Sandisk 16gb MicroSD class 4.

I don't feel it is a lot slower than the internal card.

I use the memory card to store all pictures I take, work documents and other things that I might not always want to have with me.

I also run Easy debian of the memory card.

If you are using the MicroSD slot internally then you want the fastest card you can sensibly afford. Personally I am using SanDisk.

I've always used sandisk memory cards and rarely had a problem with them. Using the 16gb card right now waiting for the 32gb to drop

Im waiting for 32GB but right now my root memory use is way more of a problem than anything else. i still have like 15GB left on internal memory with 5 full movies, 30 or so episodes of robot chicken, a full season of metalocalypse and like 600 songs.

I cant think of much else I need to add.

I'm using a 16gb Sandisk class 2 which I bought about 2 years ago for $60. It came with a micro reader (usb) as well.

I will be getting the Transcend class 6 for roughly $90 very shortly.
