Today we're taking a look at the biggest SD Card yet coming in at a better than expected price. This card is ridiculous to have for a Switch, but probably makes a lot of sense for the Steam Deck.

That 1.5 tb card is not good. Those micro SD cards break, and being that they are exspensive buying anything over 256gb is just not effective.
Those glasses are seriously goofy looking on you :)
@@atruceforbruce5388 What are you talking about? They're dirt cheap under 1TB. I got my A2 1TB Samsung card for 60 dollars. You can get 512 for less than 30 dollars.
It’s nice that the Switch and Steam Deck have increased demand for microSDs so much companies actually started working on them again
Actually its cameras and phones that make em make the bigger sizes. Video gaming is just niche
@@BansheeN0rnphones don't really support microsd anymore
@yourlocalsadcorvid Samsung phones still do. I alwaus go fpr expandable memory, one of the biggest factors for buying a phone for me.
@@BansheeN0rn You're niche.
@@tommytigert5993most of the modern Samsung flagships don’t have microsd.
Wow, the 1TB came out in february 2019. Thats nearly 5 years, we now nearly had half a decade without progress in the storage size of micro sd cards
I blame phones dropping support for sd cards.
@@blakewilliams5627yup
Shut up 2019 was last year
@@blakewilliams5627very true. The regulations should of targeted expansion storage when they did the USB C iPhone ruling.
@@blakewilliams5627 hated how samsung dropped it. I'm never trading in my note 10 plus because the flagships no longer have SD slots. Having the SD slot was a plus over apple. But now...eh. I do have a fold abnd use it, but that note 10 gets the most play from me. I have most of my music collection in the SD slot.
A lot of memory standards have gotten phased out before theyve reached their "theoretical" limit. I'm glad micro sds have stayed long enough to actually get close to them compared to when they first came out with what 4mb now all the way to 1.5 or 2tb and for cheaper.
I feel like every second day some Apple fanboy tells me they are a "dead technology". I mean it's ultimately just friggin flash memory, so this is wrong on multiple levels.
@@Alias_Anybody Why would Apple People say that? SD cards are very popular in video work. And yes its just flash. Its basically the new verwion of a thumb drive. Great form Factor and its huge use case make it last. I think its great.
@@daveonezero6258
They also said that about wired headphones the nanosecond Tim Cook went off that stage. I'd say it's mostly stupidity.
I remember when a 1 GB jump drive was available to everyone. For Fathers Day I gave my Dad a big box with a smaller box in it. The smaller box had another smaller box. It repeated until it was small enough to hold the 1 GB Jump drive.
I also remember when we thought 8 MB was big for a Play Station memory card. Wow how technology has grown.
i remember in 2005 i got one of those ell jump drives. It was a measly 128MB i think...but I felt like hot stuff cause I clipped it to my wallet...haha.
Stupid idea, just give someone the gift.
my sister had a 4gb micro sd card in her phone carrying it in every phone generation, then at some point swapped to a 32gb which was at the time huge, all i can say while its insanely slow at around 6-8mb/s (class6 & SDHC - at 12,5mb/s busspeed, from 2008) after all those years she still saved daily photos on it & it is still to this day working considering SD Flash are mostly known for the crappier "unreliable Flash" storage. idk would say its pretty reliable imo.
You have no imagination.@@jonathansoko1085
@@jonathansoko1085It’s also such a big waste of materials wtf?!?
1.5tb on a friggin sd card. I remember being super SUPER excited when I got my first 30gb hdd. Now there's something WELL over the size of that, that fits on my damn pinky nail. Absolutely nuts.
Storage i think is the one component of PC related tech that has continually evolved in some way. CPU's were stagnant for a long while and GPU's have gotten kinda stagnant now. But going from absolute brick of a 50mb hard drive to a fingernail sized 1.5TB storage.. is pretty nuts.
Now imagine showing something like to someone that only knew of the absolute giant old storage mediums. "OH this tiny little thing holds (1000x) times that monstrosity" ....
@@Dlf212I like to imagine stuff like that too, but I think anyone who was familiar with hard drives 40 years ago (like a programmer like my parents) would most likely have been keeping up with storage tech to this day so they wouldn't exactly be stupefied, just really impressed (like this comment section mostly)
30GB? I was pumped for 20GB after suffering 850MB for too long
@@0wnz0rz888 I was only a child but I do remember my parents (programmers) being excited for their K2 400MHz Compaq with, I think, 20GB storage.
Later found its factory Yamaha XG MIDI made it my favorite gaming PC too

I think that remaining 1.3TB is actually closer to 1.4TB. If you could see it in GB.
1.5 Terabytes is 1.3 Tebibytes.
It is specifically 1,396.98 GiB (gibibyte) which is 1.36 TiB (tebibyte) which are the correct binary units it should ideally be displayed in.
@@Sevicify *In your opinion. I bet you would stop squawking if it simply reported the TB value as TB rather than the TiB value as TB.
@@tim3172 No I would still argue that software and storage device capacities should be using binary units across the board, I don't care whether they display as TiB or TB for simplicity so long as the underlying units are all binary. This would do away with the confusion over the advertised space of a storage device and the space reported by software. Using binary units would also align nicely with the use of binary computing within our CPU architectures and align with the historical, and still current, usage of binary sizes for computer memory (both RAM and caches), file systems, software and hell even within underlying functionality of some storage devices (eg: sector and NAND sizes).
1TB SD card on the switch is awesome. I have over a 100 games on it cuz of it
ditto. I'm down to about 10ish gigs. Had the 1TB since its been released
I have a 500 GB card and still got 90+ GB left to do. I should probably replace it because the sd card is fairly old now.
Double it and give to the next guy
@@kenkaniff6483😂😂
@@goldmemberpbbuy 2k that max it out 😂😂
Snap! They finally releases the 1.5TB card? I have a 1 TB in my phone and switch. Definitely going to keep an eye on it for a good price/sale. I don't have a steam deck yet but I'd highly consider that or a 1TB card for it.
That 1.5TB SD Card with my 2TB SSD in my Steam Deck would be insane. And I already have a 1TB SD Card so being to travel with all those games at my finger tips is too good to pass up.
So you opened up your phone and upgraded your memory with a 1tb sd yourself?
@@TheOmegaRiddler
Sounds like you already have your games at your fingertips
@@InnerRise But I need more. MOOOORE.
@@InnerRiseYou can't upgrade memory.
Upgrade storage yes.
One of the things I love most about this generation of gaming is how companies are focusing more on speed and storage. When you look at the PS3 generation and even a little into the PS4 generation companies were mostly focusing on pushing high end PC-like graphics without the hardware or storage to support them so most games (especially on the PS3) had a TON of performance issues. I'm so happy we're finally getting away from those problems.
Silly child, that is NOT why the ps3 had performance issues in games lmao
By the way the switch is PLAGUED with actual performance problems. You should either think before posting, or just dont
@@jonathansoko1085 You might want to get back on the meds buddy. 😂
@@jonathansoko1085bro said "silly child" 💀 you sound like some goofy Disney villain
But yeah, the main problem with the PS3 was its complex CPU that wasn't easy for devs to utilise
@@jonathansoko1085 One of the issues was its too small ram, that was the bottleneck of the PS3.
really amazes me how far data storage has come. at my job i disassembled a 1 gig wd caviar drive from the late 90s (still measured in mb) a couple weeks ago, and just imagining needing a thousand of those of hard drives to match the capacity of this one tiny sd card that you could easily lose in your pocket.
Just ordered this thanks man. Love being on top of things
I recently found out that there is an SD Express standard which uses full a PCIe lane of bandwiidth like how an NVMe drives. I hope the next handhelds us SD Express as a 100MBs read speed is limiting.
The fact we’re close to 2TB, which is the max SDXC can do and switch can support atm, is awesome
Wonder how long till we see those cards
Supposedly their working on some that are supposed to come out end of summer 2024
Its 199 on Amazon here in canada. I have the 1tb in my switch and a 1tb in my steam deck currently...also upgraded the SD to a 1tb internal drive. Im running all kinds of emulated titles on that thing. I will definitely pickup this 1.5tb card too for sure
You can have 4tb ssd and 1 tb sdcard 😂 all those games you can store
This is definitely a pretty cool sd card. I dunno if I would actually need it for the Switch though since the games are a LOT smaller than other games and I buy mostly physical. I do have two highspeed 1Tb cards for two of my Switches because I do download some games that aren't available in physical form, or too expensive, or if it's just an Eshop-only release. As someone who used to save stuff to HDD and floppy disks, still I'm impressed with what we're able to do with storage capacity, cost, and physical size these days.
Hopefully, the next Nintendo console has express protocol support (sd express at 800+ mb/sec)for faster newer sd cards(more that 2 TB) when it becomes available.
This is exactly what I need, seeing as I already own two 512GB cards for my Switch
Why wouldn’t you just get a 1 TB one though
@@IceBlueLugiabecause they don’t want to end up with 2 1tb cards
@@IceBlueLugia Because the 1TB wasn't available at the time, so I grabbed the next best thing.
Known a 495GB card because it was literally the biggest one I found at the time
@@3rdeyefocusedAs a non-Switch owner, are Switch games even that big?
I remember 2017! You were filming on the couch with only 2-3 sports flags on the wall behind you! 😂
He has changed
I think my current SD card is only a 400GB SanDisk, which I got back in 2019 for around $130 and it is nearly full at this point. Wouldn't mind getting that 1.5TB SD card for Black Friday or Christmas.
I love the S3 on the packaging. I couldn't imagine having that much back then.
I just purchased mine 1.5TB... roughly $50 per 500Mb which isn't bad, and have several Sandisk form Ultra, Extreme and Extreme Pro along with Samsung Evo and Pro. So far in recent years no problems... The Ultra write speeds are roughly half of that of the extreme and extreme pro based on my crystal disk benchmarks @ around 32mbs writes based on test setup. But for Switch or most mobile devices work great.. recommend the Extreme for 4K recording and above.
500 gb not mb
Thanks for the demo and info, have a great day
they finally got 1.5 cards? nice. I've had a few 1TB cards when they dropped, oh so long ago....for my switch, deck, and my older phone (now my portable media device)
Technology advances so fast. 1.5 Terabytes is incredible in such a small little card. Give it 20 more years well have small 1000 Petabytes SD cards.
I'm running a 512gb card now having decimated my 256gb one and I'm a bit over 400 used so while I don't anticipate buying many more Switch games, I can see the use for the next system.
I have a 1TB in my Switch (full) and another 512gb that I’ve separated VNs and walking simulators onto. It is a pain swopping them out so I’m really tempted by this. Hopefully it’ll drop in price to around £100 after six months or so.
I started using Silicon Power SD cards and SSD drives. They seem to hold up pretty well and are a fraction of the price of other cards and SSDs. Maybe you would consider doing a review on some of their products sometime.
Only real ones remember when Spawn Wave threw his hammer at a fake SD Card and put a hole in his wall 💯
I would love it for my 64gig steamdeck, the “other” storage space is gonna be really annoying though. My steamdeck is a GTAV, honey select 2, re4 remake machine at the moment
Thanks for posting this video. I saw this on Amazon but was worried it might be fake (lots of dubious cards on Amazon). Appreciate knowing it's legit.
I wonder if the read speeds will become less relevant as post processing tools will do the upscaling and alot of the heavy lifting. Then the streamed content could still be relatively small.
It's on sale now for Black Friday on Amazon for $120. I pulled the trigger and bought it for my ROG Ally.
Awesome! I have a SanDisk 1 GB Extreme card for my SteamDeck and a SanDisk 1 GB Ultra for my Switch. Actually since this card reaches the upper limits of the micro SD card reader in the SteamDeck I might just upgrade to this. I already ungraded my SSD from 64 GB to 1 TB and even with my 1 TB micro SD card I am running out of space. I am no where near the limit in my Switch. To think there was a time when I thought a 1 GB harddrive in one of my first computers was large.
I only have a 128 GB card in my Switch, not even using half of it since I still mostly buy physical games for it.
@@Sevicify Nice. I love that Nintendo it actually keeping physical media alive and I also love how they keep their game sizes relatively small especially when compared to the competition.
Thanks for having us, we're glad you enjoyed VITURE One! 😎
Write speed is very low compared to theorical value. Not sure good idea for my lenovo legion go what do you think ? Greetings from switzerland. If its too low in your opinion which one do you recommand in 1 rera ? With good wtite result
Just curious could this work with the micro SD adapter for ps vita?
I got this as well and have about 400gb remaining, I know with the games coming out soon and into 2024 I’ll probably end up filling that up too so a 2tb reaching the end of that sdxc standard is definitely needed before they shutdown the switch store or if they don’t intend on having backwards compatibility
😢 how
U must be a Digital only
This card will definitely be the one I get for the next Nintendo console when it comes out.
I remember buying my first hard drive back in 286 days - it was 340 MB - that is right megabyte and it cost me $350. So yeah storage now is pretty amazing. I bought it because I only had a 20MB hd and bought a 20MB game - one of the Zork games.
But also there's just more data in today's video games AND videos and photos even
I don't think sd cards would be great for getting that super fast loading that ps5 and series x has. Since ssds are fairly small, having that internally on Next Gen Switch with an option for another ssd addon would be ideal. Maybe sd card support would be good for storing games mainly or BC with Switch.
I got my Switch at launch and got a 128 GB card for it, a couple of store sales later had to jump to 256 GB, same thing happened once again, so I went ahead and got me a 1 TB because those sales keep coming ! I got like 70 or 80 GBs left in that card.
Not that I'm going to jump on that 1.5, but it's interesting. Fortunately I still have the 256 GB available, the 128 went into my 3DS.
You know since this is the first SD card to go over 1 TB I think your video is technically the very first time it's ever been documented showing the Nintendo switch data management screen showing TB instead of GB
I do need to update my storage/SD card. I'm not a super tech savvy person. Is there a way I can transfer the save data from my old SD card to a new one? I've ended up playing way more games than I ever thought I would 🤦♀️
Silicon Power Superior has an A2 1tb for 61 bucks. Black Friday is gonna make it forty or thirty five bucks I think. I just picked up a 2tb NVM for SteamDeck for 130, Micron
How is that working ? Where did you purchase it ?
@@blastu2fool great, Amazon. I've ordered from Amazon a bunch so I know what to look for when watching out for scammers and I've been very satisfied with my purchases in past
I got a 1tb in mine it's more than enough gald you finally upgraded
1Tb card/drive was a great buy for my switch & ps3, was looking at a 4tb nvme for my ps5 but I filled a 4tb external in a week so will probably wait for the 8tb to come down in price. I like all if my game collection playable on a whim, im not likely to play a new game i have gotten with ps plus if I have to delete one of my favourite games to play
I've got a 1tb in my Switch, but that bitch is FULL!
I've been waiting for something larger than a 1tb to be created and released, since the Switch is capable of up to 2tb cards, which don't even exist.
1.5tb exists
@@uomoferragamo They do now, but I think at the time of my post they were not publicly available.
I do need to get one though. Switch is still full.
This is nice that size released. At the moment. I am fine with me 1Tb on my switch and 2Tb on my Steam Deck.
The nice thing about the 1.5 TB showing up is that the 1 TB will drop in price a lot.
I didn't know SD cards could get this big. Pretty reasonable price too. I guess Terabyte flash drives and DS cards are no longer prototypes.
Dose Starfild play on the steam deck off a sd card or dose it still need the ssd?
Going to need one. of those when Switch one servers die and it become like the 3ds ,still have a few years to go tho no rush to grab one they are still pricey anyways.
Just think...My Ally can now cook up to 1.5TB. What a time to live in!
would this card work for a MacBook Pro (14in M1) - not sure if there's a cap for SD storage on MacBooks - any ideas?
With my 400+ Switch games in my library ( mostly digital) this will come in handy! 😅
I've had to clear space from my 400 GB card on my Switch. Part of me wants to upgrade but another thanks. I should wait to see what the Switch successor turns out to be and requires.
We are actually getting closer to 2tb SD card!
I remember the Sandisk 8 gigabyte SD Card costing like almost $100 in 2008-2009 and thinking to myself this is absolutely batshit crazy I have this much memory the size of a Pinky Nail! 1.5Tb SD Cards though? DAYUM!!!
I say definitely buy this cause it's worth every penny as you'll probably never have to worry about space on your Switch ever again for the most part
I have the Sandisk 1TB Micro SD Card and may never fill it up and that's ok cause it gives me peace of mind
If the NG Switch is backwards compatible, I will be getting this SD card here. Decided that months ago already.
I bought the 200gb one in 2017, came out a few months before the switch came out. Upgraded to the 400gb in 2019.
Tech really do progress over time.
I remember I bought sd card on release of switch.
Dat was 200gb for 200$ 😅
I'm curious about if this is actually a 2TB card with a lot of reserved/redundant or bad sectors
dont think so. illogical to produce 2TB with far below their target capacity. but i do think 2TB is on their way same as when we got 400GB and 512GB was released few months apart.
@@wylerXL You don't _plan_ to produce below the target capacity, but the manufacturing is so precise and hence error prone that you're going to anyways. At that point, you can either throw out the chips as faulty, or you could say, "well 75% of the sectors seem to work, so just sell it as 1.5TB instead."
For everyone that says that buying physical is better than buying digital, you do realize there is absolutely no difference if it's on a Nintendo game card or digitally downloaded on a Micro SD card....
Sure if you lose the micro SD you lose all your games instead of just one..but with sizes as big as 1.5 TB I just leave it in my switch and never lose it unless I also lose my switch.
Im glad my 1tb has been full for a while now definitely getting thiw before the years out
I remember hearing the 3DS could only support up to 64 GB on an SD card no idea if that's true or not but I never filled up my 64 gig card. Yes that includes all the music I put on there.
I'm going to wait until a switch 2 and once it comes out I'll get this. 4 sd cards on my switch right now and I'm using my final 512gb SD card for my last switch games. (One 1tb, two 512gb, and one 400gb. Every single one is maxed out with the final has 226gb left for last games.)
When it comes to the price, it's not that bad to me. I remember when I got my PSP, not at launch but maybe a year later, I also spent almost an extra $100 for a 1 gb memory stick. So yeah, $150 for 1.5 tb? Not that bad in my opinion.
This is wonderful news to prepare for next-gen and even current gen
Random Read is more important for games, sequential for file transfer/installs. UHS-II would be nice for the next Nintendo system, also, 2TB is the limit for SDXC, wonder what the next standard will be.
SDUC seems like it's already been specified and ranges from 2 TiB to 128TiB. Whether or not we ever see a micro SD card that large and when is another matter.
As the storage size ceiling keeps getting pushed, the bang-for-buck selection will also become better and better. Win win.
Can the Switch, and Switch OLED support a 1.5TB micro sdxc card? I thought they only supported 1TB?
I remember when the switch came out and they said the switch had support for up to 2 TB micro sd cards even though they didn't exist yet. I legit thought that by time they made 2 TB sd cards nintendo would have made a new console. I was wrong!
Very glad to see this! I just wish phones would do sd cards again!
Nintendo said 2 months before the Switch launched that it’ll be able to support up to 2 TB of storage when they exist. Little did we know it wouldn’t be until the end of its VERY successful lifecycle that we get an 1.5 TB Micro SDXC card, with the 2 TB one having yet to come into existence.
Hopefully it won’t be much longer until they do for the Switch 2! And people DEFINITELY won’t need it for the current Switch. 😂
Did get an 1 TB Micro SDXC for my Switch OLED the year it came out. This was when the shortages were still strong, so I consider myself very lucky when I got mine’s!!
What programs was used to test if real or fake?
I think I'm might get this or a 2 TB one, when the Switch 2 comes out. I already have the 1 TB card.
wasnt there something about bigger cards potentially getting too hot?
That issue has been solved for years now
If that 1.5 TB SD card compatible with my Nintendo Switch Lite, that is something I like putting all the possible Arcade Achieves video games.
I have a 1TB in my OLED Switch. I have 316GB of open space on it right now. I will probably pick up the 1.5TB when the next version of the Switch comes out.
This is gonna be hot for the next Switch. But when would even be a good time to buy it?
Love it!! 1 year from now I'll get a silicon power or teamgroup one for 50 bucks
I am just about full on my 1TB micro sd card, over 700 games, I think. Hoping when Nintendo releases the new console we’ll get more storage options. “Supposedly” has PS4 quality capabilities. May need to ditch the 32gb baseline
I saw some videos saying for gaming u need the V2 versions not the v1 because they can read and write a bit faster
1.5GB would sound like something a knock-off SD card would claim to have…
I wonder how long until 2TB MicroSD cards hit the market. You’d theoretically have a 5TB Steam Deck in your hands.
Me, a cartridge enjoyer, who bought all games on cartridge for cheaper than on the digital store, with the possibility to resell them when I want and haven’t even bought an SD card and never worried about my switches memory filling up
how much space do you get on the switch with a 512gb card?
i personally have a 1tb micro sd card in my switch light.. havent even came close to filling it up yet.. i bought it for obvious reasons.. buy a bunch of digital games and not have to carry around too many cartridges on those long trips and risk breaking/losing them.
If you are filling up 1TB on your Switch and think 1.5TB "Changes the game", you might need to touch some grass.
Dang, I REALLY need this for my Switch!
With the amount of Switch games I have, even 1.5Tb isn’t enough. 2Tb would be nice (or the ability to plug in USB external drives).
If they can do this for the SD card I wonder how much the Game Cartridges for Nintendo Next will hold????
Wouldn’t the lower transfer speed be a hinderance on the Steam Deck?
its not bad, but using it for emulation is great
Ive had a 1.5 tb card over a year. Micron released theirs in 2022
Which would be better this one or a 1tb extreme pro for my steam deck?
1tb extreme is more better
It's the only 1.5TB microSD currently on the market. Western Digital and Samsung don't make bigger than 1TB. It takes 2hrs 23min to transfer 173GB and the size depends how it's formatted. exFAT is 1.39 or FAT32 1.40
looks cool but i might get that for steam deck. switch i won't be getting many games but exclusives (kirby, mario, zelda, bayonetta, etc.)
Bruh $150 for a 1.5tb micro SD? I bought the 1tb Micro SD when it first came out and I paid $400 for that baby lol (still use it!). Loving the competition in the storage world where prices keep dropping :D
