Good Card
Sandisk make good quality kit, but there is a problem with SDHC in that you will probably need a SDHC card reader for your laptop/computer. I have 2 laptops 1 HP and a Toshiba both with SD card readers, neither like SDHC so I had to buy a USB SDHC reader and it works a treat. I will point out that this is not the fault of the card or card manufacturer, but if you have...

Do not buy this product
I recently purchased this item and a 2GB micro SD card. This item was not very well packaged in fact it was just put in the mailing envelope. When I opened it there was no identification serial numbers on it. I work in high tech manufacturing and I know the importance of the serial numbers. When I put the card in my computer it would not boot. The supplier of this card...

Excellent service and value for money. I ordered this disc on Sunday evening and despite Monday being a bank holiday I received it in the post this morning. I checked the price against Argos and this one is a fraction of the price . It also holds thousands of pics at a high spec. What more could you ask for.

What can I say, Nice Card works well in my Garmin Nuvi 760.
I see some bad reviews on SDHD cards this is because it is a new format, not all SD Card readers can see SD HD, even though they are physically identical. This includes new devices being sold here, read the device instructions / specifications first then place your order to make sure it will support the card, and don't be too surprised if you have an existing bit of kit that won't see it. If you have any doubts buy a 2Gb SD card as most SDHD readers are backwards compatible and will see it.
In the case of Garmin check out the website FAQ this is the only place where it says max size is 4GB SDHD.

I bought this exact card, after having had good service from Sandisk compact flash cards. These haven't failed on me, unlike cards from some other manufacturers. My PC won't read this SDHC card directly, but put it through a card reader or USB adapter and it works fine. Adapter is sometimes provided with card purchase.

I recently purchased this item and a 2GB micro SD card. This item was not very well packaged in fact it was just put in the mailing envelope. When I opened it there was no identification serial numbers on it. I work in high tech manufacturing and I know the importance of the serial numbers. When I put the card in my computer it would not boot. The supplier of this card provided the two products that I purchased. One worked very well and the other didn't. I did receive and email from the supplier of this card saying they where having supplier issues. Until these problems are resolved DO NOT PURCHASES THIS CARD. I would recommend this card (SANDISK MICRO SD 2GB CARD, same supplier) it may be smaller in size but it does work. I invested this product by taking it apart. I found that one of the chips that should be present on the SD cards PCB was not there and in its place was a glued piece of plastic. This including the lack of serial numbers suggest to me and anyone else for that matter that this product it very suspicious. If any one else has purchased this product try to find the serial number on it. If they are not present and you PC fail's to boot when it is put into the computer I suggest getting a refund and if a refund is not forthcoming immediately send it straight to trading standards. This is a very dodgy product. DO NOT BUY IT, DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT.
DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Firstly, ignore most of the reviews for this product rating it at 1 star. The majority appear to be from people who didn't realise the difference between 'SD' and 'SDHC' and seem to feel either Amazon or Sandisk are responsible for their ignorance. SDHC cards are a newer technology that allow higher storage capacity, and therefore older cameras are not compatible.
As for the card itself, it does the job fine. Access times are a little slow, so if your always in a rush I'm guessing you'd be better off with something from the Sandisk Extreme 3 range. No complaints at this price.

LOL. This gets 5 stars from those that buy it knowing it is compatible (or lucky) with HC and 1 star from those that cannot read or be bothered to check!
