Title: Which micro sd card type 10 for Pono?
Post by: BrianKW on March 18, 2015, 11:18:12 am

Hello,
I would like to buy another card for the Pono.
I found these but they're listed as Ultra (I can't find one that looks like the card that came with the Pono)

Will any of these top three work in the link below and if yes...which one would work best?

You don't need super fast cards-- you're not watching videos straight off the card and even then, these would probably be fine.

I've happily used these  http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00M55C1I2/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

and these  http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00P3NMVGA/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I load them using pmw and a USB3 card-reader/writer (have to Add Device and select the card in pmw) and they load at about 19mps, whereas the pono loads at about 3.

Hello BrianKW,

You can purchase with or without the adapter, I use this card purchased from Amazon.com: SanDisk Ultra 64GB UHI-I/Class 10 Micro SDXC Memory Card Up to 48MB/s With Adapter- SDSDQUAN-064G-G4A [Newest Version].

Best,
Richard

Be careful and make sure you're buying a real microSD card and not a counterfeit. There are counterfeits out there.  Buy from a reputable dealer/store.  If the price is too good realize there may be a reason the price is lower cause the card might be a counterfeit. The counterfeit cards don't work and fake (lie about) their storage capacity.  Search google for more info about counterfeit microSD cards.
