The real confusion to me oi when they quote e.g. 150x when it fact the read/write is around 20x
The 4x I quoted meant the actual read/write speed, which was at one time shown on the Kingston site for their standard cards.
However, two different cards showing 160x could be different read/write speeds.
A friend suggested some time back that maybe the .e.g. 160x means 160 Mb. Divide by 8 to get 20MB. It appears to work it a lot of cases but not all.
Until it is standardised confusion will reign and I'll stick with Kingston. :D |
We've been discussing this in another topic. In it I was told:
| Quote: | | There are different speed grades available which are measured with the same system as CD-ROMs, in multiples of 150 kB/s. Basic cards transfer data up to six times the data rate of the standard CD-ROM speed (900 kB/s, vs. 150 kB/s). High-speed cards are made with higher data transfer rates like 66x (10 MB/s), and high-end cards have speeds of 150x or higher. |
So your x4 speed cards sound far too slow! |

|

Hi, has anyone actually found a 4G SD card that works in TTOne V2 ?
Please only reply with knowledge/use of TTONE regional new edition (UK)V2 as it may save confusion, I have spent all day with TT Support on the phone (UK) to no avail and despite them saying as long as the SD card has a min speed req of 10mb/s there are no known issues, and further to checking the new card in other devices which works ok, I can`t get my TT to recognise the card, even with the TT software installed via card reader/writer,(which also proves no fault with the card itself) TT Support official line is a 4G SD inc SDHC should work...and just say return it for a replacement card !!
I say whats the point if it is not going to work....!! very frustrating and way too little info available....is there a guide or any written tech report to help resolve this problem..anyone ?
to Clarify: my new 4G card is:SDHC by Integral (Toshiba)
Plain English Apreciated 
Thanks,
Hooty.

| Several posts on this forum say that only 4GB cards that are NOT SDHC will work on TomToms (upto and including the ONE XL). Try a search for "SDHC" in this part of the forum. It gives 9 hits and the third one down suggests 150x Transcend or Topram have been reported to work. |

Is 1 Gb big enough?
What brands do you guys actually recommend and what speed?
Thanks |
1GB card with W&E is about 925MB then you will need the tomtom software and the say speed camera's and voice warnings and if you go for the WE&CE that is 1.7GB so you will need at least 2GB card then |
Wow.....
What size was shipped with my TT?Is it a 2 GB?

The best way is to plug it into the PC and see what space is used and what space is free and put the two together.

The one supplied with a TT One Europe would have been 1GB
So there's room for the WE map, the TomTom software, the PGPSW speedcams and voice warnings. |

Sandisk Ultra III 2Gb 16.99£ www.mymemory.co.uk Not related to them in any way, just a happy, satisfied customer, plus they are QUICK on delivery. Enjoy..
PS TTOne Western Europe, Speed cams (Pocket GPS and TomTom), Plus a number of voices (personalised as well), uses about 950Mb, and 1Gb was sufficient.
