Transfer data to SD card notification

I keep getting a really annoying 'Transfer data to SD card' notification in my notification list, there is also an icon in my notification bar that keeps asking me to move everything to the SD card because the storage is 75% full. I have done this and now there is nothing to transfer to the SD card (the actual button in the transfer menu is greyed out) but it still pops up every time i remove it. There is 2.21GB left on internal storage so enough room for plenty more apps etc. so there is no reason why it should pop up. Does anyone know how to get rid of this?

There used to be an option to block notifications in the memory app with 4.4.4 but it disappeared after upgrading to 5.0.2

I also noticed this incredibly annoying notification. I wish there was a way to get rid of it. Sony please take notice and give us a way to remove it.

Hi guys I've met the same problem but I've found a way around. Steps:
1. Install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.araneaapps.android.apps.notificationdisable (notification blocker)
2. It will ask you to give some permissions on first start. Give them and re-open the app.
3. Uncheck the box "Hide System Apps".
4. Type "Memory" in the Searchbox (or the word for "memory" in your system language e.g. Deutsch, French, Italian, Spanish).
5. A result will appear. Check the box near it.
6. That's it Grinning_Face

If you wonder how it works - It clears the notification bar for you but don't worry - It won't wipe away anything that you haven't marked in the app.

Giving this app a try, good find. I searched but it looked like they all required root so I gave up.

This notification is freaking ridiculous. I installed the app and in 3 days the notification was blocked 57 (FIFTY SEVEN)times. This is absurd. Please allow the user to disable this notification, forward this information to the dev team. It's so annoying and I shouldn't have to install a third party app to keep my sanity.
