[Chuck]

Planning to get this SDHC card for Creative ZEN:

Will it work fine?

It says on the Creative website that it supports SDHC.

I will be shortly be buying an 8GB card.

[covertrussian]

That should do... thats one cheap 8GB card, great find

[starZz]

There's a list of supported memory cards at creative. check it out at

http://www.creative.com/products/mp3/zen/?nav=sdcard

I think this can be a good reference on the card to get

[Jebus]

Amazingly cheap and fully supported by creative

"Transcend microSD (TS1GUSD) 1 GB
SDHC, Class 6 (TS8GSDHC6) 8 GB"
Thats from the ZEN website.

Newegg.com also usually has nice deals on memory cards. They have an A-Data 8GB SDHC card for $59.00, I believe. I got my 16GB A-Data Card for my MicroPhoto mod and it works great and the price was definitely right at $125.00 for 16GB.

Creative doesn't seem to be giving anybody a definitive answer on if SDHC's work with the zen or not. Does anybody know anything about this? Also, if you've seen one work, could you list the model of the card? Thanks!

Here's a confirmed list of compatible SDHC cards from the Creative site:

It's probably a good idea to keep this thread updated though...

[klumsy bot]

I would anticipate that ALL SHDC cards are compatible?

I have the sandisk sdhc, 4gb and it works perfectly in my Zen.

I have the Lexar (el-cheapo) 4GB SDHC (Speed Rating 2), and it's perfect, though not listed on Creative's site. I've also thrown all manner of standard SD's at it without any problems

[omgodlike]

I started a Thread about the new Zen's SD Card compatiblility over at the Creative Forums:
http://forums.creative.com/creativel...p=true#M203235
Would be nice if you all can add some info about compatible or non-compatble cards you use(d) that are not listed on the official list of creative: http://www.creative.com/products/mp3/zen/?nav=sdcard

You can also add the info here and I edit my other thread from time to time to keep it up to date.

Thank you all.

I wonder if the Zen will support 16GB SDHC...

I bought a 16GB SDHC by Patriot. I got it for $59.95 at Fry's Electronics a couple months back.


Edit -

Just checked Google. It's $38.99 after rebate from ZipZoomfly.com and $41.99 from Newegg.com

I haven't checked the price of a 32GB, but if it's far more than double the price of a 16GB, then IMO, I'd buy two 16's. The 16 I'm using has plenty of space to hold hundreds of my MP3's and dozen's of my Youtube videos and misc file, as I also use the ZEN as a removable/portable drive.

[ZenChick]

I don't see why not.

[EsEm]

I am using an 8Gb Dane-Elect SD card.

[Valdr]

I started this thread for users to share experiences with different SD cards - which worked fine and which caused problems.
Here you can find information about some of supported cards. Do you use another? Is it working? What's the manufacturer, type and capacity of this card?

[paintballfreak72]

i have a Sandisk SDHC 4Gb. Sandisk 2Gb, Impact 2Gb. all have worked excellent, the impact is the cheapo brand and is a little slower than the sandisk

[xjjjay]

I believe I already made a thread for this purpose -_-

[ZenChick]

Indeed. Located and merged.
