Nice score! 32gb Class 4 micro sd

[cmarti]

Found someone selling the 32gb Sandisk class 4 micro sd for $45usd.

I looked all over online and that's more than half from what it's selling right now.

"Someone"? You'll be very lucky if it's really 32G, be sure to check it as soon as you get it.

sounds fake to me, also they can mess with the SD card so it shows as 32GB when you stick it in a comp but will fill up much faster, im not sure if there is a proper way to test that but see if you can actually stick 32GB worth of files on the card if you choose to buy it

Do NOT buy it! It is 100% fake. I don't even think sandisk makes 32G class 4.

I bought a real 32G Class 2 card from a vendor listed by sandisk. It is fast enough for everything I do.

Gang I ran H2testw 1.4 and it is 30986MByte so yes it is real and not fake.

I have a lot of experience with fakes cards so I had it tested before buying it.

Well I hope you are right. I would still try copying 30G worth of data to see if it works.

But there is absolutely no reason why a card that is better than anything around would be selling for a third of the regular price. And when something seems too good to be true it usually is.

By the way, I'm selling a bridge if anyone is interested.

doesn't guarantee its a class 4(it could easily be a class 2) and it sounds like a low quality chip considering its only 30.25GB but that's still an awesome deal

I think he does, if anyone in the US wants his phone number let me know.

IDK- the storage capacity in memory cards never matches what is says on the label and the bigger the memory card the bigger the gap is... Same with the Hard Drives.

Also my original SanDisk 16gb card that came with the MyTouch Fender edition only shows 14.8gb actual storage space instead the 16gb advertised.

This explains the gap between advertised storage capacity and actual storage capacity:

30.25GB is normal for an advertised 32G card. If I'm not mistaken it has to do with 1 GiB=2^30 bytes=1073741824 bytes while 1GB = 10^9 bytes = 1000000000. Manufacturers report on the one that will make it seem bigger (decimal) while the OS uses the other one (binary).

ya i never bothered to check my SD cards to realize they do that with flash(i knew they did that with HDDs)

PS I think you reversed the terms, I believe 1GB is 2^30

32 billion bytes is the size of the card. 1000 bytes, not 1024. Therefore the card is actually 29.8MB.

I'll still be very surprised if this Class 4 (since someone pointed out Sandisc does not make Class 4 32G cards yet!) is really 32G.

I notice the transfer rate is slow, H2TestW is filling it right now and the speed is 1.5MB.

I am testing it again to double check.

Verizon is selling Sandisk 32gb now for like $149 but an online discount of $50 so its $99 but they were sold out so I bought one from someone on eBay that got it from Verizon and they were selling it for $95 and it works perfect came in Verizon packaging and all with a SD adapter and a USB reader. Theres a bunch of people selling one from Verizon on eBay I'd say check them out they're class 2 but they write at 3mbps for me and thats good enough for me
