"i gonna take the plunge. i ordered one piece 4Gb class 10. if you would wait for it, i will test it and post result as soon as i receive it."

Hi guys,

Tested the "Extreme Sandisk 4Gb". I bought it for RM52. Read/Write speed only 19Mb/s.

So I guess it's only about class 4 speed. Oh well, RM52 for class 4 SD card, ok lor. tongue.gif

My advice, stay away.... smile.gif

Which brand's Class 4 can read/write at 20Mb/s? Heck most Class 6 cannot write at 20Mb/s.

The old Extreme III is supposed to go at 20Mb/s, only the newer faster ones are 30mbps. The 30Mb/s ones have a tag, and the design is a little different.

I tested the card connected to USB card reader using HD Tune. Is that a good enough test?

What I meant is, which Class 4 you mentioned, does 20Mb/s read and write? Very curious to know, so far I've used only this cheap Extreme III can burst 100 shots without slowing down on my D90. Those Class 4 would stop halfway. (Say about 20-30 shots).

Besides, how fast your card can read and write depends a lot on the card reader. Are you using something like those Sandisk Imagemate?

just using normal usb card reader. test shows 19mb/s read write. burst got not problem. i tested till 50 shots. i don't think i will burst so much in the field anyway. max 3-5 shots burst for me.
