Hi.

1. Whats the max memory 32GB/64GB/etc card we can use?
2. And what type of ram? SD/microSD/etc?
3. Do we need a card adapter/converter for it? If so, which one?
4. Which company memory card do you recommend? Kingston/etc?

Thanks. :)

1. I think it supports up to 16GB cards, but I hear 8GB is best to stay on the safe side.

2./3. It has a miniSD slot. You can use microSD with an adapter.

4. I haven't enough expirience with any of them to have an opinion.

I'm sure I've read people saying they have used 32GB cards and they work.

The fact that Dingoo-Digital-USA is talking about stocking 32GB cards leads me to believe they definitely work as he is very knowledgable about Dingoos.

32GB is the highest microSDHC card at present SDXC is on the way but not yet avaiable and not sure they will be able to get to the size of microSD....

As for 32GB I recieved the SDHC cards but customs has not released my microSDHC cards as of yet. MCS I'm sending you a smaller card for now free of charge so you can recieve your Dingoo and start playing with it once I get the 32GB I will mail it off also. So expect a tracking number tonight or tomorrow for your shipment.

Big thing is a 32GB has never been tested with a Dingoo A320 yet but I would assume as long as it's a microSDHC the reader is just a reader and should be able to read it like any other.... The cards I'm recieving are Class 6 so they will be the fastest out there....

So what you're saying is... technically... (and theoretically) if it's a microSDHC the reader is just a reader and should be able to read it like any other... so... 64GB would also work??? :) :) :)

PS. Did you get to test the 32GB yet to see if they work?

The reader is a SD/SDHC reader therefore in theory it should read to the limit of the SDHC/SXDC range which would be 64GB but who can afford 199.00 to find out about 64GB on a Dingoo I mean once I get the 32GB at 60.00 that will be pushing the money someone is willing to spend for space... No the damn microSDHC are in customs still going on almost 2 weeks.

Just bringing this topic up again... needed some more info:

1. If it has a MiniSD slot, why use a MicroSD instead + adaptor? Cant we simply use the MiniSD instead?

2. Or does MicroSD have better performance/speed? If so, does the adaptor slow down this performance? Or is it a more or less transparent pipeline?
=================================
EDIT:
Ok. Seems there is already some nice info regarding the above 2 questions here:

3. Has anyone tested the 64GB yet? What are the prices for 32GB and 64GB now (in 2011)? Does SDXC work with Dingoo?

Many thanks.
