thats why Ive been telling people it doesnt make a difference if you get a class 2 card
It does if you ever need to reformat, or move a lot of files in and out at once.
The 8 gig in my DStwo currently is only a class... 4 I think. And boy am I paying for it waiting for the stuff I move back and forth from it. Save times are also shorter on a faster-class card I've noticed.
I've got a 4gig class 10 in my digital camera, and it's near-instant for saving and loading images from. Problem is, it's only a full-size SD, so that won't help me with my problem.
