So anyone using a 32gb card in their gtab? I saw a thread about a 16gb class 10 from fry for a good deal, but seriously, a class 10? I'd be happy with a 32 class 4/6. I don't see the need for class 10 yet, but was wonderin what brand 32gb you guys using out there?
Links to where you bought would be great

Anyone one of these will work... I know... I have tried all 3
http://www.frys.com/search?search_type=regular&sqxts=1&query_string=32gb+micro+sd&submit.x=0&submit.y=0&cat=0
I thought the limit was 16GB. Now I need to pick up a 32!
32 Gig
I am a newbie and I am confused. I thought the listed memory limit was
32GB, which meant 16 internal and 16 external---so is the 32GB limit for the external, which means 16 internal and 32 external?

Yes until a bigger SD card comes out
wonder if there's a size limit for USB memory. I have 32gb soldered in place internally. Hope I don't run into trouble in the future when I bump that up to 64gb or even 128gb
Lets see you make a 32GB card work in an IPAD2.
Micro SDcard - What goes on it?
I'm sure this is a "stupid" question from a newbie...
Last week I installed VEGAn 5.1.1 to the internal SDcard successfully using the instructions (thank you), because at the time I didn't have a micro SDcard. Now I do.
Should I re-install everything (CWM and VEGAn) to the SDcard or leave the card available for something else?
If I leave the installations on the internal SDcard, what will the micro SDcard be used for?
Thanks for your patience!
I bought a class 2 32gb Kingston on ebay for $43. It worked fine for me.
External card erasures
Has anybody had any problems losing data on the external card? I'm installing some movies on a 16G external card, and I've lost the data several times now.
It appears to lose the data when I mount/unmount the internal card for PC access (i.e. when I cable to my computer for file transfer). It seems something in the mount/unmount of the internal card corrupts the external card. I suppose a workaround would be to always remove the external card before cabling, but I shouldn't have to do that, should I?
I'm running VEGAn B5.1 if it matters.

Yes, it is a known problem. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=895340
I put all of my music onto the SD card, as well as copying my backups there. (I use titanium backup, which makes a copy into the /sdcard directory, and then I copy it to the external card manually)
I have loaded a bunch of apps on my machine, and am no where near using up the internal memory, so I keep all the apps there. The one thing I am not doing right now is connecting to my work exchange server. I get a lot of email attachments from that channel, so I may use the external card as storage for email attachments, but I do not really need to do that right now.

USB, probably not. I don't know for sure, but probably the limitation will be FAT32. I'm not aware of gTab has NTFS modules, so that's probably going to be the limit for USB, or perhaps there is a 48bit addressing built into the hardware/kernel, then approx 137GB is a limit. Maybe somebody could try to hook up a harddrive into USB and see. But as for the SD card, there is an SD spec.
SD max limit = 4GB
SDHC max limit = 32GB
SDXC max limit = 2TB
generally speaking while there is a 4GB SD card, the implementation of 4GB SD card is spotty at best and some require you to have certain format to work, otherwise the card sometime fail to read/write. So, you won't see much of it, 2GB SD usually be the norm. As far as SDXC goes, it's fairly new, some SDHC controller do support it, but many don't. The pin for all of them are the same so they are backward compatible. I would generally avoid choosing random 4GB SD or 32GB SDHC. Do your research extensively on those card otherwise they may not work w/ your device.

16 internal 32 external minimum 64gb best IT says that in the manual on line. Right now 64gbSDHC are not being made. The manufactures have reserved that for SDHX. I rooted mine to ClocWork and TNT lite added a class 10 32gb SDHC. Have also formatted a Seagate 500GB GO Flex HDD usb 2.0 to Fat 32 496 GB and I load my Movies that are converted to mpeg 3 so I can carry it to work on slow days. I did all this because the stock rom/root kept dropping files and losing apps. I attached a full size media keyboard from Dell that has 2 Usb ports and it works fine also. Mouse did not. It is all carried in a case with a keyboard I got from Amazon. I just LOVE IT.

Actually, that is a decent price for 32GB. Average retail is upwards of $60.
A question for all you TFP owners, I just bought mine and am loving it with ViperMOD's root. My question is, does it accept 64 GB MicroSDXCs or SDXCs.
I'd love to put all my MLP Episodes as well as other movies on an SDXC, or would you recommend just using a portable HDD? (I have a 1 TB USB 3.0 (but it's backward compatible to 2.0)).

Im using a 64gb SDXC full sized card on my keyboard and another 32gb sdhc microsd which is always in my tablet. If you do choose to use a SD card solution i recommend you using a card reader to transfer files as the computer to keyboard is really slow.

you have just opened up brand new possibilities for me! how are you liking the speeds of the 64gb from dock to tablet? you get a thanks, kind sir/ma'am/beast?
The speeds are fine if your just watching a movie, but the time it takes to transfer files is hella slow. Which is why I recommended you to use a card reader.
Does the prime also accept 64GB microSD SDXC UHS-I?
I've got an 32gb micro sdxc in mine. I had to reformat it on my Ubuntu laptop using Gparted because FAT32 can't handle files over 4GB. First attempt, I formatted card as EXT3 but tablet wouldn't recognize it. Second attempt, I formatted card as NTFS, and it worked! Copied 9Gb mkv 1080p h.264 high profile movie and it plays! I also read on another board that an user confirmed that the new 128gb Lexar SDXC cards work in the dock's SD slot.

"Does the prime also accept 64GB microSD SDXC UHS-I?"
I use a ScanDisk Mobile Ultra 64GB micro SDXC -I. It was already preformatted with efat.
Takes hours to fill it up but movies are played with no lag or anything.
Thanks guys, just ordered a Lexar 128 GB SD and 64 GB MicroSD XC
Please be aware. 1 week ago i received 2 of my ScanDisk Mobile Ultra 64GB microSDXC cards that i ordered on Amazon. One of them was defected, none of the devices i tried using it on couldn't detect it at all. Amazon refunded me the money for it within a day and i ordered another one instead.
Now i have a question. Is it better to leave the ExFAT format of the card to use it with Prime tablet or it is better to format it to NTFS? I wonder which would have better speed in result, while they both support large files. Also which allocation unit size is optimal to have the best read/write speeds?

I don't think formatting affects the read/write speeds.
Look what i found:
http://blog.testfreaks.com/information/usb-flash-drive-comparison-part-2-fat32-vs-ntfs-vs-exfat/
"look at the SiSoft Sandra test, the best scores were achieved using ExFat, then FAT32 came in second and NTFS in last."
I have a microUSB to microSD / SD card converter that I just purchased for like $10. I tested a 64GB microSD card in it and it work just fine as USB storage. Now I'm wondering if a 128GB SD card would work.
Has anybody tried a 128 SD card as a USB storage device in a SGS3? Is the phone recognizing this storage dependent upon the external SD card converter / reader or the phone itself? I'd try myseld but I don't want to spend $150 only to find out that it doesn't work.

I think it will work....You mean a normal 128gb right?...It should work..No one thought a 64gb microXC would work on GB phones.and it did.
I believe the Galaxy S3 meets the hardware requirements for SDXC cards, so I would think it would work, but no guarantees.
I am curious to know, as I have a 32GB card now, so 128GB in a year or so will likely be my upgrade choice, if it works.
Remember that I'm talking about a 128 GB SD (NOT microSD) card used through a micro-USB to SD converter plugged in through the bottom of the phone. I'm NOT talking about a 128GB microSD through the back card slot, which doesn't yet exist.
I'm just thhinking this might be dependant upon the converter's ability to read a 128GB sd card, not so much the phone's, but I'm not sure.

Ah I see.
I'm not sure, then.
I guess no one has tried this yet, nor knows if reading a 128 GB SD card is dependant on the converter itself or the phone's USB mas storage recognition.
Guess it's gonna be a #$150 experiment then,

I didn't even know you could do that! So I'm guessing you are plugging the card reader in to the bottom charging port and are then able to copy files to and from it? That's the idea right? I mean it would be kind of silly to walk around with a card reader dangling from the bottom of the phone

...which is WAY cool. Like I said, a 64GB microSD card works fine, both diretly in the microSD slot on the adapter or in an SD card adapter plugged into the SD card slot. I have not tried an SD card over 32GB in the SD slot directly, because I don't have one.
Hey I was wondering what is the max size the tablet and dock can use. I have the tablet with a 16gb micro sd but today I am buying the dock and wanted to know if I could use my 1tb hard drive and also buy a 32gb sd card to use. Hopefully it can see and use 32 gb each card and I can have tons of space. I think I heard that usb mouse works too.

Hi guys, so I bought a micro sd class 10 for my G4 plus and I'd like to know if it's original and the speedy is right before using it on my phone.
Here is the test result:
Test finished without errors.
You can now delete the test files *.h2w or verify them again.
Writing speed: 13.9 MByte/s
Reading speed: 19.8 MByte/s
H2testw v1.4
Does it seem original for you? Thank you.

Class 10, UHS-1, U3 is the best choice with write and read speeds up to 90mb/s. A UHS-3 is faster than a UHS-1, but without being U3 you get up to 30mb/s.
