what just happened to my sd card?

[hallcp1019]

Lol I had a ton of media on the 16 gb don't think I could justify a 32 lol ...

The only reason I'd bump up to 32GB is because I like to put movies on my SD card and those still hit about 2GB each even compressed.  Although there is speculation that the Targa will ship with a 32GB running atleast class 6.

Brand is a HUGE issue.  The only ones I would go with currently are Sandisk, Sony, Kingston and Patriot.  There are a few others that are alright they just don't come to mind atm.  I would be VERY cautious about a $30 32gb class 10.   

Lexar is a brand to RUN AWAY from.

   I've tried PNY before, and it runs horrible. That's what your problem was, the brand. You should really try to go for Sandisk. I don't know why it matters, but it does. I'm trying to find a 32gb Sandisk class 6 somewhere. I'd love to get a class 10, but I've heard back things about class 10s in Droids. I have another post asking about this..

I Was told a Long time ago from a Rep thats Known Me for 6 years Buy your SD Cards Were you Buy your Phones. He said the Sd Cards that we sell are Designed for the Cell phones We sell an the ones that a Discount store may not work even though it may look exaclly like the one we have here in our store. He also said if one of our sd cards do go bad We'll Cover it.  And you'll get another one at No Charge. So i've always bought my SD cards First at Alltel an Now Verizon. An i've had other Family member  that got Shafted by buying Sd cards at the Discount stores That just  Didnt Work an they couldn't return the card.  But they thougt they would save a few Bucks instead of going to Verizon like i told them to Do in the First Place.  Its always good to listen to Family or Friends. they Now Best.!

That was the first place I went, but they didn't have any 32 gb in stock and the rep acted like he could care less. I ordered a class 4 32gb on Amazon last night

Last night I went to these places.. In order... Verizon, Office Depot, Wal Mart, Best Buy, and Target. NOBODY had 32 gb Sandisk cards in stock..

Oh, when I asked the VZW rep at the store how much they were, he said "a lot"... I know they're not cheap. HOW much do they cost? He was hardly capable of keeping a train if thought. I never found out how much VOW sells them for....
