ADATA Premier Pro UHS-I U1 Class 10 32GB SDHC Memory Card Review

Rating: 9.0.

With the widespread emergence of the latest Secure Digital specification and the UHS speed class, ADATA has released some of the fastest SD memory cards on the market in the Premier Pro UHS-I U1 line-up. Can the theoretical performance prove its use in real world scenarios?

Based on the latest SDA 3.0 specification, the UHS-I, or Ultra-High Speed Phase 1, interface used on ADATA's Premier Pro memory cards gives them sequential speeds of up to 95 MB/s read and 45 MB/s write.

Available in capacities of 16 and 32GB, with a 64GB SDXC variant existing, ADATA is targeting professional photographers and enthusiasts that crave ultra-fast storage for their SD-compatible devices.

With sequential speeds comparable to those of many 2.5″ hard drives, can the ADATA Premier Pro UHS-I U1 32GB SDHC memory card translate numbers on a specification sheet into real world performance?

Specifications:

  • Capacity: 16GB/32GB
  • Standard: SDA 3.0
  • Performance (Sequential): 95 MB/s Read, 45 MB/s Write
  • Performance (Random): 1300 IOPS Read, 100 IOPS Write
  • Warranty: Lifetime

Senior Intel Engineer Explains the Radical Shift in CPU Design

When Intel launched Lunar Lake (Core Ultra 200V) in 2024 we gave you the technical details and followed up with a review of the Asus Zenbook S 14 which has incredible battery life. In the following month we discussed Intel Arrow Lake (Core Ultra 200S) and how we considered it was unfit for review in a situation that was not resolved until February 2025. On the one hand we have Lunar Lake which we like, while on the other hand we have Arrow Lake which is troubled, yet both families of processors run on Lion Cove P-cores and Skymont E-cores and have a huge amount in common.

  1. Nice to see reviews of these from time to time. I just bought a 32GB sandisk. I always buy sandisk. never failed me and companies always have cheap deals like AMAZON.

    Good option from ADATA however.

  2. Also seems like it would be a good card to use with a Raspberry Pi.
