Well, I'm not that familiar with MicroSDHC cards due to using nothing but MicroSD cards so I wanted some advice from my fellow tempers. I know class 6 cards are the best right now, but what about the brand? What do you guys suggest getting for a flashcard? I'm looking for a card that can handle Homebrew and Backups without any slow downs and freezing if possible. While I will accept suggestions for 4 Gigabyte cards, 8 Gigabyte is preferred. Also I'm looking for a card thats in the ~20$ dollar range.


So out of these cards, what are the best:
4 Gigabytes

8 Gigabytes

Thanks again Tempers!

I'd trust SanDisk for class 6 8GB MicroSDHC.

Kingston does not seem to make Class 6 cards but if you're fine with Class 4 (shouldn't really make a difference anyways), then go for it. They are a lot cheaper.

I've used the 4 gig A-data class 6 for a year without a single real corruption issue (formatted once every two months) I've only experienced a slowdown on one game. (Zombie BBQ)
A-data gets my praise.

I would get a Kingston or Sandisk, 8 GB SDHC Class 6.

Very expensive... not to mention in most cases class 4 is suitable. Besides there are other brands besides kingston and sandisk which work just as well.

i'm also trying to decide on a class 4 kingston or class 6 a-data. does anyone have experience with a class 4 kingston? are they fast enough to run problem games such as POR or TWEWY?

Class 4 kingston definitely in my opinion. A data has had a few problems with their micro Sd cards... Also class 4 will be more than sufficient in most cases =]

    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
