Ab Work Outs: SanDisk 8GB microSDHC Card CLASS 2 (SDSDQ-8192, Bulk Package) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I tested the possibility of using my BlackBerry 8310 Curve as my primary mp3 player with an inexpensive Kingston 2GB microSD card.I ran into several issues in the process, but learned how to overcome them.

The Curve limits the file size transfers when they are sent to the phone's storage.This protects the phone from running out of memory.The trick is ensuring you are transferring files to the card instead.If you map drives on your computer, the first available drive is automatically used for the Curve's memory card.At home this is my F drive while at work it is K.If any other device is mapped to that drive, the Curve's memory card will not be recognized.

Additionally, there are settings that may need to be changed to allow music file transfers.Go to "Settings", then "Options" to click on "Media Card."Set "Mass Storage Mode Support" to ON.Also set the "Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode When Connected" to YES or PROMPT.

Initially to save music, I needed to remove the card from my Curve and transfer files directly from my computer.This is where the adapter, which converts the microSD card to full-sized SD card, comes in handy.After removing the Curve's battery, I simply popped the microSD card into the adapter and used my computer's SD drive.Do not format the card in the Curve, as it will only recognize half the storage space.If you must format, do so on your computer instead.Now that I have everything set up properly, this card does the job without worries.

PROS:
Good price
Reliable card

CONS:
None
