Buy SanDisk 8GB SDHC Ultra Secure Digital Flash Memory Card 15 MB/s (SDSDRH-008G, Bulk Package) Now
I bought this SD card for 2 purposes.1) to slip in my Windows 7 laptop to expand my internal RAM.
2) To use in my digital camera when traveling.
So, most of the time, I am using the card with my Windows 7 readyboost feature which allows an external memory source to add to my internal RAM to help improve performance of my travel laptop which is an inexpensive celeron based laptop that I use just for travel purposes. If it gets stolen or broken, I am not out a lot of money. as such it is a barebones laptop and this additional memory does make it work a litle faster.
Also, when traveling, my digital camera is used to take video which eats up a lot of memory. So, if I have the need to take a lot of videos or one long video, I can pop out this card and use it in my camera which currently has only a 2 GB card in it.
This is a good buy. The High capacity card works great in both applications.These cards are good basic SD cards which work very well when speed is not an issue. I own 3 of these cards which I purchased prior to purchasing my Canon EOS 60D DSLR. While they work well in this camera, they are more aligned to a slower camera. This only becomes an issue if you need to shoot many images in rapid succession in high speed burst mode. For this type of operation a class 10 card is more appropriate because of their faster read/write characteristics. For consumer based SLRs and point and shoot cameras these SD cards are amongst the most reliable I have ever owned and used.
