💫 Gold Transcend TS64GSDU3 64GB High Speed UHS-3 Flash Memory Card 95/60 MB/s Review

I ordered two 64GB versions for my Nikon D610 which has two SD card slots hoping for faster buffer clearing and backup -Security is done during recording. The cards have a noticeable speed improvement over my previous cards. The buffer clears fairly quickly, allowing me to do continuous high-speed RAW shooting, with the slowdown only appearing after 13-15 shots. Reading speeds also seem high - swiping through photos is faster, importing into Lightroom is reduced. So on the speed front…

I had a problem with my hard drive, couldn't use online recovery, and couldn't find anyone with a Thunderbolt Mac. I didn't feel like taking apart my Mac and using an adapter drive to try to recover my data, so I grabbed the fastest available XC SD card I could find, installed Yosemite on the card, and started from there to rebuild my internal hard drive . What I love most is that I can run my OS from this SD XC card, it's freaking fast! Ok, it would probably be better (and certainly faster) to

I needed a memory card that could handle enough write speeds for 4K video and my camera manufacturer recommended a U3 Speed card. Luckily, Transcend is releasing this inexpensive U3 card with a claimed 95MB/s read and 60MB/s write speed. I immediately ordered two cards for use in my Panasonic LX100. As soon as the cards arrived, I grabbed one and tested it in my UHS-enabled card reader (for best speed, your reader must be able to use UHS controllers). ). In short, I got write speeds on the card

On my Apple computer with USB 3, this card averaged 60MB/s write and 80MB/s read. I compared this to my 30MB/s SanDisk card where I averaged 20MB/s write and 23MB/s read. Before I got this card I used a SanDisk card to record video at 100MB/s and it worked fine because you need MB/s to record that. If you want to write 200 MB/s, you need 25 MB/s. None of that matters because this card is incredibly fast and very affordable. For those not very familiar with handling these cards, here is my…

I have an army of SD cards, some of which go back to the original standard. I bought two of these for a 4K camcorder and I'll admit they worked well as storage devices. Overall pretty easy to use as I don't deal with cameras every day. Some weekends, holidays, etc. One of the two Transcend cards has a habit of being locked in read-only mode when inserted into the card reader. It wasn't a big deal - I had to take the card out, unlock it with the slider, and insert it without the slider making…
