Review: Kindle to blame for under utilization of memory card - Only two weeks in, but the memory card seems to working great. I got this card for my kindle as it was specifically recommended by desertcart, and my kindle came with only 8 gigabytes of storage, which is ridiculously insufficient for any modern complex operating system expected to accumulate data. Even worse, it's not really 8 full gigabytes. (Also, I got tired of being nagged about running out of space after taking only a few dozen photos.) Computers like numbers that are in powers of 2, and work best with processors and RAM that are built on powers of 2, which is why you usually see numbers like 8, 16, 32, etc. and not "strange" numbers like 10, 21, 43, etc. For this reason computer systems have *traditionally* used 1024 (2^10) as a base when reporting storage usage in kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, etc. When it comes to a physical storage medium, however, capacity does not have to be a power of 2; it can be whatever number of storage positions will *physically fit*, the only real requirement being that the computer processor can count that high. Manufacturers are notorious for cutting corners in manufacturing wherever possible then hyping up their products. In the case of the kindle, desertcart used 1000 (10^3) as the base of its "8 gigabyte" claim and aimed for a physical arrangement that would guarantee *at least* 8,000,000,000 bytes of storage (1000*1000*1000*8), over half a billion bytes short of 8,589,934,592 (1024*1024*1024*8). Not surprisingly, SanDisk did the same thing with this less-than-32-gigabyte memory card, as this deceptive practice has become an industry standard. But I digress a bit, my point being that an 8-gigabyte kindle affords you with MUCH less storage space than you would expect, necessitating a memory card for expanded storage, especially since the kindle's operating system uses a LOT of overhead, and every application you install also wants to use a lot of storage. When inserting your new memory card (or removing it) it is best to do so while the device is turned off. Mobile devices are finicky when it comes to "hot swapping" memory cards, often refusing to read the card, or even worse, damaging the card and corrupting data. After you've inserted the card and turned the kindle back on, go to Settings -> Storage, and move all the option sliders to the right to tell your kindle to utilize the memory card as much as it is willing to. Unfortunately, some features will still waste space on the internal storage, e.g. screen captures and blue tooth file transfers will NOT be saved to the memory card. To "move" my kindle books to the memory card, the easiest way was to delete them then re-download them. To move other personal files to the memory card, I connected my kindle to my PC and used Windows Explorer. From the previously mentioned settings menu, you can also move *some* applications to the memory card. Before and after the move, the amount of storage used on each disk is displayed. Moved applications will still use *some* space on the internal storage, and funnily enough, moved applications use more TOTAL storage than when they resided solely on the internal storage. One application I did NOT move was ES File Explorer, as this is a system-critical application (due to the kindle's shortcomings). It should also be noted that the kindle's crappy built-in file browser CANNOT locate the memory card. The files *are* there, but you will NOT find them without a proper file browser like ES File Explorer. Also, some programs (such as the red Notepad) will not be allowed write permissions to the memory card! A few days ago my wife turned on my kindle and it updated itself which took over half an hour, which seemed unusual because when I observe updates they tend to run much faster. Afterward, my kindle stopped recognizing the presence of the memory card. The solution was to turn off the kindle, remove the card, turn the kindle on, then back off, then reinsert the memory card, then turn the kindle back on. The card is working great, and is less than 3% full while my kindle has less than 1.5 gigabytes free. Update 2018-04-23 Last night just before I went to bed, my kindle battery was running low. I was too lazy to go find a charging cable, so I just turned the kindle off. This morning I turned it back on, with only 12% battery power remaining, and found that several program icons were dark. When I tried to launch one of them, I was told that the program couldn't run because the memory card could not be found! I tried removing the memory card and restarted the kindle like I described in my original review, but the memory card could STILL not be found. I took the memory card out and connected it to my desktop computer and confirmed that it was in perfect working order. I then put it back in the kindle and connected the kindle to my computer, letting the charge process turn the kindle on. The darkened icons were still dark, and I saw a flash of the memory card icon at the top-left of the screen. I opened ES File Explorer which located the memory card and showed me its files. I went back to the home screen and none of the icons are dark any more. I guess my piece-of-crap kindle doesn't want to exert any effort accessing the memory card if the battery power is red-lining when the device boots up. ## Features - Certified “Made for desertcart” accessory SD memory card - the only one tested and certified to work with your Fire Tablet and Fire TV - Load your Fire Tablet with more fun - by adding space for additional photos, music and movies - Download your apps and games directly to the SD card - Class 10 performance for Full HD (1080p) video recording and playback - Designed to perform multiple simultaneous activities with no lag or delay ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08JGHVW46 | | Additional Features | Temperature Proof, Water Proof | | Best Sellers Rank | #64 in Amazon Devices & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Amazon Devices & Accessories ) #1 in Amazon Device Memory Cards #12 in Micro SD Memory Cards | | Brand | Sandisk | | Color | Grey | | Compatible Devices | Fire TV, Tablet | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 95,056 Reviews | | Flash Memory Type | Micro SDXC | | Hardware Connectivity | MicroSD | | Item Dimensions L x W | 0.59"L x 0.43"W | | Item Type Name | micro SD Card | | Item Weight | 0.01 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Sandisk Technologies, Inc. | | Media Speed | 10 MB/s | | Memory Storage Capacity | 256 GB | | Mfr Part Number | SDSQUNB-256G-AZFMN | | Model Name | SanDisk Ultra microSDXC UHS-I Card 'Made for Amazon' | | Model Number | SDSQUNB-256G-AZFMN | | Secure Digital Association Speed Class | Class 10 | | UPC | 619659179212 | | Warranty Description | 10 year manufacturer warranty | | Warranty Type | Lifetime | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SanDisk - **Model Name:** SanDisk Ultra microSDXC UHS-I Card 'Made for Amazon' - **Flash Memory Type:** Micro SDXC - **Memory Storage Capacity:** 256 GB - **Compatible Devices:** Fire TV, Tablet ## Images ![Made for Amazon SanDisk 256GB microSD Memory Card for Fire Tablets and Fire -TV - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81YBeVJv1bL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: how to insert the sd card in the fire tablet?** A: Combining the good advice given by others into one answer: (i) The SD card slot is located on the top right edge of the FIRE tablet (ours is a Fire HD 10 - 9th Gen -2019) under a plastic lift up tab. (ii) with the tablet screen up and camera at the top, insert the SD card into the slot with the "gold teeth" down. (iii) push in the SD card, but don't force (in case you have it in backwards). I was not able to get the SD card to "click" into place until I used the pointy end of a letter opener to gently push the SD card all of the way in. (iv) Once the SD Card was recognized by the the tablet, I was able to go to SETTINGS > STORAGE > SD CARD, FORMAT AS INTERNAL STORAGE. Other options are available at this same place in Settings, but for me, that was all I needed to do. **Q: Does anyone know if this card comes with any kind of warranty? Ours stopped working for no reason. The tablet can't read it anymore. :(** A: I've had this same issue myself. Please don't just jump to the conclusion that it's an Amazon problem, a SanDisk problem and/or both. I've experienced this same issue with the "Made for Amazon" 16, 32 and 64GB cards. I've also had the same experience with higher end cards made by PNY, Samsung, Lexar, Transcend and Sony cards. I've had this same problem with everything from 2015 Fire 7 8 and 16GB models to the current 2017 Fire 7 and HD8 models. I've also had the same experience with my Samsung Tab4 and my Samsung E9.6 which I just purchased last fall. In a nutshell it doesn't seem that any tablets are quite ready to reliably store apps on external (SD card) memory. As at least one other said, try recycling the power if the apps disappear. It may take multiple times. It also may not work at all. I have gotten lucky on one occasion that I was able to restore by moving the app back to tablet storage. Many times I have gotten a message stating that the file does not exist or no longer exists (something to that effect). I will warn anyone using a non-Kindle Fire tablet who are using their Amazon apps on it to NOT move any of those to external storage. Most likely the first time you recycle the power (restart or have battery die while using and turn back on after charging) you will find that many of the Amazon apps are gone and will be unrecoverable other than redownloading. If that happens any progress made in a game or customization done in an app will be lost. To be safe only use the SD card/external storage for music, photos and videos which can be redownloaded if necessary. Anything not backed up in the c!oud which is the only copy should be backed up to another location. It's just good practice these days to keep an archive backup of anything important anyways as it will make restoration both easier as well as possible in addition to avoiding the loss of unrecoverable data which may be anything from sentimental family photos to vital business data. Keep in mind too the cost of these devices as well as the memory cards. Even my $1000+ iPad pro can lose data/files if I don't regularly back it up to iCloud. I still periodically hook it up to my computer to perform a backup to file which I then duplicate to a USB drive for storage in a fire safe just to ensure that my critical files are safe (or as safe as can reasonably be without going to extreme measures). Cheaper devices and memory means more likely the potential for failure. Redundant backup is the only way to help ensure that you can restore your device in the event of failure and/or corruption. Hope this helps. Also, Remember that depending on the sale at the time you can buy 4-5 Fire 7 devices for what just one cost only a few years ago. With memory cards these days 64GB cards are selling for less that what an 8GB card cost when the first Kindle Fire came out. Enjoy what the advancements in technology over just the past several years has made possible to all of us. **Q: can I use a commercial sd card?** A: You can but it doesn't run as well. You want a class 10 micro SD card or you will be experiencing some delays and difficulties using certain apps. I learned my lesson! **Q: will it work with fire hd 7, i ordered the 64gb but can't find were to install it** A: The Fire HD 7 does *not* have a slot for micro-SD cards. You can order it with 8 GB or 16 GB of internal storage. In practice, this is not so bad since you can use Amazon Cloud Drive to store content, especially music and video. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Support & space *by C***G on April 16, 2026* Easy to install, very compatible with my fire tablet.
