My 16GB Extreme front part look the same also, just that the behind is similar to your 32GB Extreme.

Maybe you can check whether you have the sticker of the authorised distributor stick on it or not.

Sandisk SD card have several different versions/revisions.
I've seen legit sandisk cards with your designs.

Just do a speed test and a capacity test.

If still in doubt, just follow

Capacity can't 100% match the written storage la. Just like your 1TB HDD, you won't get 1000 GB of usable data. You only get like 92-93% of usable Data. Same goes with the SDHC card smile.gif

And like legendlee mentioned, do some benchmark tests like Crystal DiskMark or HDTune

The 45mbps thinggy is actually the READING speed. The Sandisk (or other competitor) tend to use read speed as advertisement. Its part of marketing gimmick.
Both card that you own seems legit icon_rolleyes.gif

Also what card of card reader you use? It's UBS3.0? It's support UHS-I? It could affect the benchmark

Card reader WILL AFFECT the speed of reading/writting. Get a decent card reader and you should notice a good increase in speed smile.gif

ASUS card reader. thanks for the green light biggrin.gif

i'm able to register the Serial number of the RESCUEPro Deluxe provided in the 32GB memory card. hence should be legit i guess. rclxms.gif

thx for the reply guys smile.gif notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

hmm.. im using a ASUS laptop built in card reader... tried to check the specs but couldnt find the speed of it.

btw the difference between the write speed of the 32GB and the 16GB from 512k onwards, isit becuz of the version of 32GB being a newer version?

Normally the benchmark could give a weido result as you using built in card reader. Have you try to redo the test? it's giving a same result?
IF you do have other card reader,then the conclusion can be made laugh.gif

But trust me, IMHO I dont really care the benchmark result. If the card doesn't give you any problem ( corrupt pic, slow buffer on cam) just go out and shoot the picture icon_rolleyes.gif

thx for the assurance smile.gif hmm.. about the buffer on cam, I manage to get 10 RAW BURST continuously on D7k ( before the buffer kicks in , 1/8000s ) on all 3 of the cards in cluding the LEXAR class 4.

do i test the buffer like that? or am i looking at it wrongly.
