PNY Elite Performance 32GB High Speed SDHC Class 10 UHS-1 Up to 90MB/sec Flash Card - P-SDH32U1H-GE

CUSTOMER REVIEW



This memory card is part of the new line of memory cards aimed at the serious professional, hobbyist or tech enthusiast.



The card is made in Japan. Lifetime Limited Warranty in the USA.



I use a Transcend USB 3.0 Super Speed Multi-Card Reader for SD/SDHC/SDXC/MS/CF Cards (TS-RDF8K) that is connected to my USB 3.0 slot for a Read/Write test.



Also, testing with a IOGEAR USB 2.0 Hub and 45-in-1 Card Reader GUH287 (Black) for USB 2.0 slot Read/Write test.



I used a program that writes a 500MB file 5 times and averages the results

(coming soon, currently lent out).



The Sandisk Extreme is still an UHS-1 Card and I just wanted to include it until my extreme pro is back in my hands.



The key thing about the speed (transfer rate from memory card to computer) is that you really need USB 3.0 in order to see those fast transfer speed numbers. As for electronic devices, if the devices are UHS-1 compatible you should be able to see the benefits. In some cases like DSLRs, the write to card is limited by the buffer or the memory slot unit. Be back in a few months, testing it to see if it can handle photography gigs with my D600.
