So far I’ve had no trouble with this card, but I am not happy with the product description which is incorrect. The current description reads:
“15MB/s Read/Write”
This is false. I was a bit disappointed when I saw on the item’s package that 15 MB/s only referred to read speeds, with only 9 MB/s write speeds. That’s still reasonably fast — although I’ve seen other reviews which state that when tested the cards do not reach those max values, but I haven’t tested mine.
Also, unclear from the description (and even the literature on the SanDisk site), is the fact that this is a Class 4 device. That is important to know for many devices such as HD camcorders, but not clearly indicated.

So every digital camera now a days does some sort of video shooting as well as still photography. With a 32gb card, I doubt that you will ever run out of space…however you should be aware that if the card goes bad you will have a lot more to lose.
32gb for less then $199 gives you the ability to store a lot of information and from what I am seeing, people are even using these to install operating systems and booting up from them. This is a techy type process but it is possible none the less and can be done.
Read/Write Speeds – In my tests I inserted the card into a reader into a usb port on my Macbook Pro laptop and used a utility to test the read/write speed. It is the same utility I would use to test a Hard drive. I came up with an average of about 16-17-/mb/s read and about 10mb/s for write.
It is a great card and works perfect….I paid a bit more for it when I bought it but it is GREAT to see Amazon dropping the price as market conditions change.

I recently purchased a high definition video camera that records on memory card only, which is what I prefer. I wanted the biggest card so I went for this one and it works perfectly. This card gets me a little over 4 hours of recording time on the highest quality setting on my camera.

SanDisk class 4 cards are among the best in terms of reliability. Read/write speeds are about what you’d expect, topping out at about 17mb read and 9.5mb writing, which is pretty solid for a class 4 card, but you can get a class-6 card for about the same price like this one: Transcend 32 GB SDHC Class 6 Flash Memory Card. The best thing about SanDisk is that in my experience their cards are very reliable. I’ve been using this card in my Dell Mini and it’s been flawless for storing audio and video files. The price on these keeps dropping; it’s pretty amazing that in less than a year you can get a 32gb card for what a 16gb card used to cost.

I bought this for my Kodak Zi8 video camera, 32gb is maximum it recognizes. Works perfect, fast card, no complaints.
