Sandisk extreme is cheaper than the nintendo licensed sandisk sd card. It’s overkill but the sandisk ultra which is even more affordable seems is always out of stock. Sandisk ultra is probably the best value for the switch from sandisk if you could find the 512 available

Not always the case
@evgeniibeliatinskikh7481 Жыл бұрын
When you're choosing a micro SD card for a game console or a phone, it's important to look at something called IOPS, not just the linear writing speed. Why? Because consoles like the Nintendo Switch often need to quickly access many small files during game loading and gameplay, not just read or write big chunks of data in a straight line. The key is to look for SD cards with an 'A2' rating. This A2 rating shows that the card is really good at this quick accessing of small files. It's usually the case that these A2 cards also have something called UHS Speed Class and Video Speed Class ratings, but don't worry about these too much. In simple terms: when you're shopping for a new SD card, focus on finding an A2 card from a brand you trust. That's the best way to make sure your games load and run smoothly.

What is the difference between a1 and a2?
@evgeniibeliatinskikh7481 10 ай бұрын
@OddYDaPiMp, the main difference between A1 and A2 is their ability to handle small data. A1 can handle 1,500 reads and 500 writes per second, while A2 can handle 4,000 reads and 2,000 writes. For devices like phones or the Nintendo Switch, where you load a game or read/write small data during gameplay, this matters. It helps reduce any possible lag. But it shouldn't impact the gaming experience unless the SD card is extremely slow or faulty. Cards not labeled A1 or A2? They often fall behind the A1 in terms of performance. Both A1 and A2 cards typically offer fast continuous reading and writing speeds. So, A1 or A2 cards are a good choice unless you have specific needs like high-definition video recording. For the Nintendo Switch, some games might load a bit faster on an A1 or A2 card, maybe by 1-15 seconds. But it's always good to check game-specific tests before deciding to upgrade. The real benefit is seen when transferring a lot of data. If you're moving data between the Switch and the SD card or making backups, you could save a lot of time with an A1 or A2 card, maybe around 20 minutes or even an hour. In my area, the price difference between A1 and A2 cards isn't much. I usually go for the better one for a smoother experience, especially for backups. However, if you have a large SD card for your Switch and rarely transfer files, you're likely okay with what you have.

@evgeniibeliatinskikh7481 9 ай бұрын
@@ParanoiaGentlman, in some sense, yes. A SanDisk 512GB Nintendo-branded card costs around €80-100, while a slightly faster Samsung Evo of the same size costs €35-40. If you don't get a Nintendo-branded card for free or as a bonus with a Switch purchase, then it's definitely a better option to buy just any other A2 class card from the shelf.

@@Marrero_05 That's really tough to say. If you're downloading a lot of games like Doom Eternal, then not as much as if you were downloading games like Cult of the Lamb. A lot of my big games, Witcher 3 for instance, were on the cartridge. But I have a lot of indie games that are digital and maybe a gig max. So I can't really answer that considering it depends on what you like to play.

I highly recommend sticking with the well known and reputable memory brands such as Sandisk, Samsung, PNY, and Lexar. I stay away from SP (Silicon Power) after one of their microsd cards failed and got so hot inside my retropie that it burned my hand after I ejected it. The one I replaced it with from a reputable brand worked fine.

to minmax, what read speed and what write speed exactly because i think i found a 12 dollar one but it has 100 mb/s read and 60mb/s write
@128KB Жыл бұрын
Providing it has 100mb/s read you'll be fine, just be wary of cheap cards being fake etc

I am not sure what kind of SD card I should get for my Nintendo switch I’m not really sure what kind is accurate so I don’t get scammed so I’m just wondering if there’s actually a good brand of an SD card so I can put it in my switch without anything bad happening because I’m kind of new to it. I just got my switch last year and I started using it this year so I’m just curious.

Check the link in the description or just ensure it's a Sandisk for good quality

What about white and red sandisk it's 100 read and write 128 gb it's about 10$ it is worth it ?

The only thing different about the Nintendo sd card vs the regular sandisk sd xc card is the logo. That’s about it. It’s essentially the same thing.

I bought a new switch AND a new card (more storage). I transferred the data from my old card to the PC, and back onto the new card in the PC. Then I put the new card into the new Switch (now Primary). The new card shows the data was transferred (120gb), but now I have to redownload all the games, which will be about another 90GBs. How did my old 128gb card turn into a 220gb card on my new switch?
@alo730 8 ай бұрын
How you need to transfer the game back into the switch inorder to play it? Or can it play straight from the sd card? Such as a sandisk

Just got my Lite couple days ago. About to buy a microsd at the moment and got so overwhelmed by class10, UHS, speeds, and all the names like extreme pro ultra plus evo etc etc. Still am so confused. If I can sort of grasp this is.... get a card thats uhs1 around 100mb/s. I was about to buy a card that was way too fast for my switch anyways so now I have dialed back abit and gone for more storage size than before. I just dont want to make a mistake and have my games tank hard and run slow etc. tldr which sd card = uh yes
@128KB 2 жыл бұрын
That's right though, providing its around 100mb/s you're good, just make sure it's a good brand

yeah off brand SD cards like sandisk is cheaper then nintendo brand. like when i went best buy to order online. there was a 1TB micro SD card sandisc for 200 dollers canada money. and for the nintendo brand it was 300 dollers for a 1TB micro SD card. i went with the biggest because my 256GB is full now. but it lasted me 4 years so thats really good. the 1TB micro SD card will last me the whole switchs life since switch 2 will be next year. i just hope switch 2 will still use micro SD card.
@128KB 11 ай бұрын
SanDisk isn't an off brand, it's one of/the leading brand in SD cards. The Nintendo cards are actually made by SanDisk, they just cost more because you're paying for the Nintendo logo on it. Glad yours is going strong and I'm sure Switch 2 will take microSD cards too but maybe the after A2 cards for better performance.

Ik this might be a bit late to the party so to speak but I bought a 1Tb (Extreme Pro) micro sd card from SamDisk or whatever it's called thinking it would be compatible but when I tried to use it the card wasn't being detected. Unsure if it's just not the right type of card & I need to get one of those official switch sd cards or downgrade to a lower gig one. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
