FAQ
What devices are compatible with this SanDisk Extreme microSDXC card?
This card is compatible with any device that supports microSDXC cards, including smartphones, tablets, action cameras, drones, handheld gaming consoles, and digital cameras. The UHS-I interface and microSDXC format ensure broad compatibility across modern mobile devices that accept high-capacity memory cards.
What does the V30 video speed class rating mean for my usage?
The V30 rating guarantees minimum sustained write speed of 30 MB/s, which is sufficient for recording 4K video at standard frame rates and high-bitrate 1080p video. This ensures smooth video capture without dropped frames or recording interruptions, making it suitable for action cameras, drones, and cameras that record high-resolution video to microSD cards.
How does the A2 application performance class benefit me?
The A2 classification indicates optimized random read and write performance for running applications directly from the card. With minimum random read of 4000 IOPS and random write of 2000 IOPS, this card reduces application loading times and improves responsiveness when used with Android's Adoptable Storage feature or similar technologies that allow running apps from external storage.
Is this card suitable for continuous video recording?
Yes, the Class 3/U3 rating and V30 certification ensure sustained write performance of at least 30 MB/s, which supports continuous recording of high-resolution video. The card maintains consistent performance during extended recording sessions, making it reliable for surveillance cameras, dash cams, and other devices that record video continuously to microSD storage.
What is the difference between maximum speed and sustained speed?
Maximum speed (190 MB/s read, 130 MB/s write) represents peak performance under ideal conditions for burst transfers. Sustained speed refers to consistent performance maintained over extended periods, which is guaranteed by the Class 3/U3 rating at minimum 30 MB/s. The card delivers both high peak speeds for quick file transfers and reliable sustained speeds for continuous recording scenarios.
How does this 1 TB capacity compare to other storage options?
At 1 TB, this microSDXC card offers one of the highest capacities available in the microSD form factor. It provides substantial storage for extensive media libraries, large game collections, or professional video projects while maintaining the compact size advantages of microSD cards. This capacity eliminates the need for frequent file management or carrying multiple lower-capacity cards for mobile workflows.
