The SanDisk Extreme is a 512GB microSDXC card that comes with an adapter. It is a UHS-I card for action cameras, digital cameras, drones, smartphones and tablets. It is compatible with the Nintendo Switch, but not the Nintendo Switch 2.
Read speeds reach up to 190MB/s with SanDisk QuickFlow Technology, which goes beyond the UHS-I 104MB/s rate. Write speeds reach up to 130MB/s. Both figures are based on internal testing, and a compatible device is needed to reach them. Actual speeds may be lower depending on the host device, usage conditions and other factors.
The card is rated UHS Speed Class 3 (U3) and Video Speed Class 30 (V30) for 4K and 5K UHD video, with a sustained video capture rate of 30MB/s. Support for Full HD, 4K and 5K depends on the host device and file attributes. The A2 rating means 4000 read IOPS and 2000 write IOPS for faster app loading and in-app performance. For maximum speeds, pair it with the SanDisk Professional PRO-READER SD and microSD, sold separately.
