I've used and tested several brands, and my personal opinion is that this SAMSUNG, although more expensive, is best for massive storage.....again, in MY opinion. Good luck to you. Like all memory products, it starts out expensive (~$50+), and just keeps getting cheaper.....and that's great for all of us. But I also like the many bytes I can record or transfer very quickly. That pertains to all manner of stuff, including 4K+ video. That's what I use it for, and so far I've acquired more than a dozen of these 512 Gb & 9-1Tb USB's and I can't blame a single one for causing a major error, although I did have one 1 Tb destroyed by a crashing hard drive--this was verified by the FORTECT internet company. I keep looking for errors, but there's been nothing that I can blame the device for. Knock on wood....and the fact they keep getting cheaper is pretty good too. When you duplicate as many bytes as I have, back and forth sometimes (I don't like fragmented files), and the byte count is still always exact -- for half a Terabyte it's good, not to mention a full Terabyte, extremely good. I'm old school....but ain't digital great? I remember trying to do this 50 years ago (YES!) with analog.....and I was consequently very sad.....a lot. NOTE: All's good, but to be specific, I really like the PRO version with the connected USB. That's great. And, I also re-format in NTFS...all I want is the memory for remote portable drive use. That's ME. That's all I want to say. --> all for NOW, that is. I have finally noticed how HOT these little 1 Tb guys really are......can't keep your finger on them when they're working and recording so fast. I'm not saying this as a FINAL condemnation, because it MIGHT even be within tolerance for this thing. However, if it's ONE thing that I've learned after 38-1/2 years experience in electronics, it's that HEAT ultimately kills most failed electrical devices, big & small. I started with audio repair and ended with programming Excalibur and other fuze stuff for ARL. HEAT kills, sure, but I still will admit that it may not be so conclusive, after all. I've gotten many of these micro devices that fit on the tip of your finger and so far, they've worked extremely well, even ALMOST perfect, I must admit....NO MORE than a few bytes altered during transfer, with absolutely NO failure noted (I'm told by a computer repair owner that the memory will work flawlessly for a time, and ultimately will just give out all of a sudden--ANSWER, use BACKUP! ).....but, I'm still thinking of clip-leading a little fan to come on every time I apply power to a circuit, or, maybe even getting a tiny little heat sink. I don't know. But I'm sure going to continue testing these things out......just be aware that 'heat kills', period. (however, I have to concede one thing....I haven't seen a failure yet with these micro devices, hot or not) MORE....Oct 24, 2024.....yes, it's more. And not a single failure with many hours of transferring, reading & writing ---with over a dozen of these big memories (1/2 & ONE Terabytes) being used a great deal, I cannot recall a single failure that was the chip's doing. Hot, yes, but NO failures. And, at most, while transferring a Terabyte of data, fragmented or otherwise, the most difference in the whole lot was no more a few bytes....and I kinda laughed that off. No problem, probably due to late spot editing. Also, last year I mentioned the 'defragging' of the memory during a 1Tb-to-1Tb session. I had a terribly fragmented chip that I transferred (yesterday), and it took about 3 1/2 hours, give or take, and AGAIN showed about 25 Gigabytes MORE memory available after the transfer for the new chip, with identical memory capacities on both, checked by Properties function. This is about what I reported before, so with the accuracy & acceptable speed (for me) the de-fragging effect made the copy faster by reading/writing faster afterwards, along with greater accuracy, it NOW being sequencial..... if you can believe that. Thank progress for digital technology, because I remember the analog days do very well. Same data, but much, much different results. FINAL edit....Dec 22, 2024.....This is so long now, I might as well add something I left out......the reason digital is mostly 'more accurate' than analog is primarily due to something called 'handshaking', whereby at the eol (end-of-line) the byte-count is compared before advancing and denoting an ERROR if it is not identical. Other than that, it's just SPEED, which just keeps going up and up in digital land……the Japanese have affirmed, with COST no issue for conductors, that the INTERNET could transfer in the neighborhood of ~1000 movies per second, if they are correct, and I really believe they are. Have you ever wondered WHY streaming seems to work so well? 081725: STILL GOOD. NO FAILUREs early 09/25 I jinxed it--GOT 1 FAILURE......HOWEVER, I could not blame the Samsung for SURE because later that day my hard drive crashed, and it crashed 8 more times next few weeks, and was kept in software perfect operation only by FORTECT internet scan/repair service.....I asked their opinion as to the cause of the SSD failure and their professional opinion was most likely the failing hard drive. I kept the internet running during these crashes only due to their online program software-restoration each time. Conclusion: these 1Tb SSDs are still very reliable. Not cheap, but good. mjm

The Samsung EVO Select MicroSD 256GB has given my devices a massive boost in both speed and storage. I use it for my Nintendo Switch, Android phone, and GoPro, and it keeps up flawlessly with 4K video recording, fast file transfers, and installing large games. The UHS-I U3, A2, V30 ratings aren't just marketing—it truly supports fast read/write speeds and sustained performance for high-bandwidth use. The included SD adapter works perfectly and lets me plug the card straight into my laptop for moving photos and videos. Formatting is fast, and compatibility is excellent—never any failed writes or errors. Compared to cheaper brands, the EVO Select stands out for reliability and the speed to launch apps and load files instantly. After several months, it remains error-free even after heavy usage and frequent device swaps. If you need trustworthy portable storage for gaming, cameras, or mobile, this card is a winner. Highly recommended for anyone who needs fast, dependable microSD performance!

This memory card is excellent and works exactly as described. I popped it in and it was ready to go immediately with no issues. The speed is great for what I need, and having the adapter included is super convenient. Definitely a reliable choice if you need more storage.

Works great but I'm not sure how long this one will last since my last one died pretty early for some reason. Compatible with most computers and can be used to store games on Nintendo Switch perfectly. So no complaints but again worried about the longevity of it in general.

Purchased two different times! [1] 256gb (x2) Got one for my phone and my mothers. Works like a charm! [2] Ended up buying a 1TB version Needed more storage for my Steam Deck. Bought a 1tb EVO for $90. Originally when I inserted it before formatting, it stated it had 955gb and when I formatted it, it went to 938.9gb (Same as my steam decks original storage) All in all, I am glad I bought this, I needed storage asap as my steam deck was almost out of storage

The SAMSUNG EVO Select 512GB Micro SD Card has been completely dependable since I started using it in 2023. It’s worked flawlessly in every device I’ve tried from my smartphones, tablets, and to my kids’ Nintendo Switch without a single failure or data issue. The transfer speeds are fast, and it handles Full HD and 4K video smoothly. For the storage capacity and consistent reliability, it’s absolutely worth the price. Samsung continues to be one of the few brands I fully trust for memory cards.

This is a great microSD card. Samsung EVO cards have been flawless in Mavic 3 Pro and Mavic 4 Pro drones which require a card that can handle high speed writes. These are competitively priced with the major brand for microSD cards and I've found them to be less expensive particularly during sales. For a card that can handle every task you throw at it and not drain your bank account, this one is recommended.
