Perfect for Building Your Retro ROM Collection - Great Performance, Unbeatable Price
I've been diving headfirst into the world of retro gaming over the past year, picking up various handheld emulation devices to relive those classic gaming moments from my childhood. After years of using Integral memory cards in my digital cameras without a single hiccup, I naturally turned to them when I needed serious storage for my growing ROM collection. This 256GB Gamer's Edge card has been my go-to choice, and I'm genuinely impressed with what you get for the money.The Good StuffFirst off, the price is absolutely spot on. At under £20, you're getting 256GB of storage that's specifically designed for gaming applications. I've managed to fit my entire collection of 8-bit and 16-bit classics on here, plus a hefty selection of PlayStation 1 games, N64 titles, and even some Dreamcast ROMs. We're talking thousands of games from the NES/SNES era and hundreds from the 32-bit generation. The capacity is genuinely impressive for the price point.The technical specs are exactly what you need for retro gaming. The U3 and V30 speed ratings mean it handles even the larger ROM files without any stuttering or loading issues. I've tested it with everything from tiny NES games (measured in kilobytes) right up to multi-gigabyte PlayStation 2 ISOs, and the performance has been consistently smooth. The A1 app performance rating really shows when you're running emulators directly from the card - everything launches quickly and runs without the sluggishness you sometimes get with cheaper cards.What really sold me was how plug-and-play it is. No formatting required, no compatibility issues with any of my devices. Whether I'm using it in my Anbernic handheld, my Odin 2, or even just transferring files on my laptop, it works straight away. The build quality feels solid too - it's survived being swapped between devices countless times and even the occasional drop.The Reality CheckNow, I need to be completely honest here because this is where things get a bit complicated. While my experience has been largely positive, I've done quite a bit of research into this card, and there's a genuine reliability concern that potential buyers need to know about. Looking at the broader user feedback, there's a notable pattern of cards failing after 12-18 months of use. Some users have reported complete data corruption or the card just dying outright.For someone like me who's spent countless hours curating and organising ROM collections, this is genuinely worrying, but I also have everything backed up. I've been lucky so far, but I'm very aware that I'm essentially playing a bit of a lottery with my data.Comparing the OptionsI did look at alternatives before settling on this one. The Lexar PLAY 256GB card offers double the write speed, and the LinkMore 256GB gives you 50% faster writes for just an extra quid. Both have fewer reliability complaints in their reviews. If I'm being completely practical, spending that extra few pounds might be the smarter long-term investment, especially if you're planning to store irreplaceable data.My VerdictDespite the reliability concerns, I'm giving this five stars because it delivers exactly what it promises at an unbeatable price point. For retro gaming enthusiasts who are just starting out or those on a tight budget, this card offers exceptional value. The performance is spot-on for emulation, the capacity is generous, and when it works (which it does for the majority of users), it works brilliantly.However, and this is crucial, buy this card with your eyes wide open. Make sure you've got backups of your ROM collection stored elsewhere. If you're the type who spends weeks meticulously organising your games and can't bear the thought of losing that work, consider spending the extra few pounds on a Lexar or SanDisk alternative.For me, coming from years of positive experiences with Integral products in my photography work, I was willing to take the punt. So far, it's paid off, but I'm keeping regular backups just in case. If you're comfortable with that approach and the price is your primary concern, this card is genuinely hard to beat.Bottom Line: Excellent performance and unbeatable value for retro gaming, but make sure you've got a backup strategy in place. Perfect for budget-conscious gamers who understand the trade-offs they're making.Would I buy it again? YES, but I'd also seriously consider spending the extra on another brand for peace of mind.Recommended for: Budget-conscious retro gaming enthusiasts, casual emulation users, anyone who maintains regular backups of their data.Maybe avoid if: You're storing irreplaceable data without backups, you need absolute reliability above all else, or you can comfortably afford the slightly more expensive alternatives.

Read full review regarding storage space. Integral 512GB MicroSD card.
I took a punt and ordered the 512GB ultimaPRO model on the 27th Dec19 at a price of £57.99. I say punt as a lot of the reviews for the 128GB and 256GB variants were negative, so I was somewhat sceptical as similar other branded products were marked up at £80+. I can only presume these reviewers fall into one of the following situations:• Did not purchased directly from Amazon and ended up with a random unscrupulous 3rd party seller, which supplied a counterfeit item.• The product was a bad apple of the batch that should of been returned within the returns time window. Alternatively the manufacturer contacted since my item states it has a 5 YEAR warranty, meaning it would of been replaced free of charge.• Misuse/understanding of the product and its limitations (more on this below).Amazon delivered the item on time with my Prime subscription, so no issues there. The MicroSD card arrived in simple packaging, plastic casing held together by cardboard with the items specs accompanied product branding.Speed wise the empty card matched the declared specification from integral, my screenshot shows the benchmarking and Windows 7 file transfer speed. I conducted my testing using a USB 3.0 Lexar MicroSD card reader (as per the attached photographs) with the intended use being to hold MP3 and FLAC music files for my FIIOX3 2nd Gen. So speed wise it lives up to my expectations, though time will tell if this continues to hold true for the life span of this product.A lot of buyers are either unaware or do not understand the difference in storage space advertised and actual available space. The manufacture states on the packaging that 1GB is equal to 1,000,000,000 bytes (one billion bytes), which is a multiple of 1,000 (one thousand). However, most modern operating systems use a multiple of 1,024 (one thousand and twenty four), this leads to the disparity in advertised and available storage size. Using the 128GB microSD card as an example:• Manufacture: 128GB (12,000,000,000 bytes) : 1000 x 1000 x 1000 x 128• Operating system: 128GB (137,438,953,472 bytes) : 1024 x 1024 x 1024 x 128As you can tell the operating system sees 128GB as a higher number, due to the higher multiple. So your actual raw capacity seen by the operating system before formatting would be around 122GB+/-. Now format your MicroSD card and add the file system reduces the space further, my Samsung 128GB card this 512GB version is replacing has 119+/-GB once fully setup.Referring to my third bullet point and product limitations, the main one I believe is the item's operating temperature. I managed to thermal throttle the MicroSD card when attempting to copy 500GBs of files in one sitting, causing the card to disconnect. Whilst this card is capable of storing a large volume of data, files should be copied in small batches to allow the MicroSD card to cool in-between. I verified file integrity using SHA1 and MD5 hashes comparing both source and destination files. I investigated the heat issue by applying direct cooling either side of the card (two PC fans blowing cool air at it). This made considerable difference permitting me to copy the full capacity though at a reduced transfer speed and no disconnects.Overall a brilliant card at an attractive price, I hope it stays this way and is reliable

Well designed, good value, works.
Very pleased with this, very silly I know but it's not often your reaction a small piece of inexpensive computer equipment is "Oh, that's rather nice".I'm particularly pleased with the way that the key-ring loop is on the side rather than over the top as is the case in many of its competitors here, this makes it much slimmer, approx 6mm or 3 coins stacked on top of each other which means you can easily carry it in a wallet. To be utterly perfect it would have been nice to have a cap on the end to protect the card as well, but small plastic snap-wallet works well.(OK got this one sorted out. Bought a cheap card case from "Another Place". It had spaces for 6 micro SD cards on one lid and 2 SD cards on the other. I chipped out the clasps for 3 of the micro SD cards using my trusty Swiss Army penknife which left spaces for 3 micro SD cars and enough room for the adapter on the other. Not perfect, don't think it will last a lifetime, but it works. There you are, clever or what. Integral, get on to it and make something similar.
