Hi,

i have got a 1GB SanDisk Mini SD in my Wizard and i wanted to know how fast it is. i have done a benchmark with following tool:
http://spbsoftwarehouse.com/downloads/45/SpbBenchmark.e

Here are my results:
SanDisk 1GB:
Writing 1 MB file 3194.4
Reading 1 MB file 1112.6
Copying 1 MB file to storage card 1006.2
Copying 1 MB file from storage card 1042.9
Writing 100 of 10 KB files 39187.6
Reading 100 of 10 KB files 1286.8
Copying 100 of 10 KB files to storage card 36057.7
Copying 100 of 10 KB files from storage card 36231.4
Directory listing: 2000 files 378.5

I have done a comparison with other Memory Cards (SD) with other devices and have recognized that my card is not as fast as other SD Cards. Here is a link (unfortunately in german) where you can find a lot of results (i recommend to switch to the last page at once because these results are the new one):

What i want to know: Is the SanDisk the slowest part in the system or is it the Wizard itself. To find out i need your help: I want you to do also a benchmark and post the results here. This will help us, to speed up the Wizard by buying an apropriate Mini SD Card to a reasonable price.

You need to install the tool (it is very easy) perform a test, post the results and unistall the tool again.

Thanx in advance.

Yes I have measured this in my o2 xda mini

but what i dont understand is how the result works is the lower numbers you get mean a faster card or the other way around

The measurement is done in ms. The lower the numbers the faster the card. It measures the time which lasts if a e.g. 1MB file is read from your storage card. The lower, the faster.

Ok mate

Can you test your card speed in your pc using a card reader and the tool attached to this post choose KByte/Sec & post the result here
