There seems to be a deal of trouble with certain SD cards running certain mods. It'd be nice to know what works and what doesn't work.

So in hopes of saving time and money on cards, and also from digging through the forums (for an hour) finding no clear answers:

Those who are booting or have in the past booted from SD cards, if you could take a minute and post:
Card brand / Size / Class - Mod/build - Issues


**Update**
(I'd like to hear from some Class 10 cards)

Stable:

*Transcend / 8GB / Class 6 - Froyo 0.6.7, CM7, Honeycomb
Kingston / 8GB / Class 4 - CM7
Lexar High Speed / 16GB / Class 6 - Froyo, CM7, Honeycomb
Sandisk / 16GB / Class 4 - CM7
Patriot / 8GB / Class 10 - 2nd release Honeycomb

Unstable:

Transcend / 8GB / Class 6 - CM7 (Frequent "Force close")
