About Hardware SanDisk Ultra MicroSDHC 8GB

The SanDisk Ultra MicroSDHC 8GB is an 8GB memory card that supports Class 10 UHS-I speeds, designed for everyday storage purposes such as storing photos, videos, or light files on mobile devices such as smartphones, digital cameras, or tablets. Although the capacity is relatively small by today's standards, this card is still useful for basic purposes or as backup media.

With a read speed of up to 80MB/s theoretically, this microSD card is enough to support HD video playback and light data transfer. However, the limited capacity makes it less suitable for storing large amounts of apps or multimedia files.

The test was conducted using a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6 equipped with 12GB DDR4 Dual Channel RAM and Windows 11 22H2 operating system. The card was tested through a VENTION USB 3.0 Card Reader with a GL3224 controller connected to a USB 3.1 Gen 1 port.

Based on the test results with CrystalDiskMark, the read speed obtained was 46.70 MB/s and the write speed was 11.73 MB/s. Meanwhile, in the Cross Platform Disk Test, the read speed reached 40.87 MB/s and the write speed 8.02 MB/s. Although it does not reach the theoretical maximum performance, these results are quite representative for light daily use.

Device Test:

Device: Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6
RAM: 12GB DDR4 3200MHz Dual Channel (8+4)
OS: Windows 11 22H2
USB: USB 3.1 Gen 1

About Hardware Maestromemory MicroSDXC 128GB

MaestroMemory MicroSDXC 128GB is an affordable yet reliable external storage solution, designed for use in various devices such as smartphones, tablets, digital cameras, and laptops. Supported by UHS-I and Class 10 technology, this memory card offers high data transfer speeds to support multimedia needs such as video recording, storing high-resolution photos, and running mobile applications without any significant obstacles.

The large capacity of 128GB provides ample space to store important files such as work documents, music collections, and video content. In addition, MaestroMemory also emphasizes power efficiency and resistance to various environmental conditions, such as high and low temperatures, making it suitable for long-term use in various situations. The card is compatible with the exFAT file system which is the storage standard for modern devices, maximizing space usage and compatibility.

The test was conducted using a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6 equipped with an Intel Core i5-1135G7 processor, NVIDIA MX350 GPU, and 12GB RAM, with Windows 11 Home 23H2 operating system. The tests were conducted through the USB 3.1 Gen 1 port using a VENTION USB 3.0 card reader with GL3224 controller, in a freshly opened card condition, with no files, and the default “Quick Removal” policy from Device Manager.

The benchmark results show quite competitive performance in its class. In tests using CrystalDiskMark, the 128GB MaestroMemory recorded read speeds of 93.41 MB/s and write speeds of 55.99 MB/s. Further testing with ATTO Disk Benchmark (64M) showed read speeds of 92.09 MB/s and write speeds of 45.47 MB/s, while Cross Platform Disk Test recorded speeds of 91.13 MB/s for read and 47.95 MB/s for write. These figures show that this microSD card is capable of meeting daily needs such as Full HD video recording, installation of large applications, or transferring large amounts of data.

However, it should be noted that we did not find any official information about the manufacturer of MaestroMemory, including the company's website or technical documentation that is usually found on reputable brands. We found this microSD card widely sold in the Indonesian marketplace, and based on discussions, there is speculation that MaestroMemory is a sub-brand of V-GeN Indonesia, although this claim has yet to be officially verified. If you try to search for MaestroMemory on international marketplaces, you will most likely not find it.

For additional validation, we also conducted a capacity integrity test using H2testw, and the results showed that the MaestroMemory 128GB microSD passed the test, with the correct capacity and no damaged areas or fake storage detected.

Overall, the MaestroMemory MicroSDXC 128GB is an attractive option for users looking for a large capacity memory card at a competitive price, as long as it is used in accordance with its class and segmentation. As a wise move, users are advised to always perform authenticity checks and post-purchase performance tests.
