Kingston SDXC UHS-1 Speed Class 3 Flash Card (64GB) Review – Welcoming 4K Video Flash Card Storage

REPORT ANALYSIS AND FINAL THOUGHTS

Throughout our testing, one common element that we saw across the board was the write speed. In each of our three benchmarks, the write speed reached a write speed between 71 and 73 MB/s, which showcases the UHS-1 Speed Class 3 rating’s efficiency and ability to be relied on. However, when considering the performance of the SDXC card, the write speed does fall slightly shorter than we would have liked to see. On the flip side, the read speeds were almost perfect for each of the tests, of course with the exception of QuickBench.

When checking out Amazon, the only UHS-1 Speed Class 3 SDXC flash card on the first page of our search results was our Kingston SDXC UHS-1 Speed Class 3 flash card. In regards to availability, this puts the Kingston flash card at one of the most readily available UHS-1 Speed Class 3 SDXC flash cards. When taking a look at pricing, we were expecting slightly higher price points, especially when considering the fact that this is one of few flash cards currently available with the UHS-1 Speed Class 3 rating.

    Wow, these 4K speeds are really depressing. Although it’s expected, since sequential workload is most expected on these kinds of cards anyway..

    I hate SD cards of any kind. Use one of those Thunderbolt portable drives that consist of two SSD in RAID 0. No more speed problems, and you’ll get tons more storage, too.

      SD card lover when you consider that they are a necessity in photography. The fact that I have a 256GB SD card in my EOS 6D is as comforting as the fact that it’s performance (compared to that of only a short time ago) results in visible upgrade in HDR backlit shots where 3 shots are taken and combined.
