http://forums.androidcentral.com – For those who might have missed this article by Jerry, Thank Him Google still supports removable storage in Android, but it is leading by example and providing phones (and now a tablet) with one big block of storage that users can use for anything they like -- be it media, documents, or apps. There are a couple of side benefits to this approach as well. The first one is a bit geeky -- it allows the device to use ext file systems instead of a mix of ext and FAT. This is faster and safer -- both for the data on the device and the way it's handled, and access to our own personal data. A jour (HowTos)

But it did not work.

Has Microsoft turned a removable storage option into a permanent storage non-option? The news had arrived that WP7 phones which use so-called removable micro SD cards are not to be removed!

Am I the only one who doesn't like the trend of some high end phones not having removable storage?

The Droid DNA for example.

Howdy all!

I have a newby question. How can I change the default location to were the cameras save the pictures? I would like to have them save to a folder on micro sd card without have to manually move them from device storage to the removable storage. On my Evo 3d it defaulted to the removable storage but I guess I am a little dense, as I can not figure out how to do it on the transformer.

With the exception of Samsung, none of the other OEMs seem to get it right.

It seems the formula for success, based on most user input here and elsewhere, is to make a phone like this:

1. use a lightly or non-skinned Android UI, vanilla is best of course. Back that up with good support for updates to newer versions of Android.

2. offer SD card storage.

If there ever was a “sure thing” in technology, storage is it. Everyone needs it, and the more data a company creates, the more storage it needs. And while the cloud is good for storage of large data sets, sometimes a company needs storage that is portable and instantly accessible. Enter Imation and its RDX line of removable hard disk storage.

Booting servers from storage area networks with multiple paths can provide significant benefits for the complex, modern data center environment. This article walks you through setting up a SAN-boot Linux system on the IBM System Storage DS8000 with the multipath function supported by the Device-Mapper MultiPath (DMMP) feature.
