Dell Min 9 owners: Have you used SD cards in slot for extra storage?
My Mini 9 is running out of hdd space as it only has 8
gigs How well does buying and using and SD card in the side slot work for helping with that? And.... who has best deals on SD cards in decent sizes? |

I have found the transfer rate of SD cards too slow to use them as a serious
alternative for storage. Camper wrote in message ... My Mini 9 is running out of hdd space as it only has 8 gigs How well does buying and using and SD card in the side slot work for helping with that? And.... who has best deals on SD cards in decent sizes? |

And.... who has best deals on SD cards in decent sizes? I use an 8GB SDHC in my Asus 1000HE as "extra- I don't care about forever" type storage. I never noticed a "performance" issue, but when I use my netbook, I'm not in "performance" mode. (insert "sipping something cold" sound here) It's a Kingston Brand I bought at Newegg for about the same price as I can buy a 16GB now. Sometimes Kingston.com has specials too, but I have just had really good luck with Newegg. Bernie |

Thanks Bernie I will chk it out I had considered buying a RunCore 32 gig ssd but at $120 I just don't want to put that much into this netbook as I'm expecting netSLATES to hit market soon |

I have a 16gb SD card in the SD card slot. I use it to store assorted
files, docs, music, etc. Works fine. Transcend 16gb class 6. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820208410 --- Bob Anderson*Bitwisebob Eugene Oregon * * * * * * * * * * * |
