1 Stars TigerDirect has serious issues!
The 32GB SDHC card was advertised on amazon for 19.99! Instead TigerDirect sends an 8GB Micro card! Their customer care rep (@ tiger dir) says is a computer glitch: you buy one item on amazon and gets wrongly transmitted to tiger as a different product. Really?!?
Even so, you get stuck with sending product back, and waiting for refund…TigerDirect did not even apologize, instead they treat you like you are guilty of trying to take advantage of the low price advertised on amazon. What is wrong with taking advantage of a good price!?!
I don’t think I will buy again from tigerdirect. There are other online merchants out there that know how to make things better for their not so happy customers.
4 Stars It did what it was supposed to do, but it was more expensive than other and faster cards just as large.

I was lent this card and another 32GB SDHC card which was a Class6, while this HP was rated as a Class 4 and in numbers it means the difference of a 26x speed versus 40x for Class 6 cards.
In many cameras it won’t make a difference but in Nikon D series SLR’s using RAW image mode, it makes a noticeable difference and the Class6 card enabled us to shoot more frames per second at high shutter speeds of 1/2000th seconds exposure and write them faster to storage.
Since this card cost just as much or more than the other offerings from TopRam TOPRAM 32GB CLASS 6 SDHC HIGH SPEED FLASH MEMORY CARD + USB 2.0 SDHC FLASH CARD READER #R3
And no name brands sold by Amazon OEM BRAND 32GB SDHC CLASS 6 High Speed Flash Memory Card (32 GB SD Secure Digital High Capacity Card, MAKE IN JAPAN) BULK + iFLASH Logo USB 2.0 SDHC FLASH CARD READER/WRITER for less.
You have to shop around for these cards since some are sold for larcenous rates like this one from Panasonic that is $280+ !!!!Panasonic 32GB SDHC Class 6 Memory Card (RP-SDV32GU1K).
I like HP products despite the fact the quality of their tech support has sank past the basement toilet, other flash RAM manufacturers won’t even provide a phone number such as Transcend and Lexar tech support does everything possible to frustrate you to the point of defeat and just acceptance of a broken item.
Regardless of which SDHC brand or Class you buy, you have to determine whether or not your device is compatible with SDHC devices and these are typically cards that are 4GB and. larger.
The wider adoption of SD card format by manufacturers and the reasonable but incorrect assumption of consumers that any card that fits into the slot should be compatible is creating frustration for owners of PDA’s and cameras who’d like to carry more MP3’s on their iPaq or store more images on their camera without swapping cards or transferring to a PC.
There are Version 1.1 of the SD standard and Version 2.0 which supports SDHC, don’t confuse Version 2.0 with Class 2 cards since Class is just speed categories.
Even if you have a Version 2.0 device / adapter, it still may not read cards larger than 8GB such as this flaw with Windows XP which wasn’t fixed until ServicePack3 or HotFix KB934428.
Even 2003 Server has issues and it won’t install the hotfix because of OS version checking but you can review the appended comment of this review for info on how to successfully install the patch.
1 Stars Amazon and TigerDirect Issue + HP as well to blame
I ordered the 19.99 error item on 8/12 and It shipped out well after the first customers started having issues. Amazon let it continue and TigerDirect is still shipping the wrong item out to others that made the purchase- You’d think Amazon and TigerDirect would have figured it out and stopped the wrong item from being ordered and then leaving their warehouse and the hassles that have been caused! It all stems back to HP product item codes though I suppose with the L1881A and L1882A being the 2GB and 4GB “Micro”SD cards, then the next in series L1883A is a 32GB SD… Oh well, we tried to buy an advertised item at a great price- I suppose we should stop buying altogether.
1 Stars HP SD Card
The SD card did not work in my camera.A friend tried it in his camera and it did not work.I shipped it back and a new one arrived.It did not work either.I got my mony back.A terrible product.
When I opened the HP packaging neither SD card was in the little plastic container.This was for both cards so the manufacturer packaging may be at fault here.
1 Stars Caution! The adevrtized product is NOT the one Tiger ships!
Tiger does not have the 32gb SDHC card. They sent me an 8gb mico for $19.99. Now I have to wait for the product to arrive in order to send it back for a refund.
