Transcend 8 GB Class 6 SDHC Flash Memory Card TS8GSDHC6

On December 18th 2010 I ordered a Transcend 8 GB Class 6 SDHC Flash Memory Card TS8GSDHC6 as an addition to a Nikon Coolpix S1000pj camera I ordered as a Christmas gift for my future spouse. At the time 8GB was a pretty decent amount of storage. I’ve used this card in several cameras over the years and it’s currently being used in a toy digital camera my 4 year old uses. In the 6 years this card has been used I’ve never had one failure.Seller: Amazon.com LLCCondition: NewPurchase price: $13.91

A very good memory card, but limited storage by modern standards

This is a good memory card. I don’t know a lot about the technology that goes into this memory card, or write speeds, or things like that, but this card was and continues to be a good investment (I’ve had it for many years). You can feel confident buying this memory card and know that it will have an excellent lifespan.That said, if I was buying a memory card today, I can easily find one with quadruple or more the memory storage and at a similar price point. Given that, you really should invest in a memory card with a larger capacity than this 8GB card.

It Works Well As A ReadyBoost Drive

It works, this is not the fastest card but at less I never get any picture file corruption issue while using it. Its write speed is only 6 MB/s. Since the capacity of this card is so small, now I am using this SD card as a ReadyBoost driver on my laptop. ReadyBoost was develop by Microsoft Window, it uses the available space on the memory card as an external RAM to speed up the system. You can activate ReadyBoost by right click on the SD card, go to properties and then select ReadyBoost.

Very hard card to find today. No brick mortar stores have this card anymore.

Very glad I could find this 7 year old card. Best Buy, Microcenter even the smallest mom and pop computer stores that usually have the old stuff don’t even have this CLASS 6 card I needed for my Canon HF S100. I lost my class 6 card and it was tough to find another until I came to Amazon!!!!! It does all it is suppose to do for me to record HD video at 24mbps when for a while I was stuck using a class 4 card at only 15mbps. That extra mbps helped greatly in definition.

Epic Fail, Really…

Yes, I am another one of those suckers that didn’t pay attention to the one star reviews for this item. I wanted to save a few bucks. I got this Transcend SDHC card for a Fuji HS10 camera and took several hundred photos with it. I really wanted to test it. It worked fine. For a while.Then, at a conference, after I had taken about 300 photos with it, mostly of slide presentations, a major glitch happened. I had accidentally hit the record video button on the camera, and so I moved to delete this unwanted video. Now, I had done this “delete” function a number of times on the HS10 camera, and never had a problem. There is no way on the HS10 to accidentally delete ALL of your photos all at once with this delete button (you can do that only if you go through the main menu and activate the “format” function).As soon as this video got deleted, this card decided that the rest of the stored photos, some 300 of them, also no longer existed.Bummer. Fortunately the great Amazon 30-day warranty was still in effect, and I had saved the packaging. I ordered a Sandisk SDHC 30Mb/sec card (which does not run much faster on the HS10, by the way). Yesterday, the Sandisk card arrived, and so I sent this Transcend card back to Amazon today for a refund.If you look at all the Amazon reviews, about 20% of the reviews (one star to three star) make some comment about the unreliability of this Transcend card. Can you believe that Amazon actually sells this thing? Just think, what if 20% of one brand of new cars sold in this country stopped running days to months after the purchase? Would anybody sell those cars still?Now, the Sandisk card is about 2.5 times more expensive than this card, so I’ll be REALLY upset if it starts to misbehave also.READ MORE

Transcend 4 GB Class 6 SDHC TS4GSDHC6 use with 550D / T2i

First of all, I use these SDHC cards with a Canon DSLR - pictures and ⁷²⁰⁄₁₀₈₀ video.I own a Transcend 8GB SDHC class 10 and a Sandisk Extreme III 4GB class 6 prior to this purchasing this 4GB Transc. Class 6 SDHC card.I owned the sandisk extreme way before the transcend cards and it’s worked out perfectly.I purchased the 8GB transcend a few weeks ago because it was a class 10 for around $17 (not the best deal but I needed more memory). And it’s worked out alright and I haven’t really noticed a difference between the transcend cards and the sandisk. But after purchasing this 4GB card, and trying to use it to capture HD video, I’ve realized how much better the sandisk card is. The transcend cards are perfectly fine for use with taking pictures but my SLR keeps stopping the video because the Transcend cards can’t write fast enough.The sandisk a 20mbps read/write speed and I think that is pretty accurate of the actual read/write speed.The transcend 8GB, on the card, says 20mbps but it’s no where near that.. there is a forum on slickdeals talking all about how the card is actually 10 or 12. (which is where I was referred from)Now the transcend 4GB is only a class 6 so it’s definitely much slower and I can definitely tell it’s slower in actual practice. The only reason I purchased it was because I was told the class 6 cards are fine for use with HD video recording. I think that’s probably true, but only with better brands, like Sandisk.Pros: lots of space for cheapCons: not as truthful about the actual read/write speedsA lot slower than my other SDHC brandsAll that said, I’ll probably keep buying transcend cards for use with taking photos (not video) because I’ve never had a problem with them in that area. But my next few SDHC cards will be sandisk class 6 or higher because the transcend Class 10 cards aren’t even fast enough for recording HD video on my DSLR.

excellence

excellent product would buy again

Five Stars

Thank you

Not sure…

I ordered this because of good reviews it had on here but sad to say 2 months after buying it, it stopped working. Not sure if it’s worth the buy in my own opinion.
