Sandisk has launched a new series of SDHC Extreme Pro memory cards. With data transfer speeds advertised at 95 MBps, this card could shape up to be the fastest in its category ... by a long way!

Incredible Speed!



As expected, Sandisk's card crushes the competition. We measured read speeds of up to 94 MBps and write speeds of 81 MBps. We've never seen a card that fast before! To get speeds like this, however, we recommend you get a USB 3.0 card reader, otherwise transfer speeds will probably end up being limited by the USB 2.0 connection (approximately 30 MBps max.).
