The 8GB SDHC card with MicroMate USB 2.0 reader will be available in April in the United States, Europe, the Middle East and Africa. We expect that SDHC will soon spread to digital music players, mobile phones and other personal electronics, making the 8GB SDHC card a versatile tool for moving around lots of photos, music and video.” “More than 30 digital still cameras and digital camcorders from Canon, Casio, Nikon, Panasonic, Pentax and Sanyo are already SDHC-compatible.
MICROMATE RANGE FREE
"SanDisk is including a MicroMate USB 2.0 reader free with every 8GB SDHC card to make sure that users have no trouble transferring files between the card and their computers,” said Wes Brewer, SanDisk’s vice president for consumer products marketing. SDHC cards are not backwards compatible - they will only work in devices with SDHC card slots. The 8GB SDHC card adheres to the SD Speed Class 2 rating, which guarantees a minimum data-transfer rate of 2MB/sec 3. The specification was developed by the SD Association, an industry standards organization, which also defined three classes for speed and performance capabilities. Previous specifications for SD cards limited capacity to 2GB, while SDHC supports capacities up to 32GB. SDHC is the new designation for cards in any SD format larger than 2GB that adhere to the new SD 2.0 specification. “The new 8GB SDHC delivers twice the capacity of what was previously our biggest SD card - the 4GB SDHC - introduced just eight months ago.” “As consumers add more digital entertainment and memories to their lives - especially when they start shooting video with a digital still camera or digital camcorder - they need more storage capacity in flash memory cards,’’ said Susan Park, retail product marketing manager at SanDisk. The MicroMate reader also works with standard SD cards. SDHC cards require an SDHC-compatible reader, so providing the MicroMate reader with the card ensures that users will be able to connect the card to their computers. The new card, which SanDisk is showing in Hall 23, Stand B28, at the CeBIT show here, holds more than 4,000 high-resolution pictures, as many as 2,000 digital songs or up to 15 hours of MPEG 4 video 2.The 8GB SDHC card will come bundled with a SanDisk MicroMate ™ USB 2.0 reader at no extra charge. 16, 2007 – SanDisk ® Corporation (NASDAQ:SNDK) today introduced an 8-gigabyte (GB) 1 SD ™ High Capacity (SDHC ™) card-the highest capacity now available in the SD format.
