Good News 16GB SDHC Works

Good news everyone..

My Transcend 16GB Class 6 SDHC memory card came in the post this morning, I switched on the One Inserted the 16Gb card in to the left hand side and after a few seconds I was informed that "expansion was upgraded successfully" and i now have 17.1GB free

 

Great news! Are you running Linpus?

 

Yep!

Still running Linpus until Ubuntu is good to go

 

Oh! Awesome!

I always thought that the AA1 could only support 8GB max in either SD Card slot

how much are 16GB SD cards?

 

This expansion is a RAM expansion or a "disk" expansion?

 

it would be disk expansion he is talking about.

 

Thats a great news!!! Now im really curious for the 32GB sdhc cards.

 

and what about the speed?
does it extremely differ to the original SSD?

 

Is this the card that you purchased? I want to get one, it is seems to be around 50 bux online.

That's the one I purchased

 

This is great news! The One is Unbeatable! I wonder if it would work with 32G... Hope they get 64G cards soon out!Or maybe 128! (Demonical laughter...) :twisted:

 

32 gigs is the maximum for SDHC

 

They are out there, but they are fairly expensive. This one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PNY-OPTIMA-32GB-S ... .m63.l1177 (sorry about the absudly long URL) is $172. Still, this is about $40 cheaper than there were only a fortnight ago. By my calculations, at that rate in about two months they will only cost $8

So far I have only seen class 4 32GB SDHC cards whereas lots of the 16GB are class 6.

 

at this rate, by the time i get my AA1.

i could get 2 32gb sd cards (class 6) without impacting my wallet... too much

 

Hi,
Has someone apart from pinchez tried expanding the disk with a 16gb sdhc? I'd like to see more evidence (dont feel bad :roll: )

Thanks

 

i just purchased an 8gb this morning and successfully upgraded the onboard hd...problem is, whenever i switch to advanced mode in file manager the sd i added becomes a separate drive...i dunno if this is a problem or should i just stick to beginner's mode...i'm not really a linux savvy person and in fact i'm barely a week into it so any comments or suggestions will be greatly appreciated...thanks in advance

 

Yes, and one more thing, when you expand the space with for example a 8gb, it should join with the main drive, but does this happen with Win XP installed or just with this Linpus Linux version?

 

just a feature for linpus...xp sees the left side as another removable drive

 

i was supposed to buy a 16g sdhc but it costs (around 75$) just about the same as an 80g portable drive here in the philippines so i think i'll buy the portadrive next and upgrade to 16g sd if i'll have the bucks to spare

 

16gb about £33
32gb about £99
