I’m interested in learning about this software. If you do amend this article, would you please note at the top of the article that it has been updated? That way I’ll know to re-read it.

Thanks, Les

BTW, have you heard any rumors about any new/future technology for SD/MicroSD cards that might improve their speeds, especially in RND4K Q1T1? I realize that the overall quality and reliability has steadily improved over the years, but it would be nice to see transfer speeds of small file sizes increase.

We are working with Refresh Pro and Recovery Pro now and I may amend th article. As for the links, the 256GB is not avail so it is defaulting to the $128GB. Tx ahead.

I visited their website, and found this very interesting information here:

https://shop.progradedigital.com/pages/prograde-digital-microsdxc-uhs-ii-v60-card

“REFRESH PRO ENABLED
Our microSDXC memory cards include everything you need for uninterrupted high-speed photography and video capture – including Refresh Pro. Refresh Pro performs two key functions: health monitoring and sanitizing. The health function measures the overall health of the memory card and provides feedback on the remaining life of the flash memory. The sanitize operation performs a deep clean, restoring the memory card to its original factory performance. Sanitize has been a function of CFast(TM) cards since they were introduced and ProGrade Digital now brings this functionality to SDXC(TM), microSD(TM), and CFexpress (TM) cards. ”

I guess Refresh Pro software is provided with the purchase of their cards. It is a nice feature though:

There are 3 testimonials near the bottom of of the page in the first link I provided. The one by Kennith W. is quite telling about how robust the construction and quality of these cards are.

Les, you have the price of the 128 GB card listed, not the 256 GB card.

As always, great review. I appreciate that you add the SD Association chart with your SD reviews, as their different classes are confusing.

If you need the best, ProGrade would be about impossible to beat.

Maybe you could add a new Review category for MicroSD, SD and CFExpress cards and card readers, as this category has become more important to everyone in the past couple of years due to all of the growth of electronic devices that depend on them.

Thanks for the review, Les. I probably would not have heard of this company it weren’t for you.
