I'd assume that it's a Class 2. Doubt for the price it would be any faster.
Edit: beaten by 30 seconds
Bit too slow, prefer a 16GB Class 6 faster speeds and still reasonably good size.
I have one of these Sandisk 32GB's already, it gets nearly 6MB/s write…

So it could technically be almost called a class 6, and would be called class 6 by other manufacturers.
Note though that the newest Sandisk cards are starting to be classed much closer to their actual speeds. The new Sandisk 16GB Class4 cards are actually slower than the slightly older Sandisk 16GB Class2 cards.
class 2, so min 2mb/sec write speed
There are fake ones selling all over ebay. How can we tell its not one of those dodgy Sandisks?
No idea but there are two types of fakes.
The ones that are 1GB hacked to 32GB.
and the ones that are 32GB and branded with a brand. The only way to tell the difference is the print quality or write/read speeds.
Check out this previous post they are imports from HK some say with no retail packaging http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/36030

And why use ebay why not list it on Shopping Square website?
SS like to donate $$$ to feebay :)
Because so many people will only find the items if they're on ebay, sadly.
fake card can be tested by software like h2testw
fake card eBay seller normally from Oversea with lower feedback (e.g. less than 1000)
Pay your eBay order with PayPal Only, in case anything go wrong. You got buyers protection from PayPal.
lol dont get me started on Paypal.
yeah good luck get your hard earn cash from paypal.
Does it come with retail packaging?
I got my last 16gb Sandisk from ShoppingSquare with no issue. Came in retail packaging and was pleasantly surprised to find I had been posted a Class 4 card. Passed H2TestW with flying colours with a 5.5mb/s write and 14mb/s read speed. Thanks again ShoppingSquare
You were lucky to get a class 4,
Bummer dude, if it had been a Sandisk Class 2 card it would have been 7MB/s write…

I used the benchmark built into H2TestW and wrote to the full capacity of the card. I do not put much faith in the synthetic benchmarks used in that WP thread like crystal disk. The point is sustained writes are higher than what is advertised which is a win in my books.
That thread has 3x 16GB Class 2 cards tested, and 3x 16GB Class4's tested, all Sandisks.
And your sequential write result matches the other C4 Sandisk results on there too.
The point is sustained writes are higher than what is advertised which is a win in my books.
Thats not a point, thats just what the class rating is all about - minimum sequential write speed. So in this case you only just scraped in with your C4.
The real point is that the C4 cards are significantly slower than the C2s are for 16GB Sandisks. Therefore you were unlucky to get a C4 Sandisk instead of a C2.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SDHC#Speed_Class_Rating
"The Class number represents a multiple of 8 Mb/s (1 MB/s), and meets the least sustained write speeds for a card in a fragmented state"
Might want to recheck the definition of the SDHC classes before going further with that.
Same thing, I just used laymans terms for you.
Sequential =/ sustained thereby confirming your ignorance on the subject. Go educate yourself or find the door because I am afraid you are wrong.
How does your wacked out therory explain the identical results seen between h2 and CDM then? It doesn't because sustained/sequential is the same thing as far as flash memory is concerned.
Also, you should have run h2testw twice and used the second result since it would then require an erase/write cycle each time. This is what it means by "fragmented" on your wikipedia link, which is leymans again since flash cannot be fragmented.
Not going to argue anymore with you. Your argument is flawed based on incorrect assumptions displayed in a whirlpool thread of all places (fact: most people on whirlpool have no idea what they are talking about). You clearly do not understand how flash memory works nor how the speeds are rated. end of story
Its really because you cant argue with hard evidence.
Quoting and disputing loose applications of technical terms shows your poor understanding of flash memory etc.
I wrote my first driver interface to a discrete flash memory card in 1998. You?
Troll more buddy. I can't help it if you cannot admit that your underlying assumptions are totally wrong to which the proof is easily available to you everywhere on the internet. As for writing your own driver, good for you. Give yourself a clap on the back.
Lol, i guess you can now add ozb to your ever growing list of sites where everyone else is wrong.
This is really cheap.
I bought an Archos 70 Android Tablet and was looking to get an MicroSD card for it, would you guys recommend a faster 16GB over this 32GB card though?
I have micro SDs in so many devices.. R4, phone, housemates tablet, and they're all the cheapest most basic ones I could get, and I have absolutely no issues with speed. I'd stick with the cheap 32gb.
Where is REALLY matters is in a camera, where write performance really matters.
That said, I've been doing a lot of data transfer lately and the slow cards are a right royal PITA when you try to plonk (say) a 4GB movie ISO or similar onto them… the transfer speed is like watching paint dry!
Damn just bought a 16gb card from you guys on Monday, would have jumped on this, good deal.
you need at least class 6 for HD video recording. Thus i think i might end up getting my 16gb class 10 card from the local shop at MSY.com.au for about $33
Ordered 08/01. Arrived 15/01 in envelope without packaging (despite explicit request in delivery info). Includes microSD card + adapter, and a plastic holder for both.
H2testw v1.4 result:

You can now delete the test files *.h2w or verify them again.

What class is this card?
