Micro SD cards are very common in a range of different devices including smart phones, cameras and video recorders. The main purpose of having an SD card in your device is to increase the storage space of the device.
In addition to increasing the storage space having an SD card fitted is also useful because it provides a separate storage space for your data. Because the SD card is device independent it can easily be moved to another device if required.
Introducing the SanDisk Ultra 200GB Micro SD
SanDisk have been in the removable flash storage market for a long time and have always been at the forefront of the technology involved. In fact some 10 years ago SanDisk very proudly released their 512MB card; at the time this was at the cutting edge of removable storage technology.
More recently SanDisk have introduced a 200GB version of their popular SD card which is almost 400 times the size. The 200GB SD card is one of the largest cards that is readily available and affordably priced.
At the time of writing the new 200GB SD card is listed on Amazon at a cost of $239.44 which is around 10% lower than its recommended retail price so if you are thinking about purchasing then now is the right time to do so before the price goes back up to its standard $249.99.
The SD card is compatible with microSDHC and microSDXC devices and with the included SD adaptor can also be used with SDHC and SDXC devices. In reality this covers most modern android smart phones, cameras and video recorders as well as a range of other devices.
Thanks to the new standards with which these devices are developed they also tend to be compatible with new larger sized cards as they come out. Because of this fact any device that currently accepts 128GB SD cards should also accept the larger 200GB cards.
Once the card is fitted into your device you will have a very nice amount of additional storage space for storing videos, photos or any other type of file that your device supports. Just to give you an idea of how much 200GB actually is, you can fit around 50,000 high quality photos on there, or an estimated 2,000,000 word or excel documents.
