I know absolutely nothing about SD-cards and want to purchase a 4GB card for my Dingoo.  I saw some Kingston 4GB SD-cards at a local computer store, but, what size do i want/ask for?  i know there are many different sizes.

 

Thanks!

Your best bet is to buy a micro sd to mini sd adapter and then buy a micro sd memory card. I doubt you will find the adapter in the stores but we do sale them on my website along with the A320 etc.

Your local Electronics store will have everything you need.  Just ask for a Micro SD card with a Mini SD adapter card.  They will know what you mean. Many of the Mini SD adapters come in a pack with a standard SD adapter as well.

A store like Best Buy will have them but you will pay twice as much as you would at an online store with free shipping.

 Ya know what I did. Went to Best Buy, and bought a P.O.S. Duracell memory card kit for $20. Came with all the adapters you would ever need & a 4 Gig MicroSD card. It included a MiniSD adapter that lets you slide a MicroSD card into it and use it. So I just throw it into my Dingoo and use MicroSD's which you can get online for dirt cheap. Tigerdirect is a good start.

But, 8gb is the maximum capacity so get one of them.

Is there a brand that people have found works best/worst with the Dingoo? I'm (hopefully) getting a Dingoo soon and I'll be wanting the maximum storage possible. While I'm asking questions, are there any other 'must have' accessories I should look for?

 

I'm thinking; a case, headphone upgrade, longer TV cable, a UK wall to USB charger.

I use a sandisk card. I have tried patriot and kingston and they all died the sandisk is still going strong and the transfer rate seems to be better. I have a 16 gig card. It is seen in dingux and the native firmware. Sandisk cards are more expensive however.
