I got my hands on the Sandisk 8GB MicroSDHC Card this weekend at the Sandisk Block Party and decided to run a few tests on it. Vincent Nguyen over at Slashgear did a test on a few phones to test the compatibility of the new Sandisk 8GB MicroSDHC Card. He basicly found that some were seeing the 8GB and some were only seeing 4GB.

He tested the following:

• Nokia N95 - Pass
• HTC Touch - Pass
• Blackberry 8310 - Pass
• Motorola RAZR2 - 4GB out of 8GB
• Samsung F700v - 4GB out of 8GB
• Vodafone Croix - 4GB out of 8GB

Following up on this, I ran some tests on some of the phones I have here to test. I used a Micro to Mini adapter for the Advantage and the Palm Treo 750. Read on for the results.

 
HTC Fusion (Libra) - Pass

 
Nokia N95 - Pass

AT&T Tilt - Pass

 
Creative Zen - Pass (with a Sandisk Micro to SD Adapter)

 
HTC Advantage - Pass! I used a Micro to Mini adapter here. 8gb Microdrive + 8gb Sandisk Card = WOW!!!!

 
Palm Treo 750 (US Version without WM6) - FAIL. Can't even see the card.

please work, please work.... 2gb sucks (well, not sucks, but is fairly limited now a days)

I thought that the 8525 can't handle more than 2GB. My understanding is that it didn't have the SDHC support. Hope I am wrong for all of the 8525 owners out there (including myself). Am glad to see that it will work on the Tilt as that is my daily driver.

One note.

Just because it can recognize the 8 gig does not mean it will be able to use the full 8 gig.
I have an Axim X5, with a 2 gig SD, it can see the full 2 gig. When I go over 1 gig on the card it locks up (file browser access is goofy, and needs a soft reset), and the card is no longer accessible even after a soft reset.

The real test is to put over 7 gig worth of stuff on the card, and verify it is still accessible.

Good Idea Uzziah! I will get on that.
