Expended Capacity of Flash Memory Devices – Click, Save and Sleep


DHC memory card stands for secure digital high capacity memory card. SDHC memory card is a flash memory device with data storage capacity of maximum 32 GB. If you need more data storage capacity you should go for SDXC(extended memory ). SDXC memory card maximum capacity is 2TB. According to SD association you could store 100 HD movies, 60 hours of HD recording, or 17,000 high resolution photos on a SDXC card.

As the storage capacity of flash memory devices is expending year by year , the risk of data loss is also rising. People have stopped taking the backup of the files and they keep all the data in flash memory devices.

Suppose your 2 TB SDXC card does not have any space and you replace it with a new flash memory card. After few months when you insert your old fully filled memory card into your
camera to delete few pictures from it, it shows error message “memory card locked” or “Memory card corrupted”. It means that you are going to loose your 17,000 memorable photos and uncountable memories that attached with that photos. You can't imagine your condition in that situation any more.
