32GB Evo Plus Micro SD Card – Samsung | Class 10 | UHS-I

In this digital age, our devices are all hungry for memory space. Is your phone chirping because you’ve overloaded it with photos, or have you lost another printer’s SD card to the 3D gremlins? We can’t have too many spare memory cards as Makers. But when it comes to all the different types and rating systems available to us, things might get complicated. Memory cards like these Samsung 32GB Micro SD Cards are handy little banks of information with a modern speed class and UHS rating. Read on if you are interested in finding out what these details mean to you as an end user.

These Samsung 32GB Micro SD Cards run at awesome speeds as an Evo Plus model with its ratings of class 10 and UHS-I. Class 10 is a standard speed rating which means it has been stress tested to operate at a minimum of 10MB/s sequential read and write speed. These speeds are important for video recording and other media that typically record in sequential blocks of memory. However, because software applications tend to read and write from random blocks of the memory, this standard class rating doesn’t affect application speed too much, but it does affect the speed at which data is written and read when copying files to and from the card.

The next cool feature of these cards is that they are UHS-I rating, which is a high speed generation. This rating essentially goes above and beyond what the Class 1 to 10 rating can achieve. The Samsung 32GB Micro SD Cards has ultimate sequential read speeds of 95MB/s and write speeds of 90MB/s. We suspect that it’s only a matter of time before the UHS classification makes the older Class 1 to 10 ratings obsolete.

Samsung 32GB Evo Plus Micro SD Cards are classically used to boost your cellphone’s memory, but they make perfect general-purpose SD Cards for uploading print files to 3D Printers, storing backup copies of important projects, updating firmware on controller boards and microcontrollers, data logging, as well as many more standard types of applications. This, when coupled with the included Full-sized SD Card adapter, makes it a valuable tool for Makers… as long as no 3D gremlins steal it again.
