4.0 out of 5 stars Transcend 32 GB SDHC Review, May 25, 2009

This review is from: Transcend 32 GB SDHC Class 6 Flash Memory Card TS32GSDHC6 (Personal Computers)

Before you drop 120~$ for a SD card ask yourself, Do you really need 32GB card? because the card itself with same specs costs only 35$ for the 16GB version, anyway here is info that might help you

Pros :
1- Class 6 Card the(guaranteed minimum Read/write speed of 6MB/s)
2- My Test Results 18.2-18.5MB/S Read - 11.6-11.8 Write (very stable)
3- Faster than average cards and almost close to top speed SDHC cards
4- 32GB in a single small chip is awesome(You can use it as a portable HD once in a while, i share some stuff with my friends with it sometimes


Cons :
1- Expensive
2- You can get two 16GB cards for around only 70$ and save yourself 50$~
3- Slow write speeds for a 32GB card (Takes forever to fill it with DATA from PC, its not the card fault though , its just the SDHC technology is getting old and slow for 2009 standards , time for newer Tech)

* Important Info

Avoid the Sandisk Ultra Series they never reach the true marketed speed "15MB-20MB/S" its just in theory speed like how everybody knows that USB2 is much slower than its specs, and they are only Class 2 for the 32GB version which will drop frames from your HD video (Plus Class 4 is minimum requirement for shooting in HD ) if you plan to get San disk Card then get the Extreme III Series (but again from my own Tests there read speed is about 20MB not 30MB and the write speed is 14MB/s~ instead of the transcend 11MB/s write speed (Unless you spam shooting pictures with your DSLR you don't "need" faster speed)

I bought This card because i plan to take videos with my HD camcorder that last more 2 Hours, if you do not plan to shoot for longtime then you are better with getting the 16GB card HOWEVER, if you are lazy like my mom and do not plan to transfer DATA from the card to Your computer HD after every trip, then get the 32GB card.or you gonna end up on a trip and a message pops "No memory"

If you plan to shoot for longer time, check your camcorder battery too does it even last that long? so be sure about that before you drop over 100$ for this card

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best SDHC card on the market, July 16, 2009

By 

Matt "Custom" (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Transcend 32 GB SDHC Class 6 Flash Memory Card TS32GSDHC6 (Personal Computers)

I have done my research and this is the fastest, most reliable, best built, most reasonably priced card on the market.
I rigorously tested this card and it performs at sustained speeds of 8MB/s write and 28MB/s read. It has handled the abuse of being re-inserted into the dslr every day and it has never lost a photo or hiccuped in any way. The speed is even more than than enough for videos even at 24 megabits per second.

1.0 out of 5 stars Works great till it doesn't., November 27, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: Transcend 32 GB SDHC Class 6 Flash Memory Card TS32GSDHC6 (Personal Computers)

I really wish I had read the reviews more carefully. Tempted by the lowest price on the 32GB Class VI card, I jumped on the deal, for my AVCHD camcorder. It worked fine for a couple of months, till today, when I tried to copy back the footage I captured this Thanksgiving. Suddenly, the card is not recognized by any of my systems (mac, pc, even the camera). Everything is lost - all the precious two hour footage of the grandparents singing, my cute nephews and nieces, the jovial times around the fireplace, the great Turkey feast. All, just gone. If one can't tell, I am distraught.

To any potential buyers, please, you may think that you'll be great about backing up your footage/pictures, you may think that these 350 (and counting) odd people who gave this product a 1 star - are just exceptions, you may think this won't happen to you. But it will, and when it does, it will take your precious memories with it.

Please, for the sake of preserving your digital treasures, don't trust this ignoble company and their reprehensible product.
