Cool [Q] Simple Question (NAND VS SD)
Hi,

Just a quick question,

What are the advantages and disadvantages of SD and NAND,

Finally which one is best,

I am running SD Andriod and wondered if it is worth the risk for NAND,

Will I see a performance boost?

Alex

I've not ran an SD since before nand came out. But I think you would see a huge improvement in every aspect using nand over SD. The only downside I can see is if you like windows mobile..

Nand is faster.

SD is easier to have multiple builds and swapping builds. It also allows you to have Windows mobile or Windows Phone 7 on the Nand.

Nope. SD will always be slower.

Man you have to make a big step .
when u will jamb to nand roms, u will see another phone between your hands, and don't forget to use MAGLDR installer it's a little complicated than CLK.
Good luck

Flashed NAND eariler TBD Runny, it's f***ing awsome, if you are on the edge of flashing or not, push yourself over and flash!!! Awsome! You guys making SD build do a great job well done but nand has the advantage!
