PNY 64GB Elite Performance Class 10 U3 SDXC Flash Memory Card - 95MB/s, Class 10, U3, 4K UHD, Full HD, UHS-I, Full Size SD

Great card, delivers the promised speed of 95mbps. Sequential read speed is right at the advertised speed, and the write is lower (as expected) at around 45mbps. Still a very good number for a SDXC card at this price. If you plan on using this for a Raspberry Pie or similar, I would look elsewhere however, the random 4k read and write are quite slow. Used for a video camera or even a DSLR this won't matter, but for an OS type scenario you'll notice it. Overall a fantastic card and worth every penny of 44 bucks. Ran Crystal Disk Mark 5.1.2 with Transcend USB 3.0 Card Reader (TS-RDF5K) on a USB 3.0 port. The results are quite interesting. You'll see that this SD card is actually faster than most hard drives. Random read 4k is at 1542 IOPS (a fast disk drive will yield 150-200 IOPS). Random Read is nearly the same on 4k, both great numbers for an inexpensive SD card. The card is rated at UHS-1 U3 and should work well for 4k recording. Sequential Read (Q= 32,T= 1) : 94.568 MB/s Sequential Write (Q= 32,T= 1) : 66.713 MB/s Random Read 4KiB (Q= 32,T= 1) : 6.316 MB/s [ 1542.0 IOPS] Random Write 4KiB (Q= 32,T= 1) : 1.090 MB/s [ 266.1 IOPS] Sequential Read (T= 1) : 93.592 MB/s Sequential Write (T= 1) : 44.869 MB/s Random Read 4KiB (Q= 1,T= 1) : 6.193 MB/s [ 1512.0 IOPS] Random Write 4KiB (Q= 1,T= 1) : 0.855 MB/s [ 208.7 IOPS] Very happy with the product, will purchase more. Note: You'll see people have different read/write speeds on these cards. A lot of it has to do with the testing platform.

I've always loved PNY cards. I've used them pretty religiously for the past 10+ years. I think over that time, I've only had one card have a problem (and I've bought more than a normal share during a four year stretch as a professional wedding photographer). I'm currently using a Sony a7Riii and I shoot a lot in continuous shooting mode. These cards are fast enough to give me between 5-10 shots with little or no buffer (Shooting RAW at about 42 MP and JPEG simultaneously). I recently took a trip to NYC for an engagement session and shot 2000 images on one card with no issues. Really can't think of any cons on these cards. The cards function as expected for my intended use. I would imagine sports photographers might want cards with faster write speeds, but these seem more than adequate for portrait photography. No duds (I ordered 4), all function properly and have been used quite a bit since purchase with no issues. I'd recommend these cards.

I got this card about 10 days ago and have used it extensively. I was particularly interested in its U3 speed rating, since I shoot lots of 4K video at a speed of 100 Mbps (I use a Panasonic ZS100 camera). So far, this 128GB PNY SD card has worked perfectly, with no hiccups or problems. Even with 4K video at 100 Mbps, it can hold a LOT of video. Good price and no glitches -- excellent product. June 2, 2016 edit: I've now used this card for a month, extensively shooting 4K video. There has not been one glitch with this card -- excellent performance at a great price. May 19, 2017 edit: The record lock slider on this SD card fell out around May 1, 2017. Granted, I use my camera a lot and have this SD card in and out often. Still, once the record lock slider fell out, I could no longer shoot stills or videos... I could only read what was already on the SD card. I contacted PNY's customer service, which said to provide proof of purchase (my Amazon invoice) and to send it back. I just received a replacement SD card, which is the second photo below. I was disappointed that the first SD card failed, but PNY came through promptly with a replacement -- good for PNY!

I purchased this card to use with my brand new DSLR, the Canon EOS Rebel SL1. I wanted a high capacity and fast card that would allow me to photograph in RAW mode at all times and have room for any possible video that I might shoot. This card met every requirement and expectation that I had of it. Pros: 1. FAST! There is absolutely no delay after pressing the shutter release and the image is stored, it's seamless. 2. I opted for the 64 GB capacity and I was able to store over 2000 RAW images. 3. Transfer off of the card to my Mac was also extremely fast. I am using the built in card reader in my Mac Mini. Cons: 1. None I am completely satisfied with this card. It's fast, has excellent capacity, and just plain works perfectly in my application. It's a great value and I highly recommend it.

Let me begin by saying while I have a nice camera and a 100 - 400 lens, I am not a teckie so this review is about the performance I experienced without all the nits and nats about pixles, capacity, shutter speed in that tech language. I needed some additional cards because I was going to Cuba to bird and I knew I was going to be taking a lot of photos, trying to capture wild birds that tend to flit around a lot (so using a burst or sports setting to get multiple images hoping one is in focus, has the whole bird, etc.) and mostly seek to announce their presence with their song while keeping themselves hidden from predators. So I needed capacity, speed and confidence in my equipment. This card was great - not only could I get a lot of RAW images (which just eat up space) but the speed of transfer was very fast so the images were rapidly captured. I will be purchasing some additional cards as this one held 2 days of intensive birding (and lots of beauty shots of the countryside) before it was full. When I had to put in my 32 GB card I could really notice the difference in speed which surprised me that it was that distinctive. So I would recommend and intend to purchase again as I will be birding more this migration season and this card made my day easy as there was one less thing to think about and plan for. Ta T

Ordered this from Amazon/PNY. It came it the well-known PNY-branded packaging that read "up to 95 MB/s." I confirmed that it does READ at 95 MB/s. I also confirmed that it was indeed a 128 GB memory card, (which shows up as 119 GB depending on how you count what a GB is). EXPLANATIONS. 1) Why do some people document much-slower-than 95 MB/s read time? Well, because it depends on how your device is interacting with it. If you copy one ginormous file, say, 64GB, and it is written sequentially without fragments, and your device is dedicated to NOTHING BUT transferring the file, then you will see 95 MB/s read time. What if you're moving 64GB worth of data, but it's spread out among 200,000 files? Then every time you start to read and copy a new file, the device has to search for the filename in the file allocation table, (FAT), get the address of the file, and then go to that address, and follow pointers wherever that file is physically stored, jumping around as necessary. When it gets to the next file name, it will stop, go to your drive or memory where you're copying it TO, make a new entry in your FAT table, (okay, this is the somewhat simplified version), and then go back to the memory card and search, etc. IN SHORT, the greater number of files and folders you have, and the more scattered, (fragmented), those files are, then the more time the device will spend searching, writing file names, i.e., things OTHER THAN transferring data. That will report as a slower effective transfer rate, even though the memory card is performing at 95 MB/s. SECONDLY, if the device is doing other things on its bus, then clearly transfer time will slow down. Every time the device performs a task, it is reading/writing to/from memory locations, which require transfers over the bus. Somewhat simplified, but the bus is like lanes of traffic. Even if the memory card is reading at 95 MB/s coming out of its own parking garage and driveway, if the interstate (the device's bus) is clogged up with traffic from watching a movie, searching on the Internet, scanning for viruses, etc., then the data from the card is not going to arrive at 95 MB/s, even though it's capable of pumping the data to the interstate (bus) that fast. 2) WHY ONLY 119 GB? DID I GET RIPPED OFF? No. Remember, computers only know 2 numbers (or states: on or off). They follow a base-2 system. Let's start by asking what is a kilobyte? Every grade-school kid who learns the metric system knows it's a thousand bytes. They are right. Sort of. To a computer, a kilobyte is 2^10 bytes. Count it out with me: 2, (times 2 is), 4 (times 2 is) 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024. To a computer, a kilobyte is 1024 bytes, not 1000 bytes. So what is a megabyte? In common parlance, it's a million bytes, 1,000,000 bytes. But to a computer, a megabyte is 2^20 bytes. Count it out with me, starting with a kilobyte: 1024 (times 2 is), 2048 (times 2 is), 4096, 8192, 16384, 32768, 65536, 131,072, 262,144, 524,288, 1,048,576. So to a computer, 1 MB is 1,048,576 Bytes, even though we say it's 1,000,000 Bytes. A gigabyte (GB) is what we commonly call a billion bytes. But to a computer, instead of 1,000,000,000 B, a GB is actually 1,073,741,824 B. What we call 128 GB means 128,000,000,000 Bytes to us. But to a computer, 128 GB is 2^37 B, which is 137,438,953,472 B. So when you purchase 128 Billion Bytes of storage, you can call it 128 gigabytes, where "giga-" means "a billion." To understand how many "computer GB" this is compared to "human GB," simply divide by the ratio of 2^37 to 128 Billion, which is 137,438,953,472 divided by 128,000,000,000. You shoudl get 1.073741824. And when you divide it into 128 Billion Bytes, you get 119.2092896, which rounds to 119 GB (computer GB). SO YES, YOU PURCHASED 128 BILLION BYTES of memory, or 128 GB, which THE COMPUTER SHOWS AS 119 GB.

This is one HELLUVA CARD!! I own the 32GB 64GB and 256GB version of these cards and they work flawlessly for My BlackMagic / Black Magic Pocket cinema camera in all ProRes HQ 422 LT Proxy, in 30 FPS or below; it is not going to work at all for RAW it wont even recognize it for that type of recording but any thing else you are good, people complain about faulty recording or cards. It happens, go RMA it from amazon and get another one because this card is the way to go for price and performance. For photos this card is just plain overkill, if your camera could take 4 RAW photos continuously then its fine if not then dont blame the card but the buffer, any faster your looking for UHS-II cards or CF or CFast 2.0 cards which are a different ball game and should not be looking here. I do video production and am a solutions engineer so i would highly suggest this card. I have the Sandisk Extreme Pro cards for RAW recording on my BMPCC. This could in my opinion would also do fine for Sony A7 cameras and panasonic GH4 cameras at 200mbps intra or compressed. I never get dropped frames. Average Read speeds are 93MB/ps and writes are at 55MB/ps i use both an USB 3 SD card reader and SD card slots that are linked with a express lane so i get past 40 MB/ps.

I got this to use in my Lenovo Y510P, which has a SD card slot that flush mount a card, so why not add some more SSD storage? I was considering the 512GB, but for the price, this was much better at the time (Mar2016). Mine benched a little better than the other posted, with 4k blocks I got 90GB reads and 64GB writes. On 8k blocks it was the same as the other poster. PNY has the lifetime warranty too, which is also a nice feature, especially with a card this size, it should be useful for years to come. It came formatted as FATex, but I switched to NTFS for my setup. I am going to use this as my Acronis Secure Zone backup space, so I don;t eat up any space on my primary SSD. Since the backups run at night, I won't need the 200+ MB writes of the main SSD. I am very happy, and I would buy another if this one ever went bad. But if it goes bad, I will always have the lifetime RMA, so ... One other important thing to note: The Lenovo Y510P SD card reader is on the USB3 bus, I knew this because I tested the card in a Dell Latitude that only came with USB2, and the same card on the USB2 reader bus clocked in around 21Mb/S reads and writes, thus being capped by USB2. So, if you want to get the most out of this card, make sure your reader can support USB3 speeds. It might even read faster than 90Mb/s, but I will not know since I don't have a SD card reader on a PCI-E bus? I guess I could buy a PCI-E to SD card adapter for my Desktop, but I don't need it right now so I won't know anytime soon...

good quality and value for money.

Been shooting a documentary in 4k on a7rii for the past week with two of the 512gb cards. Havent had a hitch so far - usually a sandisk guy, this is my first time with PNY so i cant speak for the longevity. So far so good!

普通に問題無くつかえています。 処理速度も問題なし。 良い買い物でした。

Ich habe diese Card im August 2017 gekauft. Ich habe 3 verschiedene SDXC U3 Cards seit 2018 im Einsatz, Toshiba, Kingston und PNY. Die bei weitem günstigste hat als einzige nie Ärger gemacht. Die Toshiba mußte ich 2 mal neu formatieren um Sie in der Panasonic Lumix FZ 1000 wieder einsetzen zu können. Die Kingston nutze ich nicht mehr da ich schon dreimal HD Videodaten von meiner Panasonic HC-X929 mit einem Datenrettungsprogramm sehr Zeitintensiv reparieren mußte (glücklicherweise erfolgreich es waren einmal wichtige Kundenvideos). Die PNY setze ich in der Lumix weiterhin ein, in der HC-X929 kommt die Toshiba und in meine neue Panasonic HC-VFX999 die vorgestern gekaufte PNY 256GB SDXC Elite Performance Memory Card. Ich hoffe Sie bewährt sich genauso wie die kleine Schwester von 2017. Bewertung der 256 GB Card folgt nach mind. 3 Monaten gewerblichem Einsatz. :)

I purchased this to use with a TASCAM DR-40X. I had two cards it wouldn’t recognize and all the official media was really shooting up in price. This card is fast enough and gives you decent capacity. I will be filling the card before formatting to preserve its life and will report back if the card fails.
