This card is fast enough for DSLR's though isn't it? I just bought the Pentax K2000 and these looked like a nice fit. I also plan to use them to transfer data (pics and movies) from one computer to another. Is the card fast enough or did I leap before I looked at the deal?
minghi said: just curious, what are the chances of failure for a no name memory card? assuming pictures are worth a thousand words The registrant of website www.easystorememory.com is SanDisk Corporation, so presumably the Easystore memory cards are either made by SanDisk or at least distributed through them.
afaiktoit said: generally a class=megabytes per second write speed. class 2=2mbps Class rating is the minimum megabytes per second write speed based on "the best fragmented state where no memory unit is occupied". Actual benchmarks for these particular Easystore 4GB cards according to h2testw are an average of 6MB/S write and 10MB/S read when filling up the entire card with data and reading it back.
Class rating is not necessarily a good indicator of actual speeds, particularly when comparing cards from different manufacturers. I have an 8GB SanDisk Class 2 microSDHC that benchmarks at 13MB/S write and 18MB/S read, and a Class 6 PQI card that benchmarks at 9MB/S write and 14MB/S read. Regardless of actual speed, some devices query the card to determine class and may require a minimum class rating.
