Juz bought Transcend SDXC Class 10

[baggiolee]

even though it's a class 10 64gb and max speed up to 25m/s. while tested on my nikon D7000, it is roughly about the same writing speed as my sandisk Ultra 2 16gb 15mb/s. (Shoot around 30s for both card). any1 know why?

no...it's slower than class 4 ultra 2...

Transcend SDXC Class10 (64gb)
20sec = 20 pics
60sec = 40 pics

Sandisk SDHC UltraII Class 4 (16gb)
20sec = 24 pics
60sec = 54 pics

I don't like Transcend... Never got good performance with them or Kingston. I prefer Sandisk or Lexar.

they r cheap though lol.

Im taking a stab here but could it be that your PC cannot support the high speed card?

i tested on my camera not pc. i suspect it's the camera compatibility issue even though it supports SDXC.

Test with h2testw for read and write performance?

When I passed Memory World just before CNY they had a special offer for Transcend. I have forgotten the prices but they were very, very low compared with the other better known brands.

I think u should compare transcend 64gb card with sandisk 64gb card. The card size may cause the diff.

juz realize my card reader may not be able to fully support SDXC since it's an old reader, even though it can read the data.

I also bought the Transcend Class-10 SDHC Ultimate Memory Card 4GB just for testing purposes found out that there is not much difference with the Sandisk 8GB Class 4 SDHC card that came with my D3100
