4GB

Are you 100% sure it is 4GB ? please i don't want to buy another SD card and find out it will not work.

I was reading it may be limited to 2GB ? Can anyone confirm or if they are using 4GB card SD

Thanks

Is it SDHC or SD only?

SDHC Starts at 4GB.
SD (non HC) stopped officially at 2GB, but was available in 4GB that usually worked in non-HC equipment but not in SDHC equipment.

Transcend 4GB SD (NON-HC) Secure Digital
vs.
Transcend 4GB SDHC 150x Capacity Memory Card

If i understood you correctly

4GB non HC will work

4GB SDHC will not work ?

is that correct ? if so then i need to buy 2GB SD Card

I don't know.

If it is non-HC a 2GB (always non-HC) should work, and a 4 GB Non-HC might work, but a 4 GB (and up) SDHC will not work.

If it is SDHC, then a 2GB should work, a 4 GB (and up) SDHC should work, (However, depending on how and when it was designed it might have a capacity limit smaller then the Full SDHC limit. i.e. only up to 8 but not 16, or up to 16 but not 32)

Mine W211 is an 07, so I can't do any tests. All this comes from a lot of experience with cameras, phones and music players

SDXC cards are backwards compatible with SDHC and SD based on the new 3.0 industry
conventions standards.

Not sure if the 09 W211 will recognize the extra memory, but the card should be recognized and be usable up to the memory limit the car can handle.

Sorry, you are mistaken.

Using SDXC - SD Association

The devices are backwards compatible, the cards are not.

I stand corrected. I was reading at CNET and checked it again. I misread the article.

Sorry for any confusion caused.
