Recommendations on buying memory cards
 
hey guys i want to buy a Sandisk 32gb Micro SDHC card class 4 (it's already out right?), but the local stores here is not selling them (even the class 2 ones). so i'm thinking of buying it online. can you guys recommend me some trusted sites/sellers? i'd really appreciate it.

A 16GB sandisk works well and is actually pretty decently priced.
32GB is out, just pricey.

yeah, but i need more space for my music haha. don't mind paying for it, just want to find a trusted site/seller. most customers said that they got the class 2 instead of the 4, so i wouldn't want to be cheated..

Adata MicroSD 32GB Class 10. ($125NZD)
or
Adata MicroSD 16GB class 6 ($45NZD).


Brilliant memory card from Adata. I'm loving it at the moment. I got 16GB and 32GB from Adata and they had never failed on me.

If you want a class 10 one then I'll act as your medium for you if you want.

If you pay for it and shipping cost then I'll happily be the medium and take it to the post office to send it to you when it get to me. :)

If it doesn't absolutely have to be Sandisk, 7dayshop list several options.

wow they already have a class 10? is the speed really a class 10? have you compared it with other 32gb memory cards? i might go for it if it is that dependable as you say it is. haven't tried Adata yet. more of a Sandisk user for the past few years. nonetheless i'll let you know alright. thanks for the offer.

in Malaysia. well i've done some scouting, and i found a few stores that do sell it. but they are either a different brand or they have to order it first, which i have done and didn't work out. took too long for them to get it. i trust Sandisk because i've had bad experiences with Kingston and a few unknown brands compared to my excellent experience with Sandisk. their cards have lasted for me and works well. that's why i'm aiming for Sandisk. don't really mind the slightly higher price for it..

Re: Recommendations on buying memory cards
 
oh and can someone fill me in on the difference of class on the memory card? i've done some research, specifically on Sandisk, that said that there were almost no difference in terms of write/read speed between the class 2 and class 4. most of them said that the class 2 performed above the expected speed (around the class 4 speed) whereas the class 4 performed as its said speed. can someone shed some light on this?
