I'm looking to buy an SD card for my MDA Compact...would you recommend a particular brand? please list the ones that are incompatible. I'm looking for one that is most compatible and can be used with GPS software as well as playing music. what is the minimum RW speed required to achieve this. thanks alot in advance

I have a SanDisk Extreme III 1GB SD card, but it is NOT working any harder than 1MB/s, so don't buy a quick one, cause it ain't gonna be quick.

anyway, my SD is working good, also with GPS maps, mp3's, etc.

hi,

I have a 1Go Kingmax platinium SD Card (60x) and it works perfectly for me... but I'll be unable to confirm you at what rate it works... tCC how do you calculate your transfer rate ?

I have a Transcend 1gb 45x. No prob for me.

Have you ever seen an error message in German about low battery and MMC/SD card ?? I try to figure out where does it come from :-)

And what about KINGSTON 1GB (normal speed). Does it work fine?

I would recommend in this order-Apacer, Sandisk, Kingston, Panasonic and Kanguru. These are the most recommended. Well, if u will want to settle for any other than these.... well never choose Samsung. The opinion is mine.

I have a non-labelled 1gb sd, it works ok, and costs less (in fact it was the only 1gb in the store). I think they all come from the same factory, only the label changes. As the mini uses 1.1.usb, you can't get any advantage on 40x or 60x cards, so i suggest not to pay extra for that.

As far as i know all SD cards are made from the same Manufacturer in Japan...

I guess it depends on what you really need - I can imagine, that it's better for navigation if you use a highspeed card. For normal use, a regular SD cards is enough (Brand doesn't matter)
