4GB Micro SD Cards ? Are the too slow?

[sirius-c]

I purchased one of these (in the UK)

i rang the freephone number and bought over the phone (saved £5 too off the ebay price ;o)

It works fine.

Anyone know how you can revert back to a RAW file system, most mem cards come with this format and when you format in any device it removes/replaces with fat16 or 32.

hopefully the 8 gigs one will come out shortly

Advice please, anyone got one?

I have the Sandisk 4Gb MicroSDHC with the bundled Sandisk MicroMate USB adapter.

I copied a TomTom map file (124Mb) from, then back to the card.

Read time: 12 seconds
Write time: 24 seconds

It would appear than on a PC with USB2, the read/write speeds are approx 10Mb/sec read and 5Mb/sec write.

The read/write speeds using Nokia Mass Storage Mode and the Nokia USB cable are crap, so I am not going to trouble anyone with timings.

I see no reason why the N95 should not preform at least as well with the SDHC cards as it did with the previous UltraII MicroSD cards.
