Customer Review: It Worked.
Summary: 3 Stars
Let me start by explaining my particular lack of knowledge of this technology. It is beyond my ability to comprehend how so much information can fit onto such a tiny card in the first place, so I feel as though I cannot do justice in describing its full potential as a useful device.
I cannot accurately rate the device because I have little to compare it to. However, I will say that, for the purpose for which it was purchased (extra storage for an audio player), the device has functioned as promised. It is for this reason that I give the item an overall review of three stars. Additional ratings follow below.
General Performance: 3/5
The device malfunctioned on my first attempt to use it, which immediately knocked it out of the running for anything less than dead-center average.
The malfunction occurred when my music software failed to sync properly with the card. Not being familiar with the error, I removed the MP3 player after stopping the sync, but the player had not finished "refreshing media". This caused an error which totally locked the entire system, forcing me to run down its battery to cause a reset.
Once I was able to reload the player, I used my computer's SD reader to format the SDHC card (the item up for review) before attempting another sync. With a $50 player and a $40 card on the line, it's fair to say frustration was high.
After repairing the error and formatting the card (a procedure which was never expressed to me as being necessary to the operation of the device), the software was able to sync properly, and the player responded normally.
Storage: 4/5
This card stores my entire collection of CDs, which easily numbers in the high 20s. Even though the player's internal memory (4GB) is still totally unused, the SDHC card has accepted my entire collection using only half its rated capacity. The only reason this rating did not achieve five stars is its inaccuracy. The device is listed at 16GB, and delivers only 14.5.
Value: 3/5
This rating could not be higher because prices are forever falling on any new technology. As newer cards come out, this one will get cheaper and cheaper over time. The rating is not lower because I felt that the price-per-gigabyte was not overly expensive (when compared to other cards). Any local store which sells these cards is trying to charge me $20+ for half the space. This is why I purchased the device from this seller.
Speed: 3/5
Again, I have to rate this attribute as average because I do not have enough experience with the technology to give it a fair assessment or comparison. I was neither impressed nor disappointed by its load, read, or write speed. It is entirely possible that other cards may respond faster or slower, depending on the purpose and application.
Durability: N/A
I did not rate this attribute because I have not owned the device long enough to assess its longevity.
Overall Rating: 3/5
I was satisfied with this purchase, and would acquire another card if I had enough music or other data to store on it. I would recommend this product to another buyer, but only if the information necessary to its proper use is supplied, either via seller communication or included documentation.
