extra speed, it was just an impulse buy. It plays and writes fine.

You're referencing the D5833, which is the asian market version. This model is a D5803. You're going to want a D5803 for full LTE compatibility in the US. The US version bottoms out at $510, at best. Since there is still a wait list, they bounce between $510 and $600 based on availability. Also, even if I ditch all the accessories, the two-year warranty can only be purchased from Sony direct.

If you get a lower quality, non-brand microSD card, then sure I suppose. Here is the card that this phone comes with (it's dropped $4.95 since my purchase...) -- http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IVPU88U/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Ah, I went for velocity instead of mass, but I'm using it in a RPi.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IVPU88U/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 has worked very well for me.

I bought a 128gb Samsung SD and whenever I had it in the tablet, turning on the screen took a few seconds longer. I looked this problem up and apparently its only for cards larger than 64gb.

Also, I was advised to only use the stock charger so as not mix up the voltages or something and my complaint is that the stock charger cable is short (a little under 2 feet).

Other than that, I haven't encountered any issues, but you should remember that I haven't used it for anything other than MXPlayer/Twitch.

EDIT: Also, the "cast screen" function works perfectly, but I elected to use Bubble UPnP because my TV didn't stretch the "cast screen" picture.

Also, there are no physical buttons so sometimes I would accidentally screen shot with my left hand and that was annoying.

i paired one of these:

the write performance cant compare to a PCIe SSD, but the read is terrific. i highly recommend it.

I use this one. Fairly cheap for the size. Especially since it's a Samsung, not a garbage off-brand.

I prefer SanDisk Ultra https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-microSDXC-Standard-Packaging-SDSQUNC-064G-GN6MA/dp/B010Q57S62/ref=zg_bs_3015433011_1?_encoding=UTF8&refRID=EMB8XFRBVS080VQV20JP&th=1

I've have this Samsung 128GB micro SD for over a year now in my 32GB MXPE. It's unmerged and I keep all my videos, podcast, pictures, and music on it. I currently have about 50GB of videos. No problems so far, but I backup my data every 2 months or so.

First of all, make sure to double check that none of your pre-existing devices have one. If not, I go by three pillars when finding a MicroSD: Price, Capacity, and Brand. Best capacity for the least amount of money- but with a trustworthy brand like Samsung or SanDisk and good reviews. I personally think This one looks pretty good.

Don't get me wrong, I'm actually a big proponent for large and fast internal storage. I'm just saying that 128GB as an option doesn't come cheap and a microSD slot remains a far more affordable alternative. I would've preferred to see 64GB as the base model with the move away from expandable storage but I'm not surprised they didn't.

But yeah, for half the money you could throw one of these into a One M9 and have 160GB total. There are faster cards for around $5 more that do sequential reads faster than a Nexus 5 or S4. They're improving quite a bit.

Any card is probably fast enough, it just depends on how long are you willing to wait :D But seriously, something like this SDCARD is probably one of the best cards you could have (that was just a quick search, I am not saying that that one card is the chosen one). But of course, there are a lot of sdcards you can buy. Just search for "UHS U3" microsd.

I just tried a 64gb PNY card, and it was recognized.
Link to the card: http://www.amazon.com/PNY-Turbo-Performance-MicroSDXC-P-SDUX64U390G-GE/dp/B00W77C1QU?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00

I went with this here. Lots recommended it.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00W77C1QU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_1iAnxbKBDNZJX

I was looking at this one, specifically for the lifetime warranty:
http://www.amazon.com/PNY-Turbo-Performance-MicroSDXC-P-SDUX64U390G-GE/dp/B00W77C1QU?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

I have a few of these PNY MicroSD cards They're cheaper than the SanDisk Extreme and my speed tests on them get 92Mb/s read and 62Mb/s write. Which is just enough for the Phantom's bitrate.

I Personally just ordered this one from PNY 64gb for the right price, and boasts 90mb/s speeds. I chose PNY because it seems sd card counterfeiters are targeting sandisk/samsung the most. I just dont want to deal with the hassle of a fake sd card.

Stick to Amazon, and check best buy since they price match amazon if you want instant satisfaction on your purchases.

I recommended the yellow bobber for any water excursions you take, and a nice selfie stick (lots of great brands). I use the selfiie stick for snowboarding mostly.

This is a great SD Card

Most of the official GoPro stuff is going to be better quality than the random rip-off 3rd party brands. You do get what you pay for.

Whatever you do, don't get this card: http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-microSDXC-Standard-Packaging-SDSQUNC-064G-GN6MA/dp/B010Q588D4/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1451946352&sr=1-1&keywords=sandisk+microsd

It would get stuck at 30% whenever I would try to format it on my phone. Apparently it's a common issue that other people are having and it seems to be with SanDisk cards.

I ended up returning it and getting this card instead, no issues so far: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00W77C1QU?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00

I have the PNY U3 Turbo Performance 64GB (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00W77C1QU/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_VDFzwbZ4KPW6A). It works great and also records 4k without issues. Another one to look at would be the Samsung Pro which is better in my opinion.

That sounds like a lot of money. I'm using this on a few Android devices (including the Nvidia Shield TV).

Are they class 10 UHS-1 U1? I had the same problem with a 64GB card and had to go to a faster U3 rated card. Here is the card I ended up buying, which works great in my P3S.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00W77C1QU/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I use this and the phone feels sluggish, would a higher read and write speed card do any better?

If you want one with faster read and write speeds you can grab the PNY Turbo for $5 more http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00W77C1QU/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1458974101&sr=8-1&pi=SX200_QL40&keywords=pny+64gb+micro+sd&dpPl=1&dpID=41eMpIqoIqL&ref=plSrch

Actually I am back to that I am going to try Lollipop with foldermount to compare results.. just realized the performance hit from using adoptable storage is huge! The 64 GB card I am using when set to adoptable storage increases the boot time of the K1, by at least 30 seconds (did not time it) I bench marked the 64 GB card when adoptable 3 times, and it averaged 40 MB/s read 15 MB/s write, and then formatted back to portable and rebooted. Quick boot time again and benchmarks at (3 times again I ran it) at 80 MB/s read and 65 MB/s

I was using this micro sd card: http://amzn.com/B00W77C1QU

This card is amazingly fast on both read + write on anything else I try it on also..

This is the one I purchased, I don't believe it to be fake

Windows 10 takes up 7gb out of 32gb. Let's round it up to 10gb. Considering OP doesn't play games, 22gb is more than enough space. In addition, you have MicroSDXC. Need more space? How about 128gb more space for $30.

How much space to need to do what the OP wants to do - which is mostly use Internet?

> Your best bet is to buy a refurbished previous generation business laptop.

I don't know why you're telling someone to buy used, old, crappy (not SSD) technology for about the same price (or higher) compared to a brand new and faster machine. SSD on a used laptop for less than $230? Good luck. OP has a tight budget - they can't afford it so they're stuck with HDD, a used one at that.

> Taken care of those business laptops will last 10+ years with incremental battery upgrades.

I manage about 30 of these right now and we're replacing all these with new SSD models because HDDs last 4 years. Battery isn't the problem - it's the wear and tear. If they're business laptops then businesses don't generally care about maintaining them since it's cheaper to replace them once depreciation benefits wear off. So you're stuck with an old, used, scuffed, slow, more expensive piece of equipment with no hint of a warranty and likely have a terrible battery (which would cost $50+)... or get something that's brand new, fast, cheap, expandable storage, under warranty for less.

This short video will explain the pitfalls encountered if trying to catch a vandal in the act using a dashcam.
http://www.techmoan.com/blog/2013/6/23/q-which-car-camera-is-best-for-catching-a-vandal-in-the-act.html


However, I understand that you want to do something so I'm going to suggest the cheapest method I can think of which may or may not work, but you might get lucky.


I would get A118C dashcam, a 128GB memory card, and a portable powerbank.


For the memory card I suggest this: https://www.amazon.com/PNY-128GB-MicroSDXC-Memory-P-SDUX128U160G-GE/dp/B00W77C1W4/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1466817385&sr=1-2&keywords=128gb+micro+sd


You will need to format the card to fat32 using the free utility such as this http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/guiformat.exe and the card will give you approximately 18hrs of continuous recording. Do NOT format the card with the native computer program.


For the powerbank you could get something like this: https://www.amazon.com/PNY-10400mAh-PowerPack-Portable-Rechargeable-P-B-10400-24-S02-RB/dp/B014M91EOA/ref=sr_1_40?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1466817826&sr=1-40&keywords=powerbank


Here's a link to a A118C if you need it: https://www.amazon.com/Spy-Tec-A118-C-Capacitor-Dashboard/dp/B00SK8B47W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1466818121&sr=8-1&keywords=a118c+dash+cam


Set the dashcam up where you think it most appropriate, run the power cable covertly to the powerbank which you are going to hide somewhere (glove box, under dash, under seat, etc) turn it on when you park the car and off the next morning. Remember to recharge the powerbank when it's getting low, probably every few days. Good luck.

Every single time I got memory from the Chinese, they will usually sell like 2gb cards marked as 128gb. Honestly external storage is not nearly as much as it used to be. You can get a nice micro sd card off Amazon for not too much. PNY is a good brand, $30 if you are in the US. (Two years ago I paid 50$ for a micro sd card. Also even if you do find a cheap one from China, the write speed & life span may not go that far. Hope, I helped. Cheers!

You may not want this, but this 128GB one is selling for 35 bucks right now. May not be as good as the Samsung one though:

I'm doing some research before purchasing it and i saw this green PNY memory but be aware, that only the 32gb and 62gb are UHS-3, it wont hurt your SD card Performance in the Shield just a comment about a misleading product. Here is the amazon link to the model im talking about

Came one day early. Popped in the card after the update. And it works. 118gb after format. :)

PNY 128

I have this one:

I think I paid like $28. Works flawlessly. The write speeds aren't as fast as the super high end ones but its not like we're shooting 4k 60fps video so you won't run into any issues.

I brought this one on sale. And it was working with my phone before..

One for 30

Using this have had no issues with it what so ever.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00W77C1W4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Oh I should have said I'm a massive fan of removable storage, so I'm glad they brought that back. It's absurd how much on-board storage is priced at, when you can get some like this 128 GB card for ~$30-40 US (I payed $30 for that but that one's gone up since then, Microcenter has their brand for $33 US atm.

I started with a 32gb card for my n3DS because I thought the 128 was giving me issues when downgrading. I followed this guide

https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-transfer-emunand-to-another-sd-card-working-on-new3ds.383684/

Was a little more than I wanted to pay, but I figure I wont need a new one for a while. Still not sure on my power supply, will test out a couple I have.

Most of those "tiny" USB 3.0 drives are just a cheap SDXC card and the performance is horrid. You're better off with the adapter, plus a good SDXC card like the Samsung Pro or the Sandisk Extreme.

I would recommend buying uhs-1 card such as SanDisk Extreme

SanDisk Extreme MicroSDXC UHS-1 Card. I've had it for over three years now, using it as expandable storage on my phone.

I didn't know they weared out fast. All of my music and podcasts download straight to it daily, so that probably didn't help.

This is the card I bought...

I'm sorry for not mentioning this earlier in my OP. I use a SanDisk Extreme 64GB Class 10 U3 as considered by GoPro.

some sales on properly quick chips as well on .ca

SanDisk UHS-1/Class 10 = $25.99 on Amazon
SanDisk UHS-3/Class 10 = $34.84 on Amazon

UHS-3 > UHS-1

This card doesn't seem to be on GoPro's recommend list, if that's important to you.

For an option that GoPro recommends.

I purchased this one:

SanDisk Extreme 64GB MicroSDXC UHS-1 Card with Adapter (SDSQXNE-064G-GN6MA)

In the recommended list they have

SanDisk Extreme UHS-I 64GB (SDSDQXL-064G-A46A - 64GB) or (SDSQXNE-064G-AN6MA)

And the one from amazon has a code of SDSQXNE-064G-GN6MA

I didn't think that the G vs the A in "ANG6MA" mattered because the people giving feedback about the card said it worked great. Also, when I contacted GoPro support, they also confirmed that it was the right SD card.

$29 on Amazon, 64gb https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B013CP5IWO/ref=ya_aw_oh_bia_dp?ie=UTF8&psc=1

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013CP5IWO?keywords=sandisk%20extreme&qid=1458013594&ref_=sr_1_2&s=electronics&sr=1-2

Still kinda cheap.

I ordered this one. SanDisk Extreme 64GB

Not quite as fast as some of the others out there but still gets great speeds for the price (~80MB/s reads and ~75MB/s writes).

From what I'm reading Sandisk Ultra isn't recommended but Transcend High Endurance are. https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01BDKTQY6/?sa-no-redirect=1

Every card I’ve purchased (2x Samsung EVO, 2x SanDisk Ultra, 2x Transcend Premium) has failed in a year or less except the Transcend High Endurance. Get the lower capacity if money’s tight, less footage is better than no footage due to card error.

The transcend high endurance 64GB is a bit more than the Sandisk you linked. $54 shipped BNIB. Here is a link for the 32GB that I am selling

$21.79 BNIB shipped

The high endurance cards vary in price.

Why not get 5 of these instead?

time for this. ..but srsly, what's the problem here? Class 6 is a bit on the slower side. and if capacity is the problem there's 64gb cards, etc.

You can always "upgrade" your space with a Nifty Drive + SD Card. I'm planning to do this eventually to my rMBP to store movies/tv on.

I do plan to get a Micro SD card. I'm planning on buying this one because of the faster read/write speeds.

I got a decent amount of responses when I cross-posted this thread, look here.

This thread told me for sure that USB-OTG is possible with a USB 2.0 to Ethernet adapter. However, USB 3.0 to Ethernet seems like it isn't possible at the moment. So while you can connect, you'll need an adapter from MicroUSB to USB, like this one, and then you'll need a USB to Ethernet adapter, such as this popular one.

My only concern about it is speed - I'm hazy on the max speeds you would receive via this method.

I have a 64GB Samsung Pro

SD cards are not a replacement for phone memory.

Top of the line $100 microSD card from Samsung has 95MB/s read and 90MB/s write speeds. Average cards have maybe 20MB/s write and 80MB/s read.

Iphone 7 128GB write speed: 350MB/s. Read speed 960MB/s.

These are good alternatives:

For those who want to go all digital. The 256g is roughly $45 less today for Prime day. ($105. It's usually around $150)

I don't think that's going to be enough storage for the Switch long term. I got this one for my 3DS where games are smaller and it's great, but I think the 256 GB one is better in the long run. It's on sale too for $119.99 ($80 off).

Samsung 256GB EVO Plus Class 10 UHS-I microSDXC U3 with Adapter (MB-MC256GA)

I assume you're playing on an older iPhone? I can't recall an Android without expandable storage. 16GB SD cards are literally under $10, but if you're on an iPhone that sucks man, looks like time for an upgrade

Hi there,

Is the 128gb Sandisk Extreme memory card supported by the H7B? I've had a look and only the 32GB and 64GB are detailed on the gopro website.

​

Cheers

The technology is there, it's just a matter of time at the moment. The cards (running at the right speeds) in those ranges aren't far off the market. Samsung have 256GB cards on the market at the moment. Microdia released a 512GB U3 micro sd card a year or so back as well, those they were well expensive.

I'd again ask though, how much did you think the internal memory should be?

You also seem to be overestimating the size of the games a bit. Even breath of the Wild is only in that ~15 GB (I think it's actually a bit less than that) range.

OG Vive with TPCast here too!

You'll need to use "Open TP Cast" to have wireless Mic functionality.

It's what I use and more importantly it also has huge performance benefits over the normal TPCast software.



Basic Guide:

1.) Buy a $5.79 16GB Class 10 Micro SD card from Amazon then download and load the latest TPCast software onto it. Also, install the latest OpenTPCast Drivers from the same site.

2.) Use a small Phillip's head screwdriver to quickly take apart the receiver from your TPCast and swap the SDCard out for your newly loaded one. (Keep your old MicroSD, in case you ever need to go back)

3.) Download VirtualHere and pay the one time $25 for your OpenTPCast key(which you will get in email afterward). Open VirtualHere and paste the key you bought into it.

4.) From now on (to start VR) you just start "VirtualHere", wait about 5 seconds until it connects to your TPCast and shows your Vive and controllers "In Use"(if they dont show "in use" you can right click each one and click "Use"). Start SteamVR and play as normal. ("VirtualHere" just takes the place of your old "TPCast" software which connects to the TPCast/OpenTPCast prior to starting SteamVR).



Benefits:

1. Noticeably better framerate and also no "gray screen" moments during gameplay (which sometimes you may get on the normal TPCast).
   
   
2. Mic works flawlessly!
   
   Note: Front facing camera still doesn't work, as normal with TPCast
   
   
   
   P.S. Do NOT "Backup and Flash" the original SD Card from your TP Cast! (Save your old one which can be swapped back into it at any time.) The software on your original Mirco SD is specific to your device and can NOT be retrieved/re-loaded to go back.
   
   The new $5 Class 10 16GB Micro SD is a cheap zero-risk choice and also performs better giving you a better experience, no slow-down of framerate and gets rid of "grayscreens" or loss-signal crashes forever.
   
   
   
   Here's the full guide I used which will walk you through it in no time at all.
   
   If you have any questions, shoot me a message and I'll help walk you through it.

Get a U3 card like this. Sure you may not need the speed but it will future proof the card for future use if you plan on recording in 4k or higher.

no got it straight from samsung

so are you responsible for the huge-ass SSR on JWST that can't even hold a terabyte?

what the heck!?! they have 1TB micro SDs now...

https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Extreme-microSD-UHS-I-Adapter/dp/B07P9W5HJV?th=1

It has 32 gigs of internal storage. Breathe of the Wild should take up 40% of that.

The console is absolutely incredibly shit.

EDIT: Apparently it's upgradable. So be sure to order a microSD to make the console usable, which is frankly ridiculous.

EDIT2: First 256 gig card I could find is 200$. So 200 more dollars in order to bring the console's storage up to a bit over half of what the cheapest Xbox one S has. This console is a joke.
