>>108475893 Pretty sure once you're successfully reading beyond half capacity you've got the real deal since SD scammers go for much lower capacities when faking something larger (for a 256GB I wouldn't expect anything more than 32GB of actual space if I were being scammed).
>>
>>108478809
Just because you get the advertised capacity doesn't mean it's a good card. Good cards have error correction enabled, shit cards are formatted with no error correction at all and/or are using bad flash which didn't pass QC and loses data after some days to weeks.

That I can understand, I won't dispute the fidelity of the flash.

The New World Order wants you to not be able to afford a SSD or RAM, so people in the future will be plugging 256GB SD cards into their laptops to use instead. 64GB of it will be taken up by your page file so that you can run 5 Electron apps at once. 128GB will be taken up by Windows 11 with Microsoft Copilot. You get 64GB to install up to 3 apps. All your other files will be automatically stored on the cloud (that'll be $19.99/month plus tip, goy).
This is the future you voted for

Non-MacBook laptops that have an SD slot - it's like having a USB drive that doesn't take up a USB port, and doesn't stick out of the port.
>>
>>108480426
Unironically stop buying flagships. SD slots are common on budget to midrange phones, though most these days put it on an extended SIM tray, sometimes as an either-or with a second SIM.
>>
>>108481175
If you bought a 256 GB card and it shows up as 232 GB or whatever, and all of it is writable, that's normal. Manufacturers count 1 KB=1000 bytes, 1 MB=1000 KB, etc. Windows counts 1 KB=1024 bytes, 1 MB=1024 KB, etc. Once you're up to GB or TB the difference compounds to something more noticeable. You also have some space lost to filesystem data structures.

If you bought a 256 GB card and only 32 GB is writable, that's a scam card that has been programmed to lie about its size. When you write past the end, either what you just wrote is lost, or it wraps around to the start and overwrites the partition table.

>SIM tray
It ain't 2022 anymore unc.. You should get your head checked, maybe you bumped it?
>>
>>108481298
Even flagship phones have SIM trays so long as you aren't an American iSheep. But flagships usually just have a SIM in it, with the idea that if you want a ton of storage you'd buy a model that has it. But budget phones will come with 128 or 256 GB and then give you a spot on the SIM tray to put a MicroSDXC if you need more space.
>>
>>108478715
On most phones it's faster to take out the SD card, put it in a reader, copy stuff over, and put it back in the phone, than to use a USB transfer cable to copy to the phone.

Also I see some irony here, Sony is one of the last phone makers that still puts SD cards on high end phones (and a phone jack too).
>>
>>108481331
I think he meant that newer phones come with eSIM, so you don't need to install SIM cards in them.
>>
>>108481353
How much are you transferring? Why not just use Syncthing?
>>
>>108481278
That doesn't have anything to do with how the goalpost clearly got shifted from "legit cards have the advertised capacity (+- unit conversion)" to "errr error connection and QC".
>>
>>108481425
>How much are you transferring?
music, 2-500MB per album. It's not even just the speed that bugs me, but the fact that it completely disconnects randomly after a few seconds and I have to physically reconnect the phone. I tried ADB browsers to copy data but it does the same thing.

>Why not just use Syncthing?
Because it's still faster to just take the SD card out, put it in my 'puter, and then I can not just copy but also check files for integrity (some of my sd cards randomly corrupted data, probably because I used cards that sat unused for 3 years).
>>
>>108481466
>Because it's still faster
Doubt.
>>
>>108481483
The phone itself can only write to the card at a few MB/s, basically the absolute minimum for camera to operate. With a USB3 card reader I can get 50-60 MB/s depending on the card.

Plus it would require faster wifi routers as well, and I only have the bare minimum wifi just so the phone can load websites, nothing more (I have a 2.5GbE local network cabled down).
>>
I bought a 128GB one from samsung and it broke itself and the rma process sucked so i emailed the "ceo" and "he" told them to send me a new one and it also broke. Their evo line was good, and this was their pro line so idk what happened.
>>
>>108481512
You're making a lot of excuses to not just try Syncthing.
I use it to sync a library of thousands of images between phone and PC and it just works.

syncthing is great
I use it to sync my meme folders from my computer and phone (where they are stored on the SD card)

With the Switch 2 using MicroSD express cards, hoping more consumer devices support it soon.

>You're making a lot of excuses to not just try Syncthing.

I already have something that works, I don't need to try using syncthing. If I'll have to switch to a phone with no SD card, maybe I'll give it a try.

They would to force people to use cloud storage. This provides data for AI training and better surveillance.
>>
>>108481861
Not if Samsung finds out about what Sony did so they copy them as well. Which is a shame since they have SD Express cards too.
>>
>>108481425
Does synthing respects the original creation date of the file?

I still have 16+ micro SD cards in sizes from 32gb to 512gb unused . I'm glad I purchased them between 2020 and 2023 when they were all dirt cheap. I also have barely used SSDs that have increased in price 3x since I bought them.

I don't think its gonna work at all. The places they try to build them are in areas where water is in high demand, and I doubt the state will go along with it when they have to buy water from another state and when that state says no because they are out of water, they will freak out and close them. Honestly I think the demand for these consumer grade ssd's and ram are fake too. I think they have enough but are lying to rise prices instead of creating anything of value.
