Uggh.

To make a long story short, I picked up a 512MB SanDisk Ultra II SD card at lunch today. Since I’ve (for the time being) got possession of a regular 512MB SanDisk SD card, I decided to benchmark the two of them. Well, under HDTach, both achieved a straight 1.1MB/sec. Under SiSoft Sandra I got the results detailed above, with the regular card coming in faster than the Ultra II.

I think something is sour with this PCMCIA reader I was using to benchmark them. I think I’ll have to get a USB2.0 reader or something. :\
