They'll most likely both work.

They'll both work, but I would go to newegg and get the 16GB transcend if you can spare the extra ~10 bucks. I was going to go for a more expensive card, then I did some studying and the transcend is the fastest.

I'll bet laropo can vouch for that.

I don't know if they are the fastest, but they are certainly very cheap and working like a charm!

I've been using the 16GB Transcend now for 6 months w/ my D2. No problems so far.
I paid $73 with a card reader.

That $40 w/ a card reader from Amazon is a steal.

i know They'll most likely both work. But which card is the best choice? Kingston or Adata? Kingston a bit more expensive than Adata.

I would suggest you look for reliability data. I chose Kingston because I saw reviewers having issues with failures, and a thin plastic case on the A-Data. The reviews are on www.newegg.com.

To the OP SDHC is cheaper than SD cards.

Per Newegg

SanDisk Ultra II

SD 2 GB $ 22.25
SDHC 4 GB $ 21.99

The reason as far as I can tell is that older devises can only use SD Cards (Cameras etc) and they must use SD cards only unless there are new drivers avalible. So people are forced to buy the standard SD card or buy a new device.

Where as the SDHC is more open market.
