Introduction

Flash memory is a diverse product used everywhere from cell phones to PC storage devices. As it is relatively cheap and the production is abundant, it is no wonder it has became so popular. There are many types of flash memory cards available, but only 4 or 5 are deemed as major. Today we will take a look at the Gaming Edition flash memory cards from Lexar, designed to be totally compatible with gaming consoles and equipment. There are only two Gaming Edition cards which Lexar produce, a Memory Stick Duo Pro card which is commonly present on all Sony hardware and gaming consoles, and a Secure Digital card which is the most widely used flash card available and can also be found on Sony PS3 and Nintendo Wii.

Lexar is a subsidiary company to Micron, along with Crucial, focusing entirely on flash cards and readers. Lexar is also affiliated with Kodak, producing and selling their camera’s flash memory products. We received both of the Gaming Edition cards which Lexar produce, the Memory Stick Duo Pro 4GB card and the Secure Digital 2GB card.
