At less than 5 months from the introduction of the Raspberry Pi and all the others, your comment at 5:19 is prophetic in nature. Now Class 10 or U1 are the standards we use for the SBC's. Your archive is a wealth of information!

Even me Who is a brazilian guy and learned english alone, your british enlglish is very easy to understand. Congratulations Mr Barnatt!!!
There are not a lot of devices using SDXC yet. I know the Canon XA10 camcorder that I shot this video on can use them, as can some other camcorders and high-end DSLR cameras. But that's about it at present. And there will be very little reason for many devices ever to require the speed of SDXC.
June 1, 2016 - Thank you very much. The part where you froze, dropped and thawed the SD card was both funny and informative. The idea of storing data other than jpgs on an SD card I have never considered. I'll have to try that very soon. My fav is Sandisk micro SD cards class 10 32G Bytes used in a normal size SD card holder. Thanks again, Christopher B..
Great video, pleasure to watch. Narrated with clear and calm voice and without distracting clips this video is very informative. Also, the tests performed on the SD card are straight forward and easy to copy. This video reminds me how the ICT technology was introduced in 80s :-) Back then there was so much hope for bright future.. :-/ Great work, thank you.
Excellent summary of SD card specs. This stuff blows my mind. I have an old 4K core memory modules as a souvenir of my mainframe computer days. Eight data bits plus one parity bit for each of 4096 locations! Takes as much physical space as several hundred of these SD cards.
Thank you so very much! My Father was the one who always explained the computer and hi-tech world to me. I miss him a lot , but I'm sure he was the one who led my to your vids! Thanks again !
I loved you video! Not only you taught me what what the product was, but you told me the efficiency of each one, and the value uses of them all at the same time being compact facts that are easy to remember and weren't explained with long facts that I wasn't seeking. Simple, straight forward and very helpful answers, in other words. :)
Chris, since you changed the music and graphics you seem a little , well, subdued. You don't seem to be as excited as you were or having as much fun. Your videos are still excellent. There are a number of things I enjoyed about your older presentations. Your excitement when unwrapping a new piece of hardware or finding out an unexpected feature on a simpler board such as one of those $10 computers. The music that hearkened back to early computers. The exciting WHOOOOSH when the next section began. Much of it reminded me of how exciting things were when I had my first Texas Instruments TI-4A computer, when simply having music or hearing speech was an exciting new thing. I just writing this to let you know that you are appreciated and enjoyed, that although I may not tune into every video (the subject affects that), the ones I do watch are very satisfying indeed. (I loved seeing your Wallace & Gromit cup and your snack during a time when you had to wait for something in another video.) I hope everything is all right for you and no great tragedy has befallen you, either related to the channel or personally. I'll be looking for your next video and "I hope to see you again VERY soon".
Thank you for telling me about this sd card thing.....I found it is very helpful to watching this kind of explanation or tutorials that is very easy to understand it's content....Hope that this kind of videos is continuously make by you so that it will help more people understand about computers and other stuff that included in computing
Your Technology Explanations Are Always The Best! Very Clear, And Easy To Understand For Anyone. I Love Your Channel!! Now, I Haven't Seen All Of Your Videos. So I Have To Ask. Do You Explain Technology Of All Types? For Example: TV'S, Gaming Consoles, Phones, Cameras, ETC. Or Do You Only Stick To Computers And Their Accessories?
Thanks for this. On this channel I only cover computers and directly related accessories and concepts. I do some broader stuff on my ExplainingTheFuture channel.
Is it a Canon XA10 -- the smallest camera in Canon's pro range -- and shoots 1080p 24Mb AVCHD files to one or two SD cards. Most of the footage in this video is shot with this camera (aside from the shots of the camera itself!).
you surprise me again with another great explanation and you made me realize that they are very important to store data and back ups of critical files due to its small size and robust
Came here after you said in the 10yr anniversary video what the recent surgery had done to your throat. Although by comparison to your normal pitch/tone/energy etc you do sound a bit more subdued, unsurprisingly, it was still a great and informative video to watch. One thing about 64gb micro SDs I've found recently is that Windows won't format them FAT32, TP programme required.
Thanks for this. Micro and mini SD cards have exactly the same speed classes (though are harder to find in the higher classes), so, class-for-class, their IO speed is identical.
You make a very good point -- SD cards (and other flash memory cards -- though SD is the most popular) do exactly the same job as USB keys. Currently more desktop and laptop OC have USB ports than SD card slots, hence the need for USB keys if you want to carry data between unknown PCs of this type. But increasingly smartphones and tablets are more likely to have a (micro) SD slot and no full-size USB port -- so SD is becoming very widely used.
I love these videos because it's a man who looks like he's from the ninties explaining current-gen technology in a video style resembling that of the early 2000s
@ExplainingComputers thank you for a quite informative video on the differences in different SD cards and what their differences actually are. I'm expecting you'll make more videos as this one was done 4 years ago.
Up to 2 Terabytes is a very large amount of data for most users. My computer hard drive is just 1 TB. I think it is really amazing how technology has made this possible. I have an 8GB standard SD card for my Kodak Digital camera and have never got past 3 GB of images stored on it, and there were literally several thousand images on it.
@@96blocks On my SD Cards I only record .jpg images. On my computers I do more formats, including the high memory lossless formats, such as .bmp, .png, etc. All 4k means is that the image has a resolution of 4096 pixels in one direction or the other. That resolution allows for some fairly decent large sized images.
I benefited from this video, and we are in the year 2020 at the time of the Corona pandemic, and you have made this video for nearly 9 years. And the best thing that I benefited from this video is that the sd card cards are hot and cold water resistant even to the freezer and shock resistant and after all these dangerous severe experiences of these memories remain intact and without any significant damage as can be easily hidden in the money wallet and pasted under the table And hide it anywhere we wanted ... it's really cool. You are also wonderful, Mr. Christopher Barnatt
just be carefull of it's number 1 weakness: corruption. mico sd cards can corrupt easily if they are suddenly disconnected while in use(for example when you run a software installed on it and there is a power outage. lots of rewriting to it can also cause problems
Indeed -- and 128GB cards are now on the market -- so 2TB cards are only a few years away now. The max capacity only had to double four times now, and a doubling of maximum capacity seldom takes more than 6 months. :)
@elpilito1990 Thanks for your kind feedback. Having bought Sandisk Class 4 cards you may be lucky, as Sandisk cards tend to perform faster than their class rating (which is a guaranteed speed minimum when new). But as you imply, trying to shoot full HD on a class 4 card is hopeful. Fingers crossed! :-)
To be certain of recording HD video with no problems I would opt for a Class 10 SDHC card. A class six card may well be OK, but could cause problems with recording the 1080p 30fps video that this camera can produce. I see that Hero state that you need a class 4 or above SHDC card for this camera (though that may only work for its SD modes I guess). But the cards Hero sell for the camera via their website are Class 10 Sandisk SDHC. So if it were me I'd buy class 10 if you want to use HD.
Good point on making SD cards sort of a "staple" in your media needs. But as of this moment, they are still very pricey specially the mini and micro SD cards like the C10, 32Gb and above capacities . By the way, I learned a lot in through your videos. Thank you! Shalom.
The Lord of The Rings movie was playing in my background and I thought it was from this dude's video until I heard Gandalf said "you shall not pass" and I was like heck no, he wouldn't add that. And that is the story of how I laughed on my stupidity.
Yes, you are right -- flash memory does degrade the more times it is written to. So important backups should not be stored on highly-used SD cards or flash memory. But flash media with low writes can make an effective part of a backup strategy. I would not for a second suggest not using hard disks. I am just pointing out here that a cheap way to get some additional backup protection for key files (& likely more flood and theft resistant than a hard disk) is to spend a few dollars on an SD card.
Yes, these cards are used in many DSLRs. For most photography I would recommend a class 6 or above SDHC card -- if you shoot HD video, a class 10 card would be better.
Ah, now that is a very good question indeed! I would say that typically class 10 and UHS-1 cards will show significantly better transfer speeds using a USB 3.0 reader. But for class 6 and below cards it will probably not make much difference whether you use a USB 3.0 or USB 2.0 one (although there may be exceptions, as a card's class denotes a minimum speed, and some class 6 cards -- like the Sandisk tested in the video -- are pretty fast).
It would almost certainly be as fast -- but more expensive in terms of cost per gigabyte! However, your idea has been used in practice. For many years Panasonic have sold a high-end solid-state card format called P2 that is used in some pro video cameras. But inside a P2 card are just four high-speed SDHC cards in a RAID config.
Having trouble finding answer to my query, perhaps you can help? I am in need of cards for a camera I just bought- Kodak Pixpro AZ362 and a video camera purchased last year. The manual for the Kodak mentions SD/SDHC card compatibility and on the Samsung HMX-F90 camcorder itself, is stamped "sdxc". So, clearly I know I can use the SDXC in the Samsung only and SDHC in either. My issue is the myriad speeds and ratings for these cards. I want 32GB for the SDHC and I only see 64GB for SDXC but what about the UHS cards? I see nothing about that o either device. Will that make ay difference, if say, my cameras are not compatible with ultra? Can I still use cards with the UHS- 1 or UHS-3 rating? Of course I wanted to get the fastest read/write speeds but can I use a card with these higher speeds ( ie- 90mb/second) in any device as long as it is the correct sdhc or sdxc? Would the only issue be that I may not achieve such speeds, or would the UHC actually cause issues in a device that I don't see UHC specified/stamped on? Hope this made some semblance of sense; thanks for your time...J
jenraider72 Any SDHC card of any speed rating should work on either device you have. This includes cards rated UHS-1 and UHS-3 (although you may get no benefit purchasing a UHS-3 card). What you probably want to avoid are the new UHS-II cards. These have a physically different bus to all other cards (which are UHS-I) -- with the UHS-II cards having an extra row of connection pins used to achieve higher speeds. UHS-II cards are backwards compatible (so they would work with your existing SDXC device, and maybe the SDHC one). But they would only work at UHS-I speeds, so it would be a waste of money. It is very confusing now that we have UHS-1 and UHS-3 as speed ratings, and UHS-I and UHS-II as bus types! I really must make an update video to cover all of this. My suggestion would be to purchase a class 10 / UHS-1 SDHC card, say 32GB, from a reputable maufacturer (eg Sandisk or Lexar). Good luck! :)
@@ExplainingComputers Is that what you use for most videos on your channel or just for this one? Your videos have unique olden days look. Very nostalgic and informative too. I love it.
@@toresagen7346 Thanks for your kind feedback. And yes, pretty much everything here is edited in Premiere, with composite in After Effects, other graphics in PhotoShop, and all the 3D CG work (like the SD cards in this video) done in LightWave. But for my recent "Raspberry Pi 4 Week" video, I edited everything on a Raspberry Pi in Kdenlive and Blender, and you almost could not tell the difference!
Really superb explanation, btw; I feel I learned an awful lot which I didn't know before. Thanks! ;-) I use SDHC inside of my FujiFilm FinePix AX350 digital compact camera. I brought an 'Integral USB 2.0 Single Slot SD Reader adaptor' from off Amazon web site costing only around £1.89; which allows me to use my SDHC card both inside of the digital camera; and, also, on any PC/Laptop computer equipped with a USB slot. PC/Laptop files can be stored onto the SDHC card, too; very compact storage.

No its talk to you
lol it seemed
lol good job spotting that XD
cybersphere hahaa
Awesome I love how things work on computers and definitely subscribed. Also he looks like Austin powers
Yes -- almost boiling water! Some initial experiments proved that it would have taken ages to melt the ice without it.
Thank GOODNESS you explained it so simply - many many thanks
Having trouble finding answer to my query, perhaps you can help? I am in need of cards for a camera I just bought- Kodak Pixpro AZ362 and a video camera purchased last year. The manual for the Kodak mentions SD/SDHC card compatibility and on the Samsung HMX-F90 camcorder itself, is stamped "sdxc". So, clearly I know I can use the SDXC in the Samsung only and SDHC in either. My issue is the myriad speeds and ratings for these cards. I want 32GB for the SDHC and I only see 64GB for SDXC but what about the UHS cards? I see nothing about that o either device. Will that make ay difference, if say, my cameras are not compatible with ultra? Can I still use cards with the UHS- 1 or UHS-3 rating? Of course I wanted to get the fastest read/write speeds but can I use a card with these higher speeds ( ie- 90mb/second) in any device as long as it is the correct sdhc or sdxc? Would the only issue be that I may not achieve such speeds, or would the UHC actually cause issues in a device that I don't see UHC specified/stamped on? Hope this made some semblance of sense; thanks for your time...J
jenraider72 Any SDHC card of any speed rating should work on either device you have. This includes cards rated UHS-1 and UHS-3 (although you may get no benefit purchasing a UHS-3 card). What you probably want to avoid are the new UHS-II cards. These have a physically different bus to all other cards (which are UHS-I) -- with the UHS-II cards having an extra row of connection pins used to achieve higher speeds. UHS-II cards are backwards compatible (so they would work with your existing SDXC device, and maybe the SDHC one). But they would only work at UHS-I speeds, so it would be a waste of money.
It is very confusing now that we have UHS-1 and UHS-3 as speed ratings, and UHS-I and UHS-II as bus types! I really must make an update video to cover all of this.
My suggestion would be to purchase a class 10 / UHS-1 SDHC card, say 32GB, from a reputable maufacturer (eg Sandisk or Lexar). Good luck! :)
Thanks very much indeed. I did just that; purchased class 10 SDHC 32GB Lexar UHS-1
No. Providing that the card works, the image quality will be the same regardless of the card specification.
dear sir, thank you for your good JOB , You are wonderfully "Explaining Computers".
Yes, if you want the very best SD card for HD video at present, get UHS-1.
Fantastic video:)
I f-ing love you. Subscribed to your channel.
Which video editing program did you use to make this video? Please tell me kind sir.
Premire Pro CS 5.0.
@@ExplainingComputers Is that what you use for most videos on your channel or just for this one? Your videos have unique olden days look. Very nostalgic and informative too. I love it.
@@toresagen7346 Thanks for your kind feedback. And yes, pretty much everything here is edited in Premiere, with composite in After Effects, other graphics in PhotoShop, and all the 3D CG work (like the SD cards in this video) done in LightWave. But for my recent "Raspberry Pi 4 Week" video, I edited everything on a Raspberry Pi in Kdenlive and Blender, and you almost could not tell the difference!
Hey, I have a question: What program/software are you using to make the intro, outro and in-video animations? A reply would be greatly appreciated :)
Which of this two is faster?
UHS Speed Class 1
or
UHS Speed Class 3
Please tell me, I need to know
thanks
Amazing explanation!
Really superb explanation, btw; I feel I learned an awful lot which I didn't know before. Thanks! ;-) I use SDHC inside of my FujiFilm FinePix AX350 digital compact camera. I brought an 'Integral USB 2.0 Single Slot SD Reader adaptor' from off Amazon web site costing only around £1.89; which allows me to use my SDHC card both inside of the digital camera; and, also, on any PC/Laptop computer equipped with a USB slot. PC/Laptop files can be stored onto the SDHC card, too; very compact storage.
