When are we going to have 1TB on microXD? 8'B
what would you do with a tb sd card ?
it’s not the same speed or durability as an ssd .
even sadder is these things are only a U1 in speed for writing ……
I know but when you see all phone makers advertising their phones support up to 2TB.
Perhaps,one could record a whole day footage in 4K resolution with his phone. New Blair witch sequel? 8-B
it’s U1 speed so not fast enough for 4k recording, can read 4k content as read speed is always faster than write.
might be good for storing lots of movies if you watch movies on your phone on the train or at airports.
@garage sale: Wrong. Bitrate matters not resolution. S8+ for example records 4k at about 50Mbps, thats 6.25 MB/s which is well under the 10MB/s minimum speed of U1.
@muncan: not everybody has the s8, some people just have a gopro ….. check the sandisk web site for speeds and applications ….it’s why they have sandisk extreme …for the 4k jockeys….
@garage sale: I don’t have an S8, and I just finished recording a sweet ride on the Bernina Express @ 4K on my GoPro on a Sandisk U1. https://i.imgur.com/4Ub5ObG.jpg
I think the topic was around microSD and not SSD.
ok this is getting ridiculous
Why? It's the same as the increase in hard disk storage capacity over the years.
That's what I said when I got my first 80 megabyte drive.
Why would you buy an 80 megabyte drive in 2018?
this would carry alot of pr0n on the go lolz
i only watch p0rn in 8k… so, no
If your 8K video is only in 10 megabits per second, this card can carry many hours of porn (censored version, that's why it's only 10 mb/s).
Uncensored is about 12”/s?
if only my phone had a microsd slot
Perfect for the upcoming Nintendo Switch CFW with downloaded games.
Insane! My first pc had a 20 MEGABYTE seagate and Windows 3.0 installation shipped on 6 x 1.44meg floppies.
Iomega ZIP drives were quite amazing external storage at 100meg.
But if you told me then that you can reliably store 400 gig on something the size of your lil pinkie fingernail….
Honestly still not enough.
I think I would need 100TB to be very happy.. Yeah I'm THAT kind of data hoarder.
I hate deleting stuff because usually I'll just have to redownload it again.
It's just nice to be able to type a few words and have what you want displayed on your screen in an instant no buffering no quality switching.
Just need a nice lightweight and portable 4k HDR 7 to 8 inch tablet now.
Just set up a large raid array, sure it won't be quite as good accessing it over the internet, but it'll be perfect over the local network.
Also, don't forget that the 4K HDR 8" tablet needs to be OLED. OLED makes a huge difference.
I've had this conversation so many times, but there is almost zero need for a home user to have a RAID array.
If you want backup, it should be an offsite backup. Either pay for an online backup, or put your physical backup offsite. 99.9% of home users do not require a quick turnaround on uptime. It doesn't matter if they lose access to their data for a day or two. RAID Arrays are a waste of money for home users.
A 100TB microsd also currently has almost zero need for a home user to own.
I completely understand that a RAID is unnecessary for many users and an offside backup is a better alternative, and if your internet speed is too slow for an offsite backup you can mail a drive to Amazon and they will copy the data to your cloud account.
What I meant was a RAID striped with parity, as JBOD isn't a good idea if you're going to be running 10+ drives together to get 100TB storage.
If you're running JBOD and just a single 10tb disk fails, you'll be looking at a download time of at least 100 days if you don't have NBN yet and have a speed of 10 megabits per second non-stop and nothing else downloading in the background.
That's also not taking the cost of 100TB cloud storage into consideration.
Pretty sure 100 days is a bit longer than a day or two.
If you have 50 down NBN and you always get 50 megabits down (unlikely considering how many people have issues with the NBN) you'd still be looking at approx 500 hours download time, at least 10x longer than your 'day or two' estimate.
Now, instead you might choose to give your friend 10 x 10TB drives and ask them to keep them connected to a computer or NAS so you can backup to them. Even if you have someone who'll do that for you, the only advantage it would have over a RAID is if something happened to your home, like a fire etc.
Conwider the use case before saying a RAID isn't needed, I was talking about a 100TB RAID, not a 100GB RAID.
You're right that 99.9% of home users don't need a RAID, but when talking about 100TB of storage it's pretty clear that I'm talking about the 0.1%. Unlike me, you clearly haven't needed to recover 10TB of data on an ADSL connection (In case you're wondering, I have 4 megabits down, it took over a year.)
You need to learn to let go. You don't need to carry all that digital baggage with you.
Does this work in the s9?
I'm sure it would.
Yes it can. Maximum for the S9 is 400GB
This would be good for that upcoming nintendo switch hack ay?
naww hell yea since it will give VC since nintnedo wont
That's a waste of money.
There's an open source CFW in the works, by the time team Xecutor releases their device (which uses the same exploit that was already made public) a free alternative will likely be available.
Instead of spending $30 USD on that, you can launch payloads with an android, OSX, Windows, Linux etc, and you just need a USB cable.
Their CFW for loading games will be dumped and made available for free, or the features it has will be added to Atmosphere (which is free) or a fork.
That device is just the new Gateway, it's making money from piracy and closed source, but the Gateway was actually ahead of the homebrew community for a while. This is behind the homebrew community in most aspects.
With Fusee Gelee public and Atmosphere releasing soon, there's little need to buy that device.
$30USD is not a lot of money for a jig and a device thingo that is dedicated to booting the payload. I won't rush too quickly though, i'll wait for more details on both ends.
@musicinbed69: I agree it isn't a lot of money, but it's still money vs the free open source alternative that will likely have the same features incorporated.
Not even UHS Class 3, disappoint.
Still perfect for plenty of applications, such as the Switch. I agree that it's a shame it lacks UHS Class 3, but it's good for the price.
read higher up on this deal people on samsung S8 are recoding 4k and people,on go pro are recording 4k on U1 cards …. has me beat …. my nikon takes forever to write to U1 so all my cards are now ultra U3 and work sweet ….. not sure who is buying the U3 besides me with samsung and go pro users (bernina is a sewing machine so maybe they record 4k sewing videos) are claiming to do doing 4 k recording fine … didn’t check number of frames but i pressure 30 fps minimum …..
seems u1 is fine for 4k recording based on other people’s experience ….. sandisk need to update ,their web site.
Omg 400gig on a 5 cent piece makes my head spin.
