exceria plus 256gb high endurance 128gb review a

   Believe it or not one of the things that used to concern people prior to purchasing a handheld camera (or even a car dash camera) was they how much extra they'd need to spend on an SD/microSD card. This was of course many years back but it recently came to my attention that there are still people out there who still consider the extra cost of getting an SD/microSD card as too much. In reality however prices of both SD and microSD card have dropped considerably to a point where people can now find very affordable 64-128GB capacity models. KIOXIA recently updated their product lines to include the new Exceria Plus SD and Exceria High Endurance microSD card models which I’ll be testing today.


   KIOXIA Europe GmbH (formerly known as Toshiba Memory Europe GmbH) is the European based subsidiary of KIOXIA Corporation, a worldwide leading supplier of Flash Memory and Solid State Drives (SSDs). Toshiba Memory is known as the Inventor of NAND flash memory in 1987 and was the first in the world to begin mass-producing it in 1991. Under its new name, KIOXIA remains a storage leader today with its BiCS FLASH 3D technology, focusing on innovation, quality and reliability. This technology is an important component in almost all electronic devices where data need to be stored. KIOXIA is leading a new era by providing advanced memory solutions to enrich people’s lives. By evolving "memory", KIOXIA creates uplifting experiences and changes the world.


   Currently KIOXIA has the Exceria Plus SDXC cards (U3/V30/C10) available in 64/128/256GB capacities and the Exceria High Endurance microSDXC cards (U3/V30/C10 - U1/V10 for the 32GB capacity) available in 32/64/128/256GB capacities (both are based on the UHS-I standard). The 256GB capacity model of the Exceria Plus line can reach read-write speeds of up to 100-85MB/s whereas the 128GB capacity model of the Exceria High Endurance line can go up to 100-65MB/s (these are also the two models i have here with me). Both lines are ideal for 4k recording as well as temperature proof, x-ray proof (ISO7816-1 compliant), immune to ESD (electrostatic discharge) and share the exact shame temperature range (-25 to 85 degrees Celsius). These lines are not identical however since the Exceria High Endurance one is also water proof (IPX7) and is covered by a 3-year limited warranty (as opposed to the 5-year limited warranty of the Exceria Plus line). So, time to start our benchmarks and see exactly what you can expect from both the Exceria Plus SDXC 256GB and the Exceria High Endurance 128GB MicroSDXC card models.
