GOt a micro-SD from Wish and - IT WORKS!
-
Sounds like you could fit an awful lot of eggs in that basket.
Well, my Samsung S9+ specs say that it can only support 400GB SD card, so maybe my tablet can use all of it :-D But the testing so far looks good.

Been getting inundated with ads from wish.com, so I thought I would give them a chance. Ordered a 1.0TB micro SD ($6.00!) just to see what would happen. Took about two weeks (as advertised), and I put it in my test machine (no internet access and Windows 7 VM) and by golly! it actually worked! Running stress and read/write tests now but it may actually be useful. Now I have to see if my tablet (and/or phone) can use a 1TB SD card

A 1TB SD for $6? :omg: I'm an untrusting soul, so I'd suspect the offer myself - last time I didn't, I got a uSD that reported as 32GB, but which only had 1GB. Formatted OK, worked OK - until you exceeded 1GB at which point it started overwriting and corrupting everything. That's too cheap: if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Once in a while I see a camera or something that says it supports "up tp 32GB" (or whatever)… why is there a maximum? Shouldn't it use whatever I give it?

That's what I thought, so I have been running speed, stress and read/write tests on it for the past couple of hours - passed everything without problems. I will let the tests run all night to see what happens....

Okay, but I won't wear no stinkin' dunce cap ;P Besides, while it IS spam, I actually got what I ordered, and it meets the promises made.

A few years ago, when 64GB USB sticks were still considered unbelievably large, the company I worked for ordered a bunch of them from China for 1$ each with our company logo for some trade show. They held our marketing data just fine, but as soon as you tried to copy more than maybe 16GB, *every* one of them failed. Try to fill and read back that MicroSD card.

I tend to agree with Griff on this. I think the real test would be to try copying say, 500 gigs of data and see if it writes successfully (and if you could read it on another device).
That's the one!

Followup - stress tests have been running for over 9 hours, no problems. Copied enough DVD iso files to come close to filling it up, then delete and refill, no problems - iso files opened and ran (movies) correctly every time. Average read/write/verify is about 4MB/sec, which is livable for phone or tablets.

That's a fake hardware. & The OS copy you downloaded was also a distro from the maker. They trust on the time you would take to fill the 'real' 1GB inside. By the time you fill it, the hardware would fail and you would need to throw it off without any further probing. :rolleyes:

At 4MB/s, my simple reckoning says it will take 3 days flat-out to fill once. Have you been testing it long enough (9 hours won't do)?
Well, I was using a stress tester downloaded from GitHub, but it lied to me about transfer rates :( I wrote a quick PowerShell script to copy multiple images of iso files, and the rate stayed steady at about 1 min 30 sec per 1GB over 500GB of files. Plus, the microSD to USB thumb drive adapter that came with the SD card was very flakey, I switched to a microSD to miniSD adapter card and stuck it directly into my laptop. So far, I am satisfied with the SD card, we will see what time does to it.

So where can I get hold of a few dozen of those? I bought myself a new car, and didn't think much of the radio - the cheapest model would be good enough. No CD player. It could play music files from a USB stick, that's enough. So I went on vacation in my new car, with 2000+ sound files in a nice structured file tree, discovering that when I plugged in the USB stick, it would start playing track 1, then track 2, ... the entire file tre rolled out as one flat set of sound files. I can skip to the next track or go back to the previous one, but there is no way to go to the next artist (directory) or album (subdirectory). I cannot even go to track 1537, except by pressing "Next track" 1536 times. So for next summer vacation, I need maybe a hundred USB stick, each holding one album. (Maybe I could even put two or three albums of the same artist on one stick.) I can buy 32 GB stick at $5 a piece, but I don't want to spend more money to get the music out to the car than I paid for the CDs originally! If anyone comes across a surplus box of, say, 256 USB sticks of 512 Mbyte each, I'm interested!
