Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 

I get the idea. Thanks!

Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 

Maybe I am missing something here.. (Possible, Im new to tablet)

But why go through the trouble of the adapter and back replacement when they now sell 16gb high speed Micro SD's?
Why not just use the Micro to MiniSD adapter?
16GB (with the highest performance MicroSD) would be a nigh/day difference compared to the internal 2gb.

Any thoughts..

Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 

Ah.. full size SD is larger physically. More durable, less likely to get lost, lately they have released larger GB way before micro or mini SD, right now 32GB is still larger than 16GB and I believe it will be in the near future.......

Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 

32 GB is till where the current SDHC protocol has defined. Any future capacity will likely make it into SDXC. This mod might be useful now, but I feel that within 6 months, we'll see microshdc attain 32 gb capacity.

Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 

I agree... I would be fine with 16gb upgrade..
So question is, is it possible to just upgrade the MiniSD to 16gb ?

I am still looking for the detailed documents , for what to do after the MiniSD is upgraded.

Partition info/recommendations, etc//

At the time when this adaptor was developed microSD was still at 4 or 8GB and had not reached class 6. At that time this adaptor was a really significant upgrade. Now that microSD has reached 16GB albeit not at class 6 as far s I know. It may not be necessary for some folk. But for others with lots of movies, MP3s and maps it may still be worthwhile now and in the near future.

Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 

So, when I replace the OEM 2GB with a 16GB, what else do I need to do?
Maybe nothing>? How does it need to be formatted?
Thanks

Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 

By "OEM 2GB", do you mean the internal card? It is not replaceable. (At least, it is not replaceable without a hot air soldering station, serious electronics knowledge, skill, and some luck.)

You can replace the external card with a Mini SD/SDHC or a Micro SD/SDHC in a Micro-to-Mini adapter.

Unless you're planning on doing something fancy with it, such as booting from it, the card will come out of the package formatted correctly. You need do nothing more than insert it into your tablet and begin saving files on it.

This is off topic for this thread though.

Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 

I built this because:

I have two 16GB SD card for what I paid for just one 16GB class 2 microSD for my cell phone. (Not in cell phone any more).

I have one 32GB SD class 6 for the same price I paid for the 16GB MicroSDHC class 2.

You need to use a adapter for the Micro to Mini which many times have bad connections,

I use my tablet every day and waiting for the class 2 micro compared to the 32GB class 6 is major to me.

I have had 3 Micro SD fail completely and no SD card failures

When 16Gb Micro SD class 4 to 6 is available they will be expensive.

When a 32GB micro SD card is available it will be expensive.

When a 32GB Micro SD card is available it will be class 2 to 4.

I do not like being held hostage by companies who release crappy products and make you pay big prices for them then release better products a months later for even more money.
So I try to improve my odds of having what I want when ever I can. I like the tablet but the original 8 GB version was useless for me since I already had a 48GB N800. Now I use it every day.

Also as mentioned today I started this project before you could buy 16GB class 2 micro SDHC.

Also the memory mod was not the only thing I made this for. I want a camera and a tilt sensor, a flash drive and several other mods. The metal cover opens up the tablet for many upgrades.

It is also easier to hold and type on with the metal case

I can go on but I think you get the picture.

I have already sold the metal case to others that are making their own mods, which includes a larger SD card capacity and a phone card.

It is not for everybody but for the people who have already purchased it they love it so far.

So for anyone who still want it there are some left. Once the metal covers are gone there will not be any more

Thanks to all the already purchased.
