Lexar's 1TB SD card is the first you can actually buy

SanDisk showed off a 1TB SD prototype a couple of years ago, but the final product never made it to market. Lexar's Professional 633x line of SDHC and SDXC UHS-I cards, however, is now listed for sale in capacities from 16GB all the way up to the flagship 1TB. That card claims read speeds of up to 95MB/s and write speeds of 70MB/s, though it's only rated as V30/U3, which guarantees sustained write performance of 30MB/s.

(Not microSD.)

    Man, I can barely see the difference between 720p and 1080p on a huge screen. I don't know who the target audience for 4k is, besides maybe VR.
