FAQs

What is the difference between SDXC and SDHC?

SDXC (Secure Digital eXtended Capacity) supports capacities over 32GB up to 2TB, while SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) is limited to 32GB. The SanDisk Extreme SDXC 256GB card is therefore larger than any SDHC card.

Can I use this card in my older camera that only accepts SD cards?

This is an SDXC card. While it's backward compatible with some devices that support SDXC, it will not work in devices that are strictly SDHC or SD-only. Always check your device's manual for compatibility.

What does V30 mean?

V30 stands for Video Speed Class 30. It guarantees a minimum sustained write speed of 30MB/s, which is essential for recording high-resolution video formats like 4K UHD without interruption.

How do I format the card?

You can format the card using your camera's built-in formatting function or a computer. On a computer, right-click the drive and select 'Format.' Be aware that formatting erases all data on the card.

What is the warranty period for this card?

> Info needed: Warranty details are not provided in the product information. Please refer to SanDisk's official website or packaging for warranty terms.

Can I use this card for continuous shooting of RAW photos?

Yes, with write speeds up to 130MB/s and U3 rating, this card is well-suited for capturing high-resolution RAW photos in burst mode.

Troubleshooting

Card not recognized by device

Ensure the device is compatible with SDXC cards. Try inserting the card into a different device or a card reader. If the card is still not recognized, it may need to be formatted (note: formatting erases all data).

Slow transfer speeds

Verify that you are using a compatible card reader. For maximum speeds, use a SanDisk Professional PRO-READER. Ensure your computer's USB port and system are not bottlenecks.

Unable to write or save files to the card

Check if the write-protect switch on the side of the SD card adapter (if used) is in the locked position. Ensure the card is not full and that there are no file system errors. Try reformatting the card.

Lost or corrupted files

Immediately stop using the card to prevent overwriting lost data. Use the included RescuePRO Deluxe software to attempt recovery.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Fast read speeds significantly improve workflow efficiency.
  • Sufficient write speeds for capturing 4K video and rapid photo bursts.
  • Robust build quality offers peace of mind in various environments.
  • Includes valuable data recovery software.
  • Wide compatibility with SDXC-enabled devices.

Cons

  • Maximum read speeds are achieved only with specific SanDisk Professional PRO-Readers.
  • The card is an SDXC format and may not be compatible with older SDHC-only devices.
  • While durable, it is not indestructible and should still be handled with care.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The SanDisk Extreme SDXC card is ready to use out of the package. Simply insert it into any SDXC-compatible device, such as a digital camera, camcorder, or computer with an SD card slot.

Compatibility: This card is formatted as SDXC and is compatible with devices that support the SDXC standard. It is backward compatible with some SDHC devices that can read SDXC cards, but it cannot be used in SDHC-only devices. Always check your device's specifications for SDXC compatibility.

Care: To ensure longevity and data integrity:

  • Avoid exposing the card to extreme temperatures outside its specified operating range (-25°C to 85°C).
  • Protect the card from physical damage, such as bending or dropping.
  • Keep the card's contacts clean. If necessary, gently wipe them with a dry, lint-free cloth. Never use liquids or abrasive cleaners.
  • Always use the 'Safely Remove Hardware' or 'Eject' function on your computer before physically removing the card to prevent data corruption.
