Black Friday Deals in SD Cards Anywhere?

Does the SanDisk 32 ultra have the same problem?

While I don't own the cards myself, based on the reviews, it seems that all the non-64GB cards support FAT32 and NTFS as well as exFAT. Only the 64GB card is locked to exFAT.

Isnt exFat the fastest of the 3 formats available. Im planning to use it for my music library, Ring tones and sounds.

I didn't read through all the pages so I apologize ahead if I'm repeating. Costco had a class10 32micro SD for $16 until tomorrow

For what it's worth, it looks like they confirmed that the card only supported exFAT formatting. If that's the only issue, then the Note 2 should be fine, as it's perfectly capable of reading exFAT.

For those of us unfamiliar, are there any drawbacks to exFAT vs FAT32 or NTSF? Specifically as far as limiting options in terms of uploading/downloading images files to/from the GN2?

Also, would you be able to explain in layman's terms the proper way to format the card? Sorry but in the past with my Evo4G it was very simple. Stick the card in the phone, choose to format it, done. Now I'm reading about defining formats and may be misreading but it seems like a lot of this and that to it before being able to use the card.

Many thanks in advance.

You shouldn't run into any issues uploading/downloading images from the GN2 unless your computer, TV, other device, or the GN2 can't read the exFAT format.

You can read up on some of the details at Wikipedia: exFAT - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


If you have a newer OS, you should be able to format to exFAT on your PC (and Mac, apparently, though I wouldn't really know). Not sure if the GN2 can format the card to exFAT itself.
