The biggest SD card available is only 2gb and most brands work without problems. I personally have used only SanDisk (standard model), no point of using the Ultra II or III models since there is no speed improvement and costs a lot more. Some users have tried 4gb RS MMC but there were too many mixed reactions here. I suggest you do a search as there are threads regarding this topic.
All SD cards I bought worked straight out of the box. There are instances that a card fis not recognized by the device if it was formatted from a PC using a card reader. Most of the time the problem lies in the card reader. There is also a possibility of formatting the SD card from the Magician.

DUAL SD card mod, connecting two SD cards at the same time

As the title says, I'd like to connect to memory SD cards at the same time to the device.
I've read spec pages, and it seems the device supports two SD's at once (moreover, the SANDISK wifi+memory SD wouldnt work otherwise).
However, I'm not sure how WM OS supports two memory cards at once. how do the cards mount (how does it work on the dell x50 which has both sd and CF for example) one card mounts to /storage card , and the other ?
also, any ideas about the pinouts ? an SD card/SDIO have 9 pins, but if I'd like to connect more then one, do I connect both to the same pins ?

Mini Sd card not recognized in my wizard

hi guys your forum is great cant stop reading.But i have an issue i recently bought an 4gb mini sd card for my phone the card works but is like it works when it feels like if i put it in and wait for a while or just randomly turn the phone off and on it will work i format it using my card reader through windows on fat32 and all the thing is it works but i should not have to be going through all of this for the sd card to work.
My next problem is i recently upgraded to SNN Edition Version 3.0 LITE and i have to say i love it but before my phone could detect my sd card and from i did i upgrade its not detecting my card at all to be on the safe side i took out the card before the upgrade and now its not detceting at all please can any one help me is there a patch i can use or something HELP!!

i think try to format via fat16 option. i had earlier 2gb kingston card sdmini after formatting it works welll

i was doing some reading and i was told that 2gb is the highest for formating with fat16 i have a 4gb card so this cant work for me a even look in properties and the only option is fat32.any body else as any more in puts.

4GB cards are almost exclusively multilayer, and cannot be read by the Wizard's card reader. You are basically limited to 2GB, and it should be formatted as FAT, not FAT32, as was already noted. If there's a 4GB model that's single layer, that's great, but I don't know about it. (...not saying I'm the definitive authority, either...)

which program can i use in windows to format the card in FAT and not FAT32 and as i said before the phone could read the card before i did the upgrade the only thing its takes a while for the phone too detect the SD card and thats in FAT32 format but i will try the FAT format.

from my experience you can't put ANY 4gb minisd card into the wizard and have it work correctly since it uses double buffering which the wizard doesn't support.
you have 2 options.. either buy a 2gb one.. or format only half of the card in FAT ...as myrddin said.. this might use only 1 buffer..
if that doesn't work, you can look for a program which blocks clusters and block half of the clusters on the card. that would certainly work but you won't be able to get 4gb out of that card ever again.
i'd go with the first option.. 2gb cards aren't that expensive nowadays.

well guys i bought the sd card for my phone and i research before buying it and it caused work so there must be a way for this to work even if i have to split it in 2 partitions but i am at work now so when i get home i will work on it (good thing i bought that card reader) lol but i will give you guys an update soon i plan to format the card in fat16 all 4gb if that dont work i am going to split the partition in 2 but i would love a single partition but what ever works.

Correct-o-mundo.
Another common problem (related more to card readers than just to Wizards) is that the reader contacts (and even the card contacts) can become worn, dirty, or corroded. Try removing the card and battery, and get in there with a VERY bright light, a magnifying glass, and some cotton swabs dipped in isopropyl. Clean the metal contacts on both card and Wizard. Be careful not to soak the chip. Damp, not wet. Soak the chip and you WILL be buying a new one soon.
Let things dry COMPLETELY before trying anything, or you'll be sorry.

[Q] Second SD Card

Hi - I'm in the market for the Droid 2 (Global) and have a question after reading a great deal about it. It comes with an 8GB SD memory card. In the section of the manual that talks about putting the phone together (battery, etc), it mentions a slot for an SD memory card. Since there isn't an 8GB card in that slot, it makes me believe I can put another card in there. Is that true? I'd like to use this phone for movies and music while on planes but 8GB isn't really enough except for music.
Thanks in advance.

As far as I know (I have the Droid 2 [not global]) and there is only one SD card slot. The 8GB sdcard that comes with it uses that one up. That sdcard slot will allow for up to a 32GB sdcard for storage, though. So if you were to purchase a 32GB or 16GB micro SD card you could get the storage you want.

Zenfone 3s Max ZC521TL 128 Gb external card not working

Hi there!
I bought a 128 Gb micro sd card on ali express and its not working on my ZC521TL.
Previously formated, the phone says that the card's not compatible and the phone wants to format it itself.
After letting it do so, the phone freezes.
My 32 Gb card is woking well and it's written that the phone can accept a 256 Gb card.
So, is it possible that the card is from poor quality, even though it's working well for something else, or is it something thechnical that I'm not aware of?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

Did You check the type of SD card you have ? Your phone supports SDXC , and previous generations, which can go up to 2Tb. There 's a new standard called SDUC with faster speeds but has memory up to 128Tb.
Check that first then check if the card work with a pc.

Thanks a lot.
I'll Make sure to buy the right one this time.
