limit on size of micro SD card - Planet Gemini PDA Questions & Answers

Will the Gemini support a 512GB microSD card? A 256GB one? Under Debian?

I have a Sandisk 200GB SDXC in mine, not exactly what you asked but maybe close enough to answer.

Samsung 64GB Class 10 Micro SD SDXC UHS-1 Grade 1 Pro Memory Card 70MB/s.
Expensive but worth every single cent.
The 64GB UHS-1 from Samsung is the best memory card I have every had.
Greetings from Germany
I purchased a Sandisk Ultra Class 10 on Amazon. It works great - no problems at all.
(seems I'm a "can't post links yet" noob still) The item number is B007WTAJTO
I would recommend purchasing from a reputable vendor, as in "Ships from and sold by Amazon.com". I had a Amazon seller send me a Class 2 unbranded card with a SD reader when I ordered a Class 4 Sandisk card with microSD reader. Very annoying and I suspect intentional.
Ernthelfer, have you done any speed testing on your Samsung card?
Thanks for the suggestions fellas appreciate that. :good:
I also have the Sandisk 64GB. I'm wondering HOW to test the speed and for bad blocks using my unrooted GN 10.1.(Can't use my PC for testing.)

Thanks. I tried this already. It didn't work; I can't remember the reason. Also tried the SD Tools app with no luck.
Has anyone with an unrooted GN 10.1 had any luck with these apps? Thanks.

for some reason you can't buy this micro sd card in the uk that is why i will have to buy a sandisk 64gb instead which is not ideal but it's the best i am gonna get, i can get a samsung 32gb class 6 though i might go for that as i like samsung micro sd cards.

Working 64GB MicroSD card

Hi, Has anyone found a 64GB microSD card that works flawlessly with the G Pad 8.3? I have been reading about issues people are having with the Sandisk 64GB card and I am curious if all 64GB cards have issues or only the Sandisk? Personally I have ordered the Sandisk but it has not yet arrived (neither the LG Pad) but I am wondering if I should return the Sandisk for another brand if there is one that works correctly. Thank you for any advise / feedback you can give regarding 64 GB cards you have used.
For info the one I ordered is:
http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-micro...qid=1387796520&sr=1-1&keywords=micro+sd+64+gb
That's the card I have had many issues with and tried on two different G pads... I wonder if it's incompatible with 64GB cards somehow, since I have tried lower capacity sandisk cards without issue. SDXC issue maybe and needs to be SDHC perhaps? I haven't seen anything that specifies which format of SD card is compatible... I had issues with the 64GB sandisk card as soon as I inserted it, kept saying it was removed again , then reinserted. It COULD read and write to it but lost sight of it often. In recovery mode worked flawlessly and also on PC....
I have this Samsung card and it works perfectly.....

That seems to put the Sandisk brand in the spotlight then... I just reformatted mine using the SD formatter https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/eula_windows/ but after thinking it had made a difference, the tablet lost sight of it again 40% through a backup...

I'm happy to use SanDisk in my cameras, but for mobile devices I've read of too many problems. Samsung, on the other hand, seems to receive pretty universal praise. No doubt there are exceptions, but I went for Samsung based on rep and superior speed.
I've had no issues running the Sandisk 64GB card in my G Pad. Currently have it formatted with exFAT. I have a ton of stuff on it as well as moved all of my games onto it using Foldermount. Thus would know immediately if the card were to disappear / no longer be recognized. Check the format of the card. If you have it formatted in FAT32 then reformat it to exFAT. I believe exFAT is preferred with larger cards.
Thanks for the info about exfat, this sounds promising. Can anyone with the SanDisk card that is having issues try this and confirm if it fixes their issue. When mine arrives I will try it out but I need to wait another week or so. Thank you

Unrelated but I could never get any 64GB card (and I tried 4 different brands) to work properly in my Samsung 8"..
I have a 32GB in the LG currently and was planning on getting a 64, now maybe not?
I have a Sandisk ultra 64gb and use folder mount and run my games from it with no problems.
i have no problem with my 64gb sd card that i ordered from amazon didn't need to format it or anything just worked out of the box

Same here got the same card works flawlessly Samsung 64gb class10 card
I have the 64gb sandisk I moved from my tf700, no issues
Anyone tried the more generic brands yet? I have a 32gb Patriot Class 10 that seems to work fine, but there's a 64gb on sale at a local Canadian retailer that looks mighty tempting...

I certainly wouldn't consider Patriot a generic company!
I have a 64GB card from Komputerbay that was £35 from Amazon.co.uk that is working well so far. Came formatted exFAT.
I've lost faith in the SanDisk cards. Also, the Ultra cards that most people talk about are not very fast!

[Q] 128Gb or 64Gb microSD cards that work with Tab S

Samsung galaxy Tab S 800 Europe 16Gb wifi model supports suitable 128Gb cards. Don't see a Samsung genuine card, plse has anyone successfully used aan aftermarket 128Gb card - which?
Samsung make 2 high-speed 64Gb UHS-1 cards, the MB-MGCGB and the (apparently faster) MB-MG64B. Please anyone used either or know the max speed supported by the Tab S?
many thanks

I have only used Sandisk 64GB and 128GB. Both formatted FAT32. Both work well.

I am using 128GB from Sandisk. Can use it out of the box but reformatted with the Tab S just to play safe.
As far as I know, Samsung sd cards I've seen are only up to 64gb and I don't see any 128gb. I suggest you get a SanDisk one and don't go for any class A ones.

Run a h2testw to determine if the card is legit, let me guess you got it off ebay? If so, you can report it counterfeit if the test comes back bad.

Hmm, I've just bought an official Samsung 64gb class 10 and videos don't play well, some mp4s work, MKV dont and AVIs stall.
The same videos on a Kingston 32gb class 4 play flawlessly, all of them.
Really confused...

128GB card for I9301I

Hi, I was thinking about expanding my device memory via micro sd card and of course i aimed for 64GB BUT then I asked myself "hey, how about 128GB? great idea!". So here's my question: have anyone tried 128GB card in our S3 Neo?
It wont work ... s3 neo only supports up to 64GB
I am using 64GB
Works perfectly

Galaxy S3 Neo supports up to 64GB MicroSD card :/
Quick tip: If you're going to buy your SD card online beware of fake cards !!!
I think it can handle it because my old phone only supported 32 GB and I inserted my 64 one and after a short time I could usw it normally so it should work too.

Buy in online store, test SD card and return it if it does not work. If you live in EU i think you have 14 days to contact, return and get refund from item.

The speed of SD cards it supports is not out yet. Yes it will support UFS, up to 2TB; however 256 gb is the most Samsung sells at the moment.
This SanDisk Extreme 128gb U3 works just fine.

Thanks for the info Techvir, presumably by now you have the card and it works OK?
I have the 256gb samsung card, it's pretty damn fast. Beats the crap out of the 3-4 year old 64gb evo card I had previously.
My experience with sandisk cards is a horrible one so can't comment there. I've had an insane amount of their cards fail over the years.
