How Much Do You Need? SanDisk announced 200GB SD Card
Sandisk, a well-known SD card manufacturer is having a good news for their customers, which will probably be a jaw-dropping moment for anyone who’s into tech. They have finally started the sales of their huge 200GB SD card, which they introduced in MWC 2015, Barcelona. This mammoth of a storage unit is selling to the equivalent price of the Moto G2 when it was launched. The tiny device has a massive storage capacity of 200GB and is claimed to have a transfer rate of 90MB per sec, or 1,200 photos per minute. As a Class 10 memory card(Which is insane), it is presumably geared towards photographers and filmmakers who need more space than other SD cards can typically offer. And as a bonus, it is also Waterproof, shockproof, X-ray proof, and magnet proof!
Dinesh Bahal, Vice President, Product Marketing, SanDisk India even said about the product on the launch:
“We continue to push technology boundaries to deliver record-breaking solutions that transform the way consumers use their mobile devices. By focusing on achieving new capacity and speed milestones, we are able to deliver trusted mobile memory solutions that give consumers the freedom to never stop capturing, saving, or sharing – with the benefit of fast speeds to transfer it all quickly.”
At this moment, there aren’t that much of mobile smartphones that can take advantage of this card as the mostly the card limit is 32GB, 64GB and 128GB for high-ends. But, there are phones like the LG G4, HTC One M9+ and HTC One ME (which come with the 2TB of expandable storage option) which take up to 2TB of data should be able to use the new 200GB Micro SD card easily.
For now, the microSD card is up on Amazon for a prize of $240 (Approx. Rs 15,250) and is backed by a ten-year limited warranty. The e-commerce website is shipping to most parts of India.
