Thanks Bobby, and I'll try to be a productive member of this site. Along those lines; I've received my Kingston 16 GB SDHC class 4 card, and it worked just fine out of the package. It had a slight lag when scrolling through the menu on the empty card, but as soon as I added movies to the card the lag went away. So, you can add another card to the list of compatible cards.

[BobbyRS]

No problem. Good to see another SD card working correctly.

Oh, I should have a couple of 32GB cards for testing soon.

[Andreas14]

Does anybody know if a Transcend class 6 4gb card work

[BobbyRS]

This one does:

Here and here.

I would imagine the SDHC version would too.

It looks as though it work fine; see here (under "Most Recent Customer Reviews" on the right).

[Andreas14]

Thanks

[BobbyRS]

Cool! Nice to know that the bigger cards work too, although they're still a little pricey.(You can get four of the 16 GB cards from that same website for less than one 32 GB card.)

[BobbyRS]

Yeah, it is cool Yeah, a little pricey compared to the 16GB, but still a great deal. Next I have another 32GB card coming to test. This one is a class 6 instead of a class 4!

Has any one tried Kingston 8GB Secure Digital High-Capacity (SDHC) Flash Card Model SD6/8GB? The price at http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...ogy-_-20134483 seems cheap.

[BobbyRS]

Well, the class 2 8GB Kingston card is on Creative's site for being a card that will work, so I imagine the class 6 version will work. Also, numerous Kingston cards have been listed in this thread as working; 4GB, 16GB, 8GB class 4.

I just received the Kingston 8GB SDHC Class 6 card. I inserted it into my HP laptop, copied three folders, two containing audio files and one containing jpg files. Checked the card on the laptop for its contents. Inserted the card in my Zen, turned Zen on. It recognized the card and I was able to listen to audio files and view photos. So this card at least works on my Zen. It is a good deal for $16 with free shipping.

[BobbyRS]

Good deal hlathia. Thanks for returning and giving us an update.

Hi, has anyone had any success with Ritek Ridata SDHC cards? Specifically, the Ridata Lightning series 16gb 6 series? I'm having a hard time coming up with any information pertaining to Ridata/Zen compatibility. Thanks!

[BobbyRS]

I haven't heard from many people using any Ridata cards with the Zen. I can't really seem to find anyone discussing using them together either....
