Hi, when I long press the home button and choose Task manager->Storage, I see System storage (out of 1.97GB), USB storage (out of 11.07GB) and SD card (out of 14.83GB). The SD card is probably my sandisk 16GB sd card. What about USB storage? I suppose the System storage is the internal memory. Also, from an end user point of view, is the new SanDisk Extreme Pro as fast as the internal memory? Is it worth to buy it? Thanks.
The phone is manufactured with 16 GB of flash on it.
2 GB for the ROM
2 GB for apps
The rest (11.07 GB) as general storage
Then it has a MicroSD slot where you can add more storage.
The speed of the internal storage should be good, but I don't know how it is compared to a Sandisk extreme pro card.
I asked SanDisk. They said that they do not know if the Extreme Pro is compatible with the Galaxy Note. They told me to ask Samsung. Of course, Samsung is going to point back to SanDisk.

Anyone had any issues with Kingston memory? Specifically 2mb?
Or, would Sandisk be the best make?
I had a 1GB Kingston MicroSD and every time i opened my picture&Videos and into the SD card my TyNT Freezes and a softrest is a must....
Now i have a SD Micro and i have not had this problem YET (Crossing-Fingers)
for those s7-104 user here, what is the internal storage of s7-104? i have 175mb of internal tablet storage but in other site it says 4gb or 8gb i think is the internal storage. how come i can't access the other 7gb+ storage for other things like videos, music, etc.?
For data(install applications ) we have 170mb and as storage 8gb
is that 8gb built-in in our device or is it external? can't find that 8gb in my s7-104
Build on the tablet.
Where did you get your tablet? I remember one company in UK selling this tablet with no internal storage. The one sold in US by BestBuy had 8gb internal storage.
i think mine doesn't have 8gb built-in storage, that sucks
s7 - 105 have 8gb built in storage.
Hi I need more space for my duo 11 and the cheapest way i believe is to buy a micro sd card to increase the size(Don't know if i can swap my hard drive from 128gb to 256gb). I spotted this micro sd card which is pretty good but don't know if i can utilise it to its maximum speed. The card is "Samsung UHS-1 Class10 PRO Micro SD XC 64GB Memory Card", I know duo 11 supports SD XC but it also needs to support UHS-1 for it to use it up to its maximum speed.
On a side note it says
-Read Speed: Up to 70MB/s
-Write Speed: Up to 20MB/s
Does take mean if i transfer files out of the sd card it can go up to 70mb/s and if i want to transfer files from my hard drive to the sd card the transfer speed would be 20mb/s??
Thanks in advance!
That would be the correct speeds assuming all is perfect and no overhead.
You also need to verify that the reader in the Sony is not connected through USB 2.0 or you wouldn't see 70MB/sec reads, more along the lines of 30-35MB/sec.
The duo uses sd cards not microsd. You can use a microsd card with an adapter but a sd card will be cheaper.
I have a 256gb sd card in mine and it works but it's not particularly fast.

That would be the limiting factor as far as the SD card is concerned yes. Operating system overhead would slightly reduce that. Also there would be a limiting factor in what the hard drive read and write speeds are or memory stick or whatever it is the files are being transferred to and from.
I'm just trying to get a feel for how Samsung treats storage on their devices.
Do they consider the internal storage as both internal and SD Card storage on the device? So that \sdcard\ points to internal storage? Which would treat any inserted MicroSD like secondary storage that some programs might not use?
Or do they consider internal storage as only internal and \sdcard\ would only point to an inserted MicroSD?

They have internal SD (built in storage) and external SD.
External SD is not touched unless you indicate for it to be used specifically.
I like that Samsung continues to offer devices with a removable battery and MicroSD. This is a major factor for me.
I just wish the MicroSD could somehow be integrated with their internal storage. Since many apps may not be able to see the MicroSD. The apps would consider the internal storage to be SD space.

thats not a good idea, what if you had to remove the external sd card?

I'm using Data2SD with my Asus Transformer Infinity right now to have a 64GB data space (via SD card) and the internal 32GB as extra storage. I have not had to remove the card yet . And really even Data2Sd won't let me use the internal space on the device installing programs, just extra storage. But still its a good step.
Removing the card is not a concern, since I basically don't. If the card goes bad, rebuild things with a new card.
It would be great if the SGS4 gets a MOD like Data2SD. Then anyone who buys a 16GB version could get a 64GB MicroSD and turn it into a 64GB SGS4 . Same way we've turned our 32GB Asus Infinities into 64GB models, and our storage is even faster than the stock Asus internal storage :laugh: .
Oh, it's a good idea, it's soooo good .
I have a couple questions too if someone can please help:
1) What happens when you mount the device via USB. Can you mount either storage (internal or external sd)?
2) Can you easily place game files like GTA Vice City, music files, or Titanium/nandroid backups on the external?
Thanks!

1) they show up as separate drives
2) yes to. Everything except game files as the game would think you don't have the files and try to redownload them
Hello,
I first used a San Disk 32 gb card to use as the adoptable storage. It worked until it reached around 3 gb and then said it had no more storage available. I recently tried a Kingston 4 gb sd card that worked beautifully with no app problems, etc. However, I quickly ran out of storage. I purchased a PNY 32 gb card that worked for about the first week. Now, many of the apps say there is a problem and won't open. Also, when I try to switch an app to the sd card, it say's there is no space available, even though I have used less than 4 gb. Could it be the brand of SD Card? Should I buy and try a 16 gb card? I would really appreciate any help or guidance in getting my Nook Tab 7 to work properly with at least a 16 gb card. Thanks!

The quality and speed of the card will make a difference.
Myself I use SanDisk - just remember there are different levels.
Give this a try. Auto-formatting SDcard Link
I was pointed to, and have been testing / using it for about a month now on this device. There are some glitches, at least on this device. Some apps will just not work or will disappear. Others will revert back to true internal storage on update. Device or App related not sure.
It's trial and error on what needs to be internal and sudo internal. Migrating data to external helps but, still some apps require true internal storage.
