Normally, what I do in this case I will use the SDXC slot in Viao instead. So this way you will have more speed. Cheers.

I run a 32-bit Vista system. Formatted a 4tb drive GTP/NTFS, connected via eSata and it is both fast and reliable. USB does not work.

Hello Alex, Even with slower class 4 SD card still generated fast enough transfer rate (read/write) to play back a HD video. The one I used is SanDisk ultra 64GB class 10 I bought it from amazon, it work just fine. I have noted that way back when I downloaded more than a dozen of free apps from google play store based on rating and testing them to see which one work best and found out that many media (video) player program are in premature development stage, their playback are sluggish and freezing all the time, few others are just ok because they are too simple and lacks of features, but the only one I am interested is the MX player, my search ended and this MX player is the only one I using today on my Samsung s3 cellphone and my new Samsung tab 3 I just bought from amazon. regardless HD or SD the playback is flawlessly with this MX player. I think before you spend more money for faster SD card may be you should download and try this MX player to see if the poor video playback problem solved if not then switch to faster class10 SD memory card. Remember after you download and open the player for the first time, it may prompt to download CODE for the MX player to work properly. Once the player open, select a file you want to play them then go-to setting by select tool/setting/decoder and place check marks on all those check box that uses H/W+ decoder, then you are done and all of your video now should playback smoothly. By the way I had been using this MX player for the past 2 plus years until today. I hope this help and good luck!

Well, all 4 of ours work pretty well, albeit they are not stunningly fast. I did notice the performance really slows down after the first couple TB of small files. But I suspect that's due to Samba, and I wish I could get into the unit, O/S wise, to tune it

I was not able to achieve full SATA 3 speeds with mine. I'm not sure what the reason is, but it is possible that other expansion cards on the system are using all available PCI-e lanes. YMMV

I will test it tonight and see. Last time I checked though it performed at good speeds. But I am only using a 4700rpm drive so I may be maxing out the read/write on it anyways. But from my experience it performs a lot better then 2.0. Also another note is that if you plug this into a 3.0 port you don't need to use the extra USB cable for power. The 3.0 port can put out enough juice to power the whole thing. I didn't know this before I bought and honestly wasn't a big deal, but helpful to know now.

Read and download times are twice as fast on the new cards. That's only important if you are a professionalPhotographer downloading hundreds of images, or you shoot a lot of high speed sequence shots...like sports action. Orherwise save the money without losing capacity,

Unfortunately non-software that I have can test it and the hardware itself does not seems to be different physically but I will recommend it as it works good for burning at 6x and the time was 16 min as expected for this device class and if an optical go up from 16x then you maybe need SATA3 but currently it seems does not applies [16× 576 Mbit/s 72 MB/s] because SATA 2 3Gb/s is good up to ~ 290MB/s read and write vs. 6Gb/s is good up to ~ 600mb/s read / write.

Seems a bit slow compared to what I experience. I've found that using an SD card with a fast write speed (45mbps or higher) and turning off auto-image-review in the settings really helps to significantly speed up shot-to-shot time. I'd also recommend checking Sony's website for the latest firmware updates (can be found here: http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=NEX6&template_id=1&region_id=1&tab=download#/downloadTab). Hope this helps!

Use either SD or CF, but I recommend a fast card; at least 600x speeds. Manufacturer does matter, Lexar, Sandisk are two of the approved cards.

Write speeds for this card are a bit cryptic. As you said, they are not published by Lexar leaving only unofficial 3rd party speed tests. I can say that I use this card in a Canon EOS 7D without any problems.Beyond this bit of information, I can only quote Lexar's published read speeds of a minium of 150MB/s (or faster). Also this card can capture video streams at up to 20MB/s. Lexar Professional 1000x: http://www.lexar.com/products/lexar-professional-1000x-compactflash-card

I initially used the card as formatted (ExFat) but found that the data transfer speed was slower than advertised. I reformatted Mac OS Extended and found it to be much quicker.

I can"t get it to read my Extreme III 4 gb card either. Any Help? I have been to San Disc site and have the latest firmware Im told so how do I make it work? Sadly I have camaras with SD, xD, and CF so I was really likeing this reader until it wouldnt read my Extreme III card.

Dream Linux works sweet on this little guy too. seems a little faster than Ubuntu 8.10 just had to add a few things to get the webcam working. pretty easy thought with synaptic.

Just checked one of mine (using a great tool called "Crystal Disk Info". Great Tool, just choose "Custom install" {not express} and opt out of anything else, it's just bogus ads)So the speed says 5400RPM and it says 8Meg of flash (RAM). The actual internal hard drive is: wd10jmvw-11ajgs1 Look it up for more specs on the drive inside. Enjoy!

I am running two UHS-1 cards -SanDisk Ultra 64 GB MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-1 Memory I have not formally benchmarked them but transfer using a USB 3.0 port is much faster than a 2.0 port.

I agree it works well even with 4GB card. When I use external card reader to upload pics to the card and then I plug the card to the frame itself. Its weird that whan I use 2GB CF card I can upload pics via cable PC-FRAME but when I use SD card I have to use external reader.Anyway looks like it way to go by now. I also dont feel secure to update to the firmware that is older than what I curently have and hope that upcoming 10" model wont have such issues.Thanx for reply.
