For those that aren't aware, I just wanted to turn you on to Samsung's new Pro series line of cards. These are different than their old Pro line of cards. I bought one of the 64GB cards and it's been fantastic. Only the 64GB model of their new Pro line uses NAND technology. The 16GB and 32GB models in the new Pro series does NOT used NAND technology.
On Samsung's web site: http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/memory-storage-accessories
Here it is at Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IVPU88U
Again, this is their new Pro series, not the old Pro series they had. The new Pro series cards are grey and white color. The old Pro series cards are black.
I bought one and use it in my Tab Pro 12.2 - fantastic card. Super fast read and write speeds.
Is this better and faster than the SanDisk micro SD cards? It takes me hours to transfer files sometimes.

It's much better. Also, I'm assuming you mean transfer files from a PC to your card and vice versa? If so, to further enhance speed, be sure you're using USB 3.0 via a USB 3.0 card reader plugged into your PC's USB 3.0 port. If you don't have a USB 3.0 port on your PC, you'll still get slower USB 2.0 transfer speeds but more stable transfer speeds with this NAND-technology card.
Hmmm, I got a Sandisk 64 GB:
http://www.sandisk.co.uk/products/memory-cards/microsd/ultra-plus-class10-for-android/?capacity=64GB
Transferred 60 gigs in 1h30 (just plugging my tablet into the PC). Was checking it wasn't a fake as it was a very good deal on Amazon, and a lot of the cheaper ones appear to be fakes. With a card reader, I could have theoretically done the transfer in 25 mins (40 MB/s).

The Tab Pro 10.1.
OK that model doesn’t have USB 3.0 so yes, you'd need to use a USB 3.0 card reader plugged into a USB 3.0 port on your PC.

Oh wow, now that's something I hadn't spotted. Only the 12" Tab Pro has USB 3. That's actually bizarre. But I don't really mind. I don't transfer 60 gigs to my tablet every day...

I've just realised I can't rename files and folders on the card, whether the tablet is connected to the PC or via ES File Explorer. Is this normal or a problem with the card?
Not normal unless the card is locked in read only mode somehow. If you upgraded at some point to Android 4.4+, the software also removed SD card write access and you'll need to install a workaround for it. The way I fixed mine was to install an app from the Play Store called FolderMount [ROOT]. Install, reboot, check if you can rename files, then uninstall. If your device isn't rooted, there are other options. Just Google "android KitKat SD fix".
Sent from my HTC One (M7) using Tapatalk.
Oh it's not in read only mode. I can copy files to the card without a problem. I can create new folders too. I just can't rename anything, it's odd. As for the upgrade, the Tab Pro 10.1 came with Android 4.4... And this card has never been in another device.
---------- Post added at 10:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 PM ----------
Okay, just remembered my Android phone (HTC*Desire HD) has a microSD card. So I swapped them. No problems renaming files of the phone with the 64 gig card. Same problem on the tablet with the phone's card, from ES File Explorer I get "task failed". From the PC renaming hangs Windows Explorer. However, from the computer, I can't even browse folders on the card. Double-clicking on any folder causes Windows Explorer to hang.
I swapped the cards back to their proper places. The 64 gig card I can browse no problem from the PC. I can delete files and folders and transfer new ones. I just can't rename anything. It's very odd. But the extra problems with the 8 gig card from the phone make me worry it might be a hardware issue. My tablet isn't rooted or anything. It's only had the official updates.

My current portable hard drive apparently uses too much power for the galaxy tab.
Are there any 500gig + hard drives that use the same power as a thumb drive or is this just wishful thinking?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
You will have to use an USB Hub with power supply. All spinning HDD's require much more power than the tablet is supplying.
I know it is not cheap, but you can today buy 128GB USB flash drives - they will work well and store also a lot of HD movies!
i am curious how you are connection your HD to the tab? if you are usign the usb host usb adapter, the little paper that came with it supports up to 32gb fat32 drives. i dont know if thats true or not, but if it is, you wont even be able to use a 128 usb flash drive as previously suggested.
i can confirm that a 32gb fat32 usb flash drive works, used with my sandisk cruiser 32
For portability the Seagate wireless drive would work.
http://www.amazon.com/Seagate-Satellite-Wireless-Storage-STBF500101-Black/dp/B004Z0S7K6
Using a powered hub will work just fine with portable hard drives. I have a 500GB Seagate that works very well
The USB 2.0 spec can only handle supplying 100mA x 5. So 500mA draw us the max it can supply to any drive. I don't know of any drives that are that low, might as well use a flash drive or SD card.

Hosts are actually not required to supply 500 mA even. They are required to supply 100, and may negotiate up to 500 during device enumeration.
PCs that don't support 500 are extremely rare, but mobile devices with OTG are a different story - many are limited to 100. This seems to include our device.
2.5" spinning hard drives that use less than 500 can be found. Less than 100 is not possible.
As to the 32GB limit - I have no idea why that's in the flyer, other than maybe the fact that it's VERY rare to see drives above this size formatted as FAT since Windows refuses to format drives of this size as FAT.
I have a 120GB WD external drive that works fine on my netbook (single USB port cable) I'll have to pick up a USB adapter and try it.
IIRC as the size (GB) of the drive goes up so does it's power draw.
Has anybody tried a 1.8" drive from an MP3 player?
Power consumption
Start 1.8W (max.)
Seek 0.9W (typ.)
Read/Write 0.8W (typ.)
Low power Idle 0.3W (typ.)
Stand-by 0.1W (typ.)
Though I suppose this Thread is kinda dead...I'd still like to know if there is a way to connect harddrives bigger than 32GB (and to format a Fat32 driver bigger than 32GB). Wish to stream media from my tablet to the PS3 and other players via Skifta...but I don't want to buy harddrives randomly, hoping they will work.
Tried with different USB Drives I have at home, but none works (well, NTFS of course).
Has anyone tried a bigger driver via powered USB Hub yet?
Or 64GB Sticks etc?
Cheers,

Sounds awesome! So, I suppose any powered hub works. Did you format the HD in any specific way or by the help of some fancy software (just wondering as I think Fat32 cannot be formatted under Win7 if the harddisk exceeded size x) ?
Thanks

If your tab is rooted you can get "usb mass storage otg" from the market which support your ntfs formatted drives no need for fat 32 crap anymore!

So it's true, you actually have to format your 500GB drive as FAT32 to get it working?
I guess this means no HD movies (files bigger than 4 GB) right?

Hi all,
What is the fastest way to transfer files to the Galaxy 10.1? I need to put approximately 2 GB in folders directly on the /sdcard/
I've tried Windows Explorer in Windows 7 and this looks like it's taking forever, and gives me no time estimate. Using Eclipse through Mac OS X seems more reasonable but I was wondering if there is a faster way through Windows 7, or if there's a faster way that I'm missing.

I just connected mine to windows 7 via the included USB cable and transferred a 1GB MKV over in 5 mins.
This is the oddest thing . . . I'm trying to transfer 2 GBs and it looks like it will take a day or more. I let it sit for at least 40 minutes, with very little movement on the progress bar and very slow file copy. Again, Windows 7 with the supplied cable.
Maybe driver issues? Had that problem with my sgs2, had to reinstall the drivers

Supposedly you can, however, in order to accomplish this, first the external HDD would have to be formatted in FAT32, or possibly EXT2/3/4; something which is natively recognized by the 7.7 Also, since the USB adapter only supplies a minimum amount of power (150mA I think), the HDD would have to be externally powered, either by its own power adapter, or by connecting through a powered USB hub (assuming the hub also has enough power to run the HDD).
It didn't recognize my external 500GB NTFS drive. I have a spare that I can format with FAT32 and will try that just for grins if I get a chance tomorrow. Otherwise, meh.
Update: I tried this with an external USB (self-powered) drive formatted in FAT32 and I got an error message saying "High Powered USB Device Connected: Cannot connect to...."
Not a big deal at all, really.
Just received a Corsair 128GB flash drive(Flash Voyager) today that I bought on Ebay for $45 . It was formatted to exFAT,which is Microsoft's newest file system,rather then FAT32 and allows files bigger then FAT32's 4GB max file size.
It works great on the 7.7 so exFAT is supported and even plays HD movies and lets you transfer files to the 7.7 and back.
I already had the 30pin to usb adapter.

Hey...
Just wanted to let everyone know that a USB A Male to A Female won't really help much...
For a matter of fact it won't do anything... it's like an elongation cable of 8cm which is crap!!! I guess I wanted to get a Female-Female but came out a bit of a retard...
I wanted to use the 30pin to USB cable, connect it to a Female-Female converter and shove my other USBs on the other end.... wondering if that will work....
Anyhow that's just my 2 dimes...
have a nice day,
SK.
exFat doesnt work on micro sd cards in built-in slot so I guess it won't work on any other medium...

I have tried three different external hard drive assemblies ( one desktop, two portable) all with external power applied. One of the portables always triggers the High Power Device shutoff. So I think it depends on the drive box interface electronics.

I've tried switching to my cable for my Evo but it didn't make much of a difference. The file is about 200mb, nothing huge... For now I'm ejecting the microsd and using a usb card reader but its pretty irritating.
I uploaded 60 Mb and 70 Mb video files fast, but when tried to transfer lot of pictures with all small size, the transfer almost took hours, so I guess the transfer of a big file will do fine, but for lot of small files, will take longer.
What I haven't tried is thru wifi transfer, will update later.
I find it hard to believe that everyone else has the same transfer speeds. Is it possible that its my nook?

You're not the only one - same goes for me 16GB rooted. I mean slow is putting it nicely. It would top out at 2/3 MB/s and fall way below 700kb - eventually settling in at 40-80kb/s. 5 days to transfer 10GB! Now I don't even bother. Just take the card out and put it in my card reader on the PC and transfer. I couldn't do this while I was on holiday however with a laptop with no SD card slot, so it was extremely frustrating.
Same here , but normaly my speed is about 40-80kbit. It takes ages to copy something

Define something else. Usually the only thing I have running in the background is andchat.
not sure if this will make a difference but there is an app on the market.. sd card speed booster (or something.. search it) i changed the value from 128 to 1024.. now getting write speed of ~10Mbps while transferring big files via stock cable..
btw i am on cm7.. and i also use teracopy for windows..
Oh yes forgot to mention i have 16gb class10 transcend microsd (ultimate) card
Haha, I only have a class 4 sd card. So that can be some of the issue. I also have started using SwiFTP. I get around 2-3 MB/s transfers with it and I don't have to unplug my nook cable from the wall. So it's a win win sort of thing now.
Same problem. Even if I use the Wifi transfer mode and put data in nook's internal memory or the sd card, the speed never goes beyond 3mbps. :-/

And then one micro sd card in an sd card adapter to put in the sd card slot. :3
This thing makes no sense. It's great yeah, but it's weird, it can have three flash drives or usb devices running at once, but when it comes to cards of any kind, you can only use one at a time, even if one is in a usb adapter, it still won't allow two.

Sorry, just came across this post. Here are several methods I use; a 128Gb Sandisk USB 3 thumb drive [http://a.co/9OVzdu5 ] and a USB 3 OTA adapter [http://a.co/jfMs2Yq ] along with the 128gb micro card in the device. If you need terabytes, get a wireless battery powered portable hard drive [http://a.co/fzM9ZPi], it works on mine. I also had a spare 240gb mSATA card from when I replaced my laptop drive. I bought a case for it and use that - the tablet has enough power to use it. Finally, I have connected a self-powered 2 Tb desktop drive with good results via the OTG cable. It just takes a while when opening your file explorer. Last, but not least, you can connect to your NAS via WiFi [ I use QNAP, and have accessed it from everywhere that I've visited that had good inet speeds via the QNAP apps]
Do you have more info on QNAP? Where to get it for instance? Is it in the Play Store?
