Has anyone tested the ACTUAL capacity... what were the results??

Based on normal temps actual usable capacity should be around 18,000mAh. All these packs suffer from losses both recharging and discharging. So a 12,000mAh pack yields actual storage of 9500mAh etc.

I ran it through two cycles and got 17K and almost 20K out of it. I charged a smart phone and Ipod and Gopro repeatedly over maybe a week each cycle. Considering some expected loss in transfer, that's pretty dang good.

Even though it's a different capacity as shown in video, it's still the same form factor (physical size).http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOTaBrrlJYQ

Sorry, haven't seen anything definitive about the capacity of the motherboard/chipset. To my knowledge, 8GB is the max you can order for a new one. Anything beyond that would involve the brave process of opening the thing up.

You likely already figured it out by now but for others searching for answers it more likely than not as it should average about 119gb of data. I did have a pny turbo that had 126gb of data but when encountered errors with it the represenative told me 128 drives average between 115-119gb of data so is likely that one was corrupted. . .

I use it as memory expansion on my laptop - I currently have 100gb active data on it - it is convenient to move primary data between my two laptops. I have been told that it is possible to exceed the read/write capacity of the device (wear it out electronically); but it still works ine in my application.

The capacity seems good, I use them for a garage opener. I had them tested for capacity at Batteries Plus and they said they were full to capacity. If you have any other questions I suggest you contact the seller.

From my testing on 2 units these are really 8GB faked to read as 256GB. Formating does not matter, these are FRAUDS!

I dont know the true capacity, you would need to ask the manufacturer? I am currently pushing 1200amps with no heating up if that helps?

I've tried 32 Gb and it works, and I've read, and the comments below say 64 Gb works too.

Right now I have on one of mine, 13.9GB of total usable space (the other 2.1BG takes up the operating system). I currently have 4.35GB of free space left open. The other part is filled up with the following content: That includes 113 full albums averaging between 6 to 15 songs per album using 4.40GB of space and 59 music videos that is using 5.12GB of the storage space. The music videos are assorted sizes form 3.10MB to 177MB. I am always adding and removing songs and videos depending upon what style of music I'm into at the time. It's all drag and drop when you sync it to the player in your pc so moving things around is easy. I always try to leave at least 1 or more GB of free space open so that the music videos don't get jerky. I own more than one of these and it's really more about having not running out of battery before I can get back to recharge. Music uses a lot less battery, but the videos can wear down the battery pretty fast. These are small and very portable and I use them plugged into the car stereo for road trip music playlists and while waiting around in long lines, etc. at sci-fi conventions where it's not easy to get back to the room to recharge. Probably TMI but I hope this helps you in some way!

I am surprised that Some users report capacity-related issues. I purchased a Transcend SDHC Class 10 32G card that I had to format using the camera build-in menu for a correct initialization. It has been working fine since, save a reformatting from time to time when it is not recognized anymore. I would advise to avoid low capacity cards as the same disk Sectors will be Constantly written over, thus faster degrading the card.

I've heard yes. However, it takes 32 gig - not much room to actually run any other programs or store files once all is said and done. I didn't get a chance to find out because mine died about 2 weeks ago. Working off a laptop until I decide what to do. Not sure I'm blaming ASUS for that one as I go through machines very fast, lucky if I get 2 years out of anything...

about 6gb of the total capacity is used for the OS and other apps, the rest is free space. source: I own one.

the board has physical room for two of these. the pc originally had 512 that took up half the space . I installed a 1GB in one half. It worked. then I bought this amazon and installed it in the other half when I kept getting virtual memeory prompts again afte a few months. To noeffect, except that the pc shows it as having two GB installed. I de-installed wverything that eats RAM and I still can't go ten minutes past strtup without geting virtual memory message . I check the capacity and it stil shows plenty, under sixty percent in use when the messge pops up.

The capacity is intentionally not stated. This makes this product unacceptable.

I never measured the capacity as I have it set up with the drain hose emptying into the sump pump in the basement. I just turn it on and forget about it. It works very well.
