I believe I read somewhere that the device itself only supports Class 2 speeds... so obviously, you can use a faster class, but it will run at Class 2 in the device. Of course, if you're on/off loading files from your PC with a quicker bus, that would be speedier with the higher classes, but you won't see a performance increase on the Storm.
I've been wondering the same thing. If you check Ebay there's a guy who sells 8 gig Class 2 MicroSD cards for around $25. Comes with a USB adapter and stuff... great deal... but it's kind of slow.
If the reader in the Storm can only read at Class 2 speed, it'd be a waste of money to buy a faster card.
The only guy here who'd probably know is CX and something like that is still under the NDA I would imagine.
everything i've heard is class 2.
with a couple year old pc, you need an adapter to read the card outside
of the BB.
I'm sure this has come up, what's the max size support 16g? 32g? advertised, the specs just say removable memory...
I've bought three on Ebay and not had any problems. I didn't realize there was a potential risk. Maybe I got lucky?
What are they doing? Selling off branded stuff as branded?
Alot of times they sell blems, stuff that's not outright defective, but for whatever reason wouldn't pass full quality control. Last year there was a bunch of barely oversized 4g cards that came out, they worked fine, but only fit into phones and such after you sanded them down a bit..
amazon.com also has really good deals on card/reader combos, but if they're coming with 8g cards why does it matter.....8 gig is mighty big, i've never had mine over 5g and i'm a media *****......
