Hacking Anyone have trouble with using larger Micro SD cards??

[jacobbones]

So I just bought the supercard two and it is an incredible product.

I am using it for the snes emulation as much as the ds games

But I initially purchased 4gb micro sd cards and then went overboard on the roms and seems a larger card is needed.

Just wondering if anyone has had any issues when using a 16 gb card? Not sure if you have a large card with alot of stuff on it if it will slow things down and cause games to not play correctly or any other issues.

Thanks

Im using a 32 gb sdhc and it's fine.

only issue was the video player wouldnt read any vids.. formatting solved it.

Been searching around, looks like I may be better off going woth a 8gb card.
the 16gb ones seem to have slow read/write speeds from what I see
Im not going to buy a sandisk from what I read about the current quality,a nd taking a risk on a $50+ card that I hope will be allright doesnt sound like a smart move

Just wanted a big card as Im giving a DSI with the supercard to my nephews and wanted to cram it full of as many games as I could

well i use a 16GB sdhc and i have no problems

What kind is it?
The more I look at what a good card to get is the more posts I see about this brand being crap, this game not working on that card.

I dont know what to get.

I just came across this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16820220524

Looks allright, think I might just try that out

I'm using a 16gb sandisk class 2 and everything works fine

Here is a class 10 16GB for 30 bucks. I can't vouch on how it works though because I haven't gotten it in the mail yet. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...1-405-_-Product

When you get it, could perform a quick test to see what it's Latency and Read Speed is ?
You'd need HDTach(free program) and a Card Reader.
8GB Class 6 and I get 0.9ms and 14.9 MB/s

If it gets near them speeds I'll probably buy one myself, and if you could check the Write Speed too, not sure what you can use for that though :/

I have the same card as RoMee, and the only trouble I ran into was with Mario vs. Donkey Kong Mini-Land Mayhem (issues with graphics) and Dark Dawn (wouldn't load). It's all good now since supercard released a patch to fix both.

I also ordered one of those cards, still waiting, fingers crossed.

Can anyone find me a site with similar prices for micro sdhc flash cards that will ship to canada or within canada?

I got the card in tonight and I used crystaldiskmark to test it. the results say it has a read speed of 19.80MBps and a write speed of 14.60MBps

 

[EJames2100]

Very nice, I think their write speed test is a little innacurate tbh(CrystalDiskMark that is) as I get 10+ MB/s with my Class 6 and pretty certain I don't get that when I'm actually copying the files. And pretty certain it's not a pc issue as it's the same on others.

The read test is pretty accurate and I like the look of that speed, Latency should be very low, would be nice to have a number to go with it though.

 

[Hax Mega]

The latency was .5 when I tested on HDtach.

 

[EJames2100]

O.o
Overall, that is one beastly card, massive performance for quite a low price too, be ordering soon I think.

Thank you Hax

Its got like 7 reviews, one of them says it failed in a week, couple good ones and couple more not so good.
You guys sure thats a good card?

 

[snake2]

only one way to find out, if it blows then I can always flip it on gregs list

 

[jacobbones]

So has anyone tried the wintec class 10 card yet?

Just wondering if its any good. It keeps getting 1 bad review for every good on newegg. But seems most of the bad are that it doesn't write at class 10 speed
