SanDisk has just released a new range of Ultra cards that are twice as fast as the previous Ultra models. With a rated maximum transfer speed of 80MB/s, these should handle a lot of demanding applications. This is the cheapest price anywhere by a fair margin.

Card comes complete with SD adapter. Limited to one per customer, and will be dispatched immediately from PC Byte's Sydney warehouse. Apply coupon FASTARSE at checkout & select free shipping. Have a great day :)

Many thanks to Thrift for running this test after he received the card. Awesome results!

    Is the write speed 50MB/s or 15MB/s?

    The newest model on Amazon only has 15MB/s write, 80MB/s read.

    • Phoebus on 21/09/2015 - 15:07

      What he said,
      Can we confirm what the write speed is?
      If it's 15MB/s it's no good for high quality cameras.
      Though, theoretically 15MB/s should be good enough for any camera.

        Why would it not work in a GoPro?? I'm currently using a 64 GB TDK SD card from the recent AusPost deal. It has a much lower read/write speed and it works fine. I've been recording 1080p constantly and a bit of 4k. Although, I haven't looked at the footage yet.

        • [Deactivated] on 21/09/2015 - 19:11

          It would work fine. The extreme and PRO versions of the Sandisk and Samsung cards are just far more reliable and you won't get any slow downs when streaming directly from the sd card.

        This card is not compatible with the Sony 4K Action Camera that came up couple of weeks on the JB Instant Deal.
        You need to get the SanDisk 64GB Extreme UHS-3 model. It was $50 on ebay from Sydneytech last week , but no one is doing that deal anymore here on OzBargain.

        Everyone has been asking for an Extreme/Extreme Plus 64GB SDXC UHS-3 deal for past 4-6 weeks at around $50 or below but even the tightest of Tight Arses have failed unfortunately till date because of falling dollar. I am still patiently waiting for the D-day though as I am sure with faster versions of Micro SD cards coming to market, its inevitable that the extreme cards would soon be last gen and have to be cleared out.

      • [Deactivated] on 22/09/2015 - 10:14

        I just received my card. Works great in the Sony X1000V for 50 and 60 Mbps XAVC S (4K and 1080p) recording. Since it is a U1 speed class card, it doesn't unlock the 100 Mbps modes, regardless of its actual write speeds.

        The high read speeds makes transferring the footage a snap.

        You need SDXC to unlock the XAVC S modes, and at least UHS-I U3 to unlock the 100 Mbit modes.

        • regenade on 22/09/2015 - 12:00

          Yes for unlocking the 100 Mbps mode, still need the Sandisk Extreme UHS-3 64GB SDXC card. The Extreme (not Extreme Plus or Extreme Pro) is good enough as long it is the latest UHS-3 version with 60 MB/s reads and 40MB/s writes rated. This Ultra card is faster but unfortunately is not UHS-3 certified, meaning that the 100 Mbps XAVC recording will not be unlocked :(

          Can you post some real-world speeds, also a Crystal Mark screenshot of the read/write speeds please :)

        • [Deactivated] on 22/09/2015 - 12:31
          +5

          @regenade: Just a tiny clarification, "UHS" denotes the bus interface, not the speed class.

          There are two different UHS bus modes: UHS-I has interface speeds of 50MB/s and 104MB/s, UHS-II has interface speeds of 156MB/s and 312MB/s.

          There are also two UHS speed classes: U1 indicates a minimum serial data writing speed of 10MB/s, U3's minimum is 30MB/s.

          A UHS-II card could have a U1 speed rating, likewise a UHS-I card could have a U3 speed rating.

          I'll do a speed test and post the results.

        • regenade on 22/09/2015 - 12:48

      Wow that's interesting. That's the reason I was going to buy… I don't mind the voided warranty but I now I wonder if there is any issues with using it in a dash-cam.

      Hmmm might just take the risk, how many others here have bought (or buying) one for this purpose?

      Would love to hear more on this but given the newness of the card I doubt any info is available yet.

      • Blitzfx on 21/09/2015 - 23:31
        +3

        I would guess that having it in a dash-cam would put it through abnormally high amounts of read / write cycles since they loop over the first blocks of data after they reach the max capacity. This is a lot more than, say, if you just used it for camera photos or phone etc where it's not always being accessed.

      Not sure how they would enforce that or check it… I've had two cards fail and made a warranty claim from sandisk and because I make up some crap about sensitive content I get the ok to drill a hole through the middle before I send it for a warranty claim… replacement came through reasonably quickly direct from US…

      Also made a claim with adata and they wanted me to send the card back to asia as I couldn't remember where I bought it from… told them to get stuffed and never bought adata since…. said the same when i was emailing support they said nothing they can do. spend $20 sending a $25 card back to us. !!

    Hi francesca2148,
    I have purchased it too quickly without typing voucher code. Can I either cancel then reorder it or get a refund?
    Here is my order number: 100013490
    Thanks.

    just to confirm, the code "fatarse" does not work

      did you enter "fatarse", or the proper code FASTARSE ?

      I just tried it:

      CART TOTALS
      Subtotal $39.95
      Discount (FASTARSE) -$6.00
      Grand Total Excl. Tax $30.86
      Tax $3.09
      Grand Total Incl. Tax $33.95

      You've entered the wrong code. Still working. Thanks Thrift :)
