[Q] Micro SD card Question - Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the SM-T210RZWYXAR version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 and I have 2 questions.
1) What is the max amount of storage that can be used? On one site is says 32GB on another it says 64GB
2) What is the MAX read and write speed of the micro SD card port?

1. SM-T210R supports 64 GB sd cards.
2. Depends on the class of the sd card.
class 2 cards are 2MB/s, standard video recording,
class 4 cards are 4MB/s, Hi-Def (720p-1080p/1080i)
class 6 cards are 6 MB/s, basically the same specs as class 4 but faster.
class 10 cards 10MB/s with full Full 1080p and high speed data bus.

Class 4 - 16GB Micro SDHC Card now in UK

OK, 7dayshop are selling the following for £38.99 in the UK
Micro SD High Capacity (MICROSD-HC) Memory Card - 16GB Class 4 (118x) - Dane-Elec
Will it make any difference to the X1 if its a class 2 card or a class 4 card?
The classes defines the writingspeed of a memory card. A class 2 Card can write 2 MB, class 4 4MB/second. The real writing speed is much different. My 16GB Memorycard (Class2) is much faster than my 8GB Card (Class 4).

Yeah that true i have reliaze that after i have already buy a dan-elec MicroSd of 4Gb and it is slower in writing than my old one MicroSD 8Gb Sandisk (OEM with my xperia)...
So i recommend you to buy a MicroSD Sandisk this brand is faster and more quality...
And if sonyericsson choose it..Is for something isn' t it?
Also Kingston are good but Dan-Elec or Duracell (Are the same)
Are the worst i think....
Very slow.............
brand makes a difference.
I have a 16G sandisk class 2, althoguh I did not do any benchmarking, it doesnt feel any slower than my previous 8G sandisk class 4 card.
You won't see a difference if you don't do continuous photo shooting or copy big files from your desktop to your card anyway. I say for the purpose of the card (i.e. used in mobile devices) a class 2 is sufficient but I would still recommend getting from reliable brand like sandisk.

SD card speeds?

What speeds should I be getting?
I bought a sandisk 16gb off Ebay. Figured it was safe being "sandisk" and all.
I am getting about:
6mb/s write
19mb/s read
Saw someone pose they got 3 write and 130 read...
can this also be ROM related? They were on magnolia I am on CM7.
It sounds like a reasonable number, I have an older SD card that writes at about 3.5mB/s.
Sounds like a standard Class 2 memory card. Check your uSD card, does it have a little number inside of a circle? If it doesn't it's more than likely a class 2 card.
They categorize most flash-based memory cards by "class" now, the higher the class, the faster the read/write speeds. They have them in multiples of 2's. I have a class 6 8GB microSD from Transcend that I use for my Nook Color and I get on average around 11.5MB/s write speed.
Definitely atleast a class 4. Class 4 is 4Mb/s read speed. The write speed is irrelevant.
I have a class 4 Sandisk as well and it reads at just over 6Mb/s. Not sure on write speed. It was definitely faster than 19Mb/s though. Did you test it using h2test to make sure its a legit card?

[Q] Which SD Card to go with out of these 2?

Hi all,
I've currently been using a 16GB Sandisk Class 4 MicroSD in my Note, and that's filling up, and I'm planning to switch to a 32GB card.
BUT, there's 2 I'm stuck against choosing between.
This one is a 32GB Class 4 card by SanDisk:

But this one is a 32GB Class 10 card by Play.com:
http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/4-/21619964/0/Play-com-32GB-Micro-SD-SDHC-Memory-Card-Class-10/ListingDetails.html?searchtype=allproducts&searchSource=1&searchfilters=ae63{Play.com}+&urlrefer=search
Which should I go for?
If you want more speed: Class 10
If you want more money: Class 4
I used a 32gb class 10 previously and now the 64gb SanDisk class 6.
While I did like the speed and filling up the new one took it's time, I do prefer volume over speed.
The 64gb gives me so few worries over space, and once my "permanent" media was on it I am in gb-heaven.
But then, to me the space was the priority.
If you have the need for speed, a fast 32 may fit you better, or you can wait until 64 gets fast.
Also keep in mind that you can buy a fast 32, a 2 dollar usb otg cable on Amazon and a big thumb drive for less than the price of a 64. But that is a clunky solution.
I prefer the big card.

Why dont yo go for a 32 GB Sandisk Ultra (Class 6) Memory card. It has a good performance.
If in any case you need to buy a class 10 card go for transcend/kingston or even Samsung
i suggest you to buy patriot class 10

[Q] MicroSDHC

I have 8 class 8GB microsdhc card and works fine. No problems. Writing speed is aprox. 4,2 MB/s if it helps.
I have 8GB class 6 microsdhc and it works fine.
I had the same question...but I directly approached the Samsung guys...they told me that for sg3 microsdhc cards up to class 6 are supported. Above classes will work but not at their optimal speed.
.: cheers:.

microSD speed 4 Tab S

what is the speed of Tab S card slot?
I'm going to buy a microSD card and I don't know what speed should I take:
30, 50, 80 or 90 MB/s?
I don't care how fast I can copy files from PC. I just wonder what is the maximum speed of read/write by Tab S?
I dont unfortunatley have technical speeds of how quick it copies but i found that mine. Could happily copy 2GB files from internal to my UHS1 64GB sd card from samsung pretty quickly, within 1 minute.
So it is about 33MB/s. Class 10 is not enough.
So minimum Sandisk extreme?
http://www.sandisk.com/products/memory-cards/microsd/
I guess depends if you can get a UHS-2 or 3 that a tab s can make the most of? Just used A1 SD Bench and got 30 MB/s write and 13MB/s read (edit. Other way round). It is a UHS-1 samsung micro sd card. Possibly a samsung EVO or SanDisk extreme.
I have the Lexar 64gb 600x micro sdxc class 10 UHS-I 90mb/s, I have had it about 4 months now and it was previously in my Samsung Galaxy S4. I have never met transfer speeds as fast on any other microsd I have used before, nor have I been met with such stability. I have one of these cards in my Samsung Galaxy Tab S for storing any media (books, music and movies) and haven't had any issues still. I also have another in my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 I which I play music from every single day.
As I said, I have had the card for a few months now, and I have used it in 3 different devices, all with outstanding performance. The origin SanDisk microsd cards I purchase (2x 32Gb micro sdhc ultra) I had to return 3 times before I had a reasonably stable working product. I am not dissing SanDisk nor promoting Lexar. I just want to share the experiences I have had recently.
I hope this helps. Message me if anyone has a question.

Can you make a speed test in A1 SD Bench and post results (Tab S)?
A1 SD test results.
The first picture is the test results from my lexar 64gb sdxc 600x UHS-I
The second picture is a comparison using SanDisk Ultra 32gb sdhc.
Testing device is the Samsung Galaxy Tab S (SM-T700).
