SDCard test: Samsung 8GB class 2 vs Kingmax 8GB class 10

---

I got a new SD card today, Kingmax 8GB class 10. Got it from eBay for an odd $20 including shipping (arrived in 2 weeks).

Read test - HD Tune:

Stock:



Kingmax:



Read/write test - CrystalDiskMark:

Stock:



Kingmax:



Read/write test - USBDeview:

Stock:



Kingmax:



Unfortunately I cannot do any device tests yet, as my phone is in for 'repairs' (random reboot problem).

Looks good! As mine stock SD card crashed for an unknown reason wanting one very good card because i lost a lot if pictures and movies if my kids :(

Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

Good to hear someone got something off ebay that wasn't fake!
Nice job grabbing that.

Great information! I was looking at Kingmax cards today and I question if they were legit or not since I haven't heard of them. After seeing this test i'm ordering one .

Just received a SanDisk 32GB class 4.

Update:

Card is bad. Binning it. Too good to be true...

From what I can tell, everything works. How genuine (actual SanDisk, it is written on the card) it is, I dunno. I will be testing it some more to be 100% sure.

Update:

chkdsk reports a few bad sectors (512KB in total). It could be that this was so cheap due to not passing Q/A tests. Doing a slow scan now.

chkdsk output:

           32 KB in 1 files.
