More counterfeit flash memory from Amazon

Another counterfeit item from Amazon? I have a 50% failure rate on getting items that are obvious fakes. This card was sealed in the cardboard packaging, but cutting it open shows the plastic sleeve holding the card is sealed with a piece of scotch tape. The card itself barely gets ¹⁄₂ the rated rated speed on USB 3.0 ports with the right adapter. Other flash memory works correctly at rated speeds.Be careful and check your memory, commingled inventory means that Amazon can have fakes.

Excellent read speeds, write speeds ~28MB/s in the 128GB version.

I tested the 128gb capacity version of the PNY Elite microSDXC card. It provided read speeds above 90MB/s in benchmark tests in several USB 3.0 card readers. Sequential write speed was about 28MB/s. The card is rated UHS Speed Class 1 (U1) so it will maintain at least 10MB/s continuous write for video recording. It doesn’t have U3 so if your device requires that for 4K video you will need a different card.———————————————————————–CrystalDiskMark 3.0.3 x64 © 2007-2013 hiyohiyoCrystal Dew World : (…)———————————————————————–* MB/s = 1,000,000 byte/s [SATA/300 = 300,000,000 byte/s]Sequential Read : 94.799 MB/sSequential Write : 28.068 MB/sRandom Read 512KB : 85.719 MB/sRandom Write 512KB : 11.755 MB/sRandom Read 4KB (QD=1) : 5.328 MB/s [ 1300.8 IOPS]Random Write 4KB (QD=1) : 1.151 MB/s [ 281.0 IOPS]Random Read 4KB (QD=32) : 5.919 MB/s [ 1445.0 IOPS]Random Write 4KB (QD=32) : 1.209 MB/s [ 295.1 IOPS]Test : 1000 MB M: 0.0% (0.0/119.2 GB)Date : 2016/06/29 13:23:11OS : Windows 8.1 Pro 6.3 Build 9600

Impressed by PNY’s customer service..

Originally, I used this in two different smartphones. It failed under warranty and had to be replaced. The second card lasted about a month after warranty before it started creating problems with my phone and then froze up so that it indicates that it is write protected and cannot be reformatted or erased. Very disappointed in PNY. I thought they were supposed to be good quality, but I wasted a lot of money and could have lost a lot of files if I hadn’t backed up before it failed totally.After this initial review, PNY offered to exchange the card even though it was out of warranty. I am impressed by PNY’s customer service - I was not expecting them to pay attention to my concern, but the fact that they did is impressive. I still have not tested the card, but customer service enough to me to change the rating from 1 to 4.

Specs good, hopefully performance will match….

Listed specs indicated that this has a “up to 85MB/Sec ” which seems pretty good. Other pricier brand was “up to 90”. Just installed and my Moto Droid Z reported “this SD card seems slow, app performance may be degraded”.Will monitor performance and update this in a week or so…..Usual sealed SD card packaging which had to be basically destroyed to open, so not sure about return options……

This product works nicely even if Samsung tried so hard not to get it to work.

I ordered this for a Samsung G8. It doesn’t fit in the “proprietary” card device and samsung warns against using a “non samsung card”. BUT, I DID get it to work after some “fiddling”. This product works nicely even if Samsung tried so hard not to get it to work. I would’ve given a five star review, but the maker didn’t specify that Samsung devices would be difficult to just “insert and use”. Although, I suspect the maker might not have known this.

Great place to offload less-used documents, music, movies from your SSD

I purchased this in conjunction with a BASEQI aluminum microSD Adapter to expand the storage of my Macbook Pro. It has worked flawlessly. It’s not quite as fast as my SSD, but it’s a perfect repository for documents, music, etc. that frees up space on my primary drive.

Questionable origin, good sequential speeds, poor 4k speeds.

This review is for the 200gb PNY Elite MicroSD card, purchased this directly from Amazon (not a third party seller.) The first thing I do when purchasing any flash media these days is test integrity and check for fakes. It’s sad that we can’t purchase even from reputable dealers anymore without expecting a high chance of counterfeit media, but that’s our reality. I’ll include my test results below and let you judge this product for yourself.First test: Ran a Quick Size Test using fakeflashtest. Results were ok, so at least it seems to be the correct capacity. So far so good.Second test: Inspected card info using Chip Genius. No matching records found for the vendor or the part number, which is just slightly suspicious. If it were only the part number I wouldn’t be worried, since it’s possible that the 200gb version is just not in their database yet. It’s unlikely that PNY or its legitimate suppliers would not return a hit though, as they’re definitely not a new or unknown company.Third test: Formatted using a Galaxy S7 (the device intended to be used with it) and ran the app SD Insight. Origin unknown, Manufacturer unknown, OEM/Application ID is Barun Electronics. According to Google, Barun is a semiconductor manufacturer based in Korea. It’s possible that PNY sources their chips from them and doesn’t bother to change the manufacturer ID, but I wasn’t able to find any information that would confirm or deny this. The stamp on the packaging indicates it’s made in Korea, so at least that’s consistent.Fourth test: Popped it back into my computer (plugged directly into a Transcend USB 3.0 card reader in a USB 3.0 port) and ran CrystalDiskMark to test speeds. Sequential write was a solid 30.76 mb/s, but drops sharply after that.

For now I can only speculate on the questionable origin of this card, but what’s certain is it at least appears to be the correct size, and has very respectable sequential speeds but abysmal speeds at 4k.

I have used this in an enviroment of loading complete apk’s (android) including obb, data, never have had an app load slow!!!!!!

This is, hands down, the best 128GB sd card I have purchased including prior PNY 128GB cards! All of mine (over 6) have been 128GB, including Sandisk (which I have distanced…
