 Just worked for two months... :( January 4, 2009
It worked as advertised... for 8 weeks.
Then it just broke. I have tried formatting it from Windows, Mac Os, Linux, using fdisk, using cameras, using gadgets, and nothing.
Just stopped working...
 Big, Fast, Inexpensive SDHC Memory Card - Recommended! January 2, 2009
The "Transcend 8 GB SDHC Class 6 Flash Memory Card" is a very good value for an 8gb SDHC storage card. I am using this card in a Creative Labs 4gb Zen MP3 player to hold music and pictures. Here are my observations:
* Inexpensive for the Size
* Very Fast Transfer Speeds
The card works as expected, recommended!
Solid card January 1, 2009
Super price and have been reliable. Have had the first one for about a year with no problems at all, and just added a second one. I've successfully used them with my Canon S3 and for file storage with a card reader.
 1 out of 3 cards failed within the first hour of use January 1, 2009
I bought 3 Transcend 16 GB Class 6 SDHC cards along with the Canon AVCHD HF100 flash-based HD camcorder. 1 card exhibited a buffer overrun error in the camera within the first hour of video. Then the camcorder wouldn't even read the card or the videos already on it. Luckily, I was able to recover the videos using data recovery software. Incidentally, the other 2 identical Transcend cards I have didn't seem to have the issue, but a 33% failure rate is bad news. I'm staying away from Transcend from now on.
Great Card, Great Price January 1, 2009
I bought this card together with a new Canon 990IS Powershot digital camera because I read that the card that ships with the camera holds roughly 4 photos--more like 2 photos! So far, I've put 563 photos @ 14.7 megapixel resolution and about 2 min. of high-def video on the Transcend card with no problems -- no delays, no "card full" messages. I've also used it with the Transcend Multi-card Reader to upload photos on my old Mac Powerbook G4 (running Tiger OS) and my new MacBook Pro (running Leopard OS), and it functions just like a mini-hard drive. Super-speedy transfer rate, and fantastic price, what more could you ask for?
