Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of A-DATA Class 6 SDHC Flash Memory Card
Customer Review: Bought two; one failed completely, one 'works' okay
Summary: 1 Stars
Basically the title says it all. I had one of these fail me while in Thailand after putting a few hundred pics on it. On the last day of a two-week trip it started saying everything was corrupt. With some recovery software I was able to get most images off then reformat the card, which worked for a few weeks. However, after putting a hundred more images on it and doing some in-camera editing I again lost all my photos. All it is good for now is using as storage for my digital frame, and it seems to be okay for that.
Second card will simply fail to write images on occasion, and sometimes it won't let me read them. I've used them both in 3 different D90s, 2 D40s, and a couple different point and shoots, and the problems are consistent across them all. Just look for a sandisk after-rebate deal and get a better card for the same money or less.
Customer Review: Cheap Plastic Materials
Summary: 1 Stars
The memory in this card worked great for me. The plastic however was the cheapest junk I have ever seen used on an sd card. I have quite extensive experience with sdhc cards and own around 10. This card is by far the worst quality build of any I have owned. The plastic began chipping and coming apart a couple months after owning it. I was not hard on the card and none of my other cards experienced this phenomenon. Right around the lock mechanism it broke and became unusable. When I looked closer there were several chips around the card as if the plastic had just started to crumble away. Needless to say I'm out what I paid for it because once that goes there is nothing you can do to fix it. Get a Transcend. I have owned several of these and all of them are still kicking strong. Some 4 years old.Customer Review: DO NOT BUY !!!
Summary: 1 Stars
I lost my Trascend Class 6 SD card and decided to save a few bucks and bought this card.
Big mistake... I expected a similar construction quality, similar materials etc etc, but it was not the case. I am used to extracting the card from my DSLR body and then inserting it into the SD slot of my laptop to transfer files. Never had a problem with any other card.
After doing this less than 4 or 5 times, very carefully, the plastic covering the electronics in this card broke in very small flakes and I got an error message from the camera that meant the end of the card's life. I had to throw it away and could not shoot pictures that day
I would definitely look elsewhere, be it at Kingston, Trascend or any other brand before buying this "Mickey Mouse" card.
Customer Review: The product works great (as long as you have a compatable high capacity reader)
Summary: 5 Stars
I found that not all high capacity readers could read the card. I bought the product for my nokia GPS so that we can play all our MP3's. The Nokia device read it just fine, however, I could not plug the device into my pc and get a drive letter assigned for this specific size sd card. Therefore, I did have trouble loading my files onto it for a while. After many attempts and many readers, I found that the SanDisk 12-in-1 USB 2.0 Card Reader from Staples was the only one that was able to read the card. There are probably other readers out there that work. I was just limited by the number of card readers I can actually purchase without going crazy. The card itself was fantastic. It worked very well with my Canon Powershot camera...even when downloading the pictures.Customer Review: Class 6 SD card rocks!
Summary: 5 Stars
I received this card several weeks ago after finding out that a 17 year old wrote a driver for my Palm TX to allow it to read SDHC cards. This card holds so much that I no longer need to carry a bunch of regular SD cards. The only problem that I encountered isn't the fault of the card. Almost all of my card readers, even the one in my HP printer, wouldn't read it because it is a High Capacity (SDHC) card. Once I located one compatible with SDHC cards, it has been great. The transfers are quick, considering that I mostly transfer complete movies to the card. I use CloneDVD Mobile to create Palm versions of my DVDs to play on the Palm TX. The movies are each about 500 megs, so I can carry a lot of movies on a 16 GB card. So far it has been a great purchase!
