I'm Happy.......2007-06-02

I thought i would get an M card. But it turned out that they did indeed ship the regular 512 MB XD Card. It is a FujiFilm card although shipped under the SanDisk trademark. It is a great add on for my Fuji FinePix S5000. I just had a 128MB card and i often used to run out of memory. This 512MB card gives me more to memory to experiment and try new things without worrying about exhausting memory. Recommended buy..

Buyer Beware !!.......2007-04-26

Buyer beware !! I ordered two of these units, expecting the STANDARD version, as pictured AND described.

"Works with all xD enabled devices" and "Compatible to all Olympus and Fuji xD-compatible digital cameras "

Instead, I received two "M" units, which will NOT work in some older digital cameras, like Fiji. Amazon DID refund my money, but it took them a month.

Amazon needs to advertise the correct product.......2007-03-23

I ordered this product, the standard xD card, from this very page. When I received it, just as Best Buy had done twice already, I received the M-type card. I do not know what is so hard for retailers to comprehend about advertising correctly and sending the correct product to customers. I am very frustrated with Amazon at the moment, especially after I called to speak to someone to resolve it quickly, and I wound up speaking to someone who could not speak good English and just repeated everything I said to him while he looked it up online. It was very frustrating and poor customer service. Now, I am waiting for Amazon to email me back. After this experience, I am unsure how likely I will be to order from Amazon again unless they ship me the correct item immediately.

The first one I ordered works great. I ordered another one 2 weeks later and it was not the right one. Up to now, I have not received the replacement for it. The xd card itself is not a problem

Difference among xD formats.......2006-10-16

This Sandisk SDXD-512 xD card is a "standard" xD card. The xD "Picture Card" flash card comes in three flavors: standard (up to 512MB), Type M (512MB, 1GB, 2GB), and Type H (512MB or 1GB). The "H" stands for "high speed" and is the latest format allowing in theory for reads and writes up to 3 times as fast as Type M cards. Interestingly, Type M xD cards are 20% slower than "standard" 256MB or 512MB xD cards. For capacity 512MB or above, you won't find any more standard xD's; you'll find only M or H ones.

To see if your Fujifilm or Olympus camera is compatible with an M or H card, go to their websites and check out the compatibility charts. (Amazon doesn't allow links so I can't include them here but you can e-mail me if you can't find the compatibility charts.)

Sandisk xD cards are, in general, reliable, as long as you stay with 512MB or lower. Another caveat is when you buy a Sandisk (or Fujifilm or Olympus) xD in store, be sure to get a package that's marked "Made in Japan." Only two companies actually manufacture the xD cards: Toshiba of Japan and Samsung of South Korea. Samsung cards, in my experience, have serious quality problems and *WILL* fail sooner rather than later. Toshiba ones are much more reliable; none of my Toshiba-made cards have failed even under heavy usage. Therefore, you should never trust xD cards that are marked "Made in S. Korea." Be sure to shop around until you find Toshiba ("made in Japan") cards. This tip will save you lots of precious memories and from lots of headaches later on. Unfortuantely, this verification is hard to do when you shop on Amazon or online; I can only say "good luck"! At least you have 30 days to return or exchange when you buy from Amazon.
