256 gb micro sd cards when?
Probably around Q2 2016. Though we could jump straight to 320GB mSD chips. Only a matter of months now.
>>51906679
Next year most likely.
>>51906679
the better question is when will 128gb flash drives be given away in cereal boxes
>tfw still have 128mb microsd card
I thought we would stop at 2gb. God damn
>>51907143
what do you even do with old sd/microsd cards?
I feel bad throwing still working stuff away
>>51907152
I keep them in a metal box with other things that remind me about the past. It's weird, whenever I open that box I usually doze off and start to daydream about stuff in the past.
>>51907152
Store them for later use, it's not like an old PSU it can be used again.
>>51907152
don't worry, corporations do it all the time
>>51907152
for porn in my chromebook =)
>>51906679
They already have them. Open up your SSD.
>>51906679
my dad literally got a 200GB one in the male. Yeah, I would fill that bitch up so fast
>>51907152
depending on the size, you could always make a mini terminal with it for people who come over and want to use your computer. So instead you get a shitty keyboard, shitty mouse, shitty monitor and a shitty computer that has no HDD in it and you pop that bitch in, make it load Mint or Ubuntu or hell, even an Internet terminal. Done it, works great if done right.
Or make a mini computer in general out of it. just remember the amt of read writes it has, at some point it's not going to work.

You'll literally never reach the number of read/writes required to wear it out
>>51907939
huh, OK then. That's interesting. Then again, I download a lot of shit so who knows. How many is it?
>>51907963
Lots and lots
>>51907971
damn anon. I dont know. That's a lot.

what defines storage space in a microSD card?

What the fuck are you even asking?

how to do this?

microsd cards are great technology, just like passive cooling
>>51908663
wat
>>51908566
Silicon transistors define the storage space.
>>51906679
Theyre coming out with a 512gb one I believe
when are they gonna be faster though?
>>51908737
Be thankful you can even get any speed out of them.
The RAID chips (read: controller chips) on these things are miniscule as fuck. On an SSD it takes up like 20% of the size of it just to get decent enough processing power. Now shrink that shit 89x and you get the shit speeds you see now.

1. get a simple thing like crunch bang installed on a chip. Literally, you can install linux on a chip. I've done it. It's not hard. Just need a USB with Unetbootin and that
2. when it prompts to load from HDD instead have it boot from the SD/USB drive and done.
Linux will now boot up. It's not complicated, just takes something like 10 minutes. Not like you can't have what to start when the OS comes up. Like how steam and discord app and some other things work.
I remember getting a 128mb USB back in 2005 for $25. I was 10.
>1 or even 2 TB micro sd cards will exist by the time I'm 30
I really hope WW3 doesn't happen, tech is going to be amazing in the future.
Or everything will be forced onto the "cloud", drop the nukes if that happens.
>>51908826
WW3 is going to happen and it's going to be America and Russia's fault.
>>51908826
You kidding me? The technology sector thrived during the wars.
During WWII, we had advanced cryptography, experiments with electromagnetism, and the beginning of computers.
In fact if it wasn't for the threat of Russia during the cold wars, I don't think computers would be where they are today.
Imagine now if there was a WWIII. Government investment into quantum computers, more advanced cryptography, faster networks, etc... all things useful in a war.

I remember finding out about Sandisk Pro Media Stick Duos (w/e the thing the PSP took) and getting a steal on a 4GB card for 50 bucks. Today I can get 100 times that with that adapter and two mSD cards for only 4 times the price. I would have flunked out of school if I sent that to my past self.
>>51908950
Except WW3 would go nuclear. Nuclear winter / total Armageddon is over exaggerated but we'd still have bigger fucking problems that fitting more kawaii animu on your tablet.
>>51908950
Ww3 would be over within a few hours.
The world has a active supply of thousands upon thousands of nukes, and ones that are so much more powerful than the original two.
>>51908644
is that thing configured in raid 0?
>>51909143
yes
>>51908774
Since we can fit more storage in less space now, can manufacturers now devote more of the available space to a better controller this giving us lighting fast speed?
>>51906679
Bruh there are already 2TB microsd cards, wtf do I need a 256GB one for
>>51908826
>1 or even 2 TB micro sd cards will exist by the time I'm 30
They already exist

Probably never as Sandisk only made it to 200GB
>>51909342
Oh, well 10TB.

Why would it go nuclear? MAD is still a thing, why would you near-guarantee a situation where everyone looses if you thought there was a chance you could win? It *could* go nuclear once it becomes clear one side will win, but both sides will be aware of that and have de-escalation plans in place.

But there is a limit on flash memory. And it's laughably low for some micro sd cards.
I have an ide zif -> cf -> sd -> usd adapter that I can put in my computer and install windows on and it will chew up that micro sd in a few months.
