5.0 out of 5 stars Fast (Class 4) and Reliable, June 12, 2009

This review is from: Kingston 8 GB microSDHC Class 4 Flash Memory Card with SD and miniSD Adapters SDC4/8GB-2ADP (Personal Computers)

I love these Kingston 8GB microSDHC cards because they are extremely reliable and portable. With a memory card reader (such as this Kingston microSD Card Reader), I am able to use these in lieu of flash drives for storage and backups.

Contents
--------
The package comes with a SD Card Adapter, a miniSD Card Adapter, and of course, the 8GB microSDHC card.

- SD Card Adapter
Since SD cards are here to stay, the SD card adapter is a nice inclusion into the package. I use the SD card adapter for my HP IPAQ 111 and my Garmin nüvi 360.

- miniSD Card Adapter
miniSD cards have been phased out, so unless you still possess a device that takes miniSD cards, you most likely won't have any use for it. I personally don't have a device that takes miniSD cards. However, I did find a use for it in my Kingston Mobilelite Memory Card Reader, which has 3 slots - one for a microSD card, one for a miniSD card, and one for a regular SD card. I simply keep my miniSD Card Adapter in my Mobilelite to turn the miniSD slot into an extra microSD slot!

Pros
----
- Fast (Class 4)
The speed of an SD card is rated using three speed classes, namely, class 2, class 4, and class 6 (in order of speed from slowest to fastest).

This SD card is rated class 4 (data transfer rate: 4 MByte/sec, or 32 mbps). Transcend makes one that's rated class 6 (6 MByte/sec, or 48 mpbs). A class 4 SD card is sufficiently fast for the majority of electronics. A decidedly small number of consumer electronics, most notably some high-resolution camcorders and high-end cameras, require a class 6 SD card.

- Reliable
I have used Kingston SD cards for the last couple of years and have found them to be extremely reliable - no faulty cards, or devices failing to recognize the cards. I would caution, however, that these cards are in the microSDHC format (4GB - 32GB), which may not be compatible with older devices that take only microSD cards (2GB and under).

---
These high capacity Kingston Technology microSDHC cards are fast, reliable, and provide plenty of storage and the included adapters come in really handy. You really can't go wrong with them!
