User Submitted Sony MSXM8GS 8 GB Memory Stick PRO Duo (Retail Package) Reviews (cont...)Date: 2008-01-25 Very Good. Pros: Big space! 8GB is wonderful! The transfer speed is good and feels like a good build for such a small thing. Cons: Just some IF cons only. IF its too pricey for you. IF you hate Sony (although I still recommend this card - see below). IF your PRODUCT does NOT support this card/size - please RESEARCH :) Alright, I hate Sony, I admit it! However, they can make a quality product and I say they have here - as a general user, not an expert. There are many generic brands and FAKE brands that just don't perform as well - especially with MagicGate and compatibility. These will even claim to be Sony with convincing packaging to boot. I highly recommend you research before you buy and buy through a trustworthy seller (I went with Amazon.com itself). Lastly, if you Google this exact phrase (WITH quotes), you should find a very helpful guide: "detailed guide to fake memory sticks". Date: 2008-01-14 A very good value. I have only used this memory stick for a few days, but so far, so great. Tons of storage for a modest price. I will be ordering several more via Amazon. Date: 2008-01-14 8GB WOW!!!! I purchased two of the 8GB cards for my kids to have for their PSPs. The hold all the music, video and games the kids want. It was a great value for the money!! Date: 2008-01-07 It's a memory Card.... but Beware of Fakes! So I ordered the 8GB memory card from a retailer on Amazon. It came in, and everything looked as it should. Then as I started to use it in my Video camera, I was getting error messages and data corruption issues. I did some searching around on the internet and I found that the error is usually do to counterfeit memory cards. So I looked on the page and they gave a great list of things to look for. Biggest giveaway that mine was not really from Sony: * There was no product information paper on the inside in several languages * The UPC had MSX-M8GST/X, the valid UPC does not have the "T/X" at the end, and the actual number under the UPC was for a 1GB memory card. * Obviously the bad performance of the card. I talked with Amazon, and got the seller to refund my money and I ordered it directly from Amazon. When I looked at the two packages side by side, there was an obvious difference. On the card, the print was very faded (and incorrect) versus the legit card. So the card itself is great, but buyer beware of the fakes. Here is a good article that talks about spotting fakes: [...] -Matt Date: 2008-01-07 Works as advertised. Nothing fancy about this product, but it holds over an hour of high-definition video on my new camcorder. Upload speed is excellent, only takes a few minutes to upload the whole thing to my laptop. That's really all I was looking for.
