China Made MicroSD Card Speed Test Review Part II

Recently bought 4 cheap China made MicroSD cards to test whether if they are worthy purchase since I was looking some 64GB replacement as I cracked 2 pieces of 64GB MicroSD cards due to poor keeping condition. Since I did the speed test with my laptop and it was all so slow (within 18+MB/s for both read and write speeds), I will not use these results and will be using the results from my Samsung Galaxy S8. 


This is the first MicroSD card that I found and purchased with worthy Read/Write speed advertised.  However, the read speed is overstated. As for write speed it is worthy since it is higher than those earlier purchased China made MicroSD cards in the earlier review. 

EAGAT 64GB($2.61/$2.59 actual purchase price)
Grade: Class 10, U3,V10, A1
Advertised Read: Up to 100Mb/s
Advertised Write: Up to 45Mb/s

Actual test from Samaung S8:
Read: Up to 74Mb/s
Write: Up to 48Mb/s


==========================================================================

This is the first 128GB MicroSD card that I purchased to test out since it promised pretty high read/write speed at a cheap price. Even though the 100MB/s read speed is overstated, the 57MB/s write speed is the fastest from these cards that I purchased. So likely I would be purchasing this for my mobile phone and also my old tablets if they can support. 

Kodak 128GB($7.72/$6.13 actual purchase price)
Speed Class: Class 10 / U3 / V30 / A1
Advertised Read: 100MB/s
Advertised Write: 65-80MB/s

Actual test from Samsung S8:
Read: Up to 74Mb/s
Write: Up to 57Mb/s


==========================================================================

I purchased this small(32GB) MicroSD card to test out whether its speed is as advertised and will buy more if it is. However, it is the slowest (read/write) compared to all the MicroSD cards that I purchased will not purchase it again. 

Lenovo Thinkplus 32GB($2.69/$2.67 actual purchase price)
Fast data transfer speed: With speed of 130MB/s
Improved Class Rating: As a U3, V30 rated card

Actual test from Samaung S8:
Read: Up to 73Mb/s
Write: Up to 38Mb/s


==========================================================================

I found this MicroSD card from Lenovo and wanted to test out how this card performs. 
Lenovo Thinkplus 128GB($8.44/$8.39 actual purchase price)
Advertised Read: 100MB/s (In image)
Advertised Write: 50MB/s (In image)
Read/Write Speed: 100MB/s,Class 10

Actual test from Samaung S8:
Read: Up to 13Mb/s
Write: Up to 17Mb/s

The performance from this card is the worst that I have purchased. It really sucks. Will try to get a refund if possible.

MX Linux Fluxbox Review - For Low-End Laptops

  MX Linux logo from https://linuxiac.com/mx-linux/      Recently I have successfully installed MX Linux Fluxbox on my Acer Aspire One 725 (AO725) netbook. I initially wanted to install Bodhi Linux onto my AO725 netbook, but failed. Finally I tried MX Linux Fluxbox, after trying Anti-X linux and some other ultra-lightweight Linux. MX Linux Fluxbox is suppose to be a lightweight Linux for low-powered laptops such as netbooks or very old laptops. Upon bootup, it only takes 337MB of RAM (438MB for Thinkpad X200) before you load any apps. With 4GB RAM, it is still a lot of RAM for for most apps, like the browser but the CPU utilization is close to 100% after running a Chromium broswer and DeadBeef music player. Things likely be slow... after this point from my observation but I have not tried to do anything more than those common things that I usually need to do.      Since I managed to install MX Linux Fluxbox, I initially did not bother to use the A...

Linux-DesktopEnv: RAM Usage Comparison For Sparky Linux LxQT and Xfce and Q40S MATE Desktop Environment

  Today I did a test on RAM usage for the following desktop environments (DE) using VirtualBox to determine their RAM usage: MATE DE with Q4OS 4.7 Sparky Linux 6.2 LXQt Sparky Linux 6.2 Xfce      The main reason is for me to decide which desktop environment I want to use for my Lenovo Thinkpad X200. I have tried other desktop environments: Enlightenment with SparkyLinux MininumGUI  Trinity with Q4OS Bodhi Linux with a customized Enlightenment DE      The main issue with Enlightenment with SparkyLinux is that it does not work well with autologin. Sometimes it gets kicked out and you have to login again. I suspect is the windows manager issue but I cannot find the solution for this. Trinity has an issue with using jpg wallpaper so it is a turn-off as I don't want default wallpapers. The customized Enlightenment desktop in Bodhi Linux has limited themes but is still acceptable but I want to look for the best for my Thinkpad X200.     ...
