HDD GURU FORUMS

Hi,
a few of us in the community would like to find a working card like the picture below. We need one to study. If anyone has one, I would be willing to trade it for a new card of better specs, Buy it, or other that benefits you. If you have one and are willing to help, please reply

The Card would need to be exactly the same, for example if it was 30MB/s or a different type of PNY such as "High Performance", the internals would be different, and would not help in this case.

Many Thanks.

I'm one of that "community" intrerested in a working one, and if it's easier to ship to UK then the same offer applies here

guys, is there any other discriminating factor for this particular card?
Are there 4GB and 16GB that would do?
Found some retail but, as ever, uses a generic product image rather than a scan of an actual device.

hi kern, if that was http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/PNY-8GB-Performance-SDHC-Card-Class-10-UHS-1-/181323928469?pt=UK_AudioTVElectronics_PDAsAccessories_MemoryCards&hash=item2a37bf9395

I think Sean already got one and it was a monolith inside.

Yes must be 8GB as shown, and another tidbit is that the case is Blue plastic, and the unsuitable one was black.

There are so many variations in the PNY range it is going to b e a challenge. It is possible that there is a same device rebadged, but impossible to know. manufacturers can swap internals while keeping outers the same including model numbers. I tested this by buying Sony 8GB Microvaults over the space of several months. a whole range of controllers, NANDS and PCBs while packaging and everything external stays the same.

Sometimes a 4GB or 16GB is very close, same PCB but with an extra NAND chip. Would be slightly different mix, maybe same in some ways, but as with all these devices, it is a lottery. In fact Flash memory Characteristics would make a fantastic PRNG

thanks for that dude, will keep a lookout.

wasn't ccl but yes its that device and model - tineye revealed quite a few retailers using the image.
as you say, difficult ... unless you can see the actual device for real.

PRNG - aye: the nand hobby for life ..... i can see me developing a glasgow suntan at this rate
(pale from lack of exposure to daylight, kinda like Neo - save you googling )

remind me, why did i get involved in this hamster-wheel for humans thing .....

To save you from:
-painting the house
-mowing the lawn
-pulling weeds
-talking to spouse
etc

the lawn! sh*t, the lawn ........

Maybe drop this guy a message:
