Default cluster efficiency

click on links for fat16 and fat32. it's all boils down to drive cluster efficiency.

Default brand shouldn't matter...

the brand shouldn't matter since all SD cards *SHOULD* adhere to flash memory industry standards. the only thing i could think of that would even matter is how it's formatted. and that's something that can be modified once you get it home.

Default what you said should be true but its not always true...

sometimes cheaper brands products aren't read well by readers...

Default someone would need to try it

not sure about FAT16/FAT32 or 1GB/2GB. you'd have to wait for someone to try it and post about it.

Default your case could be due to a few different reasons...

that problem may be more to do with transfer rates rather than quality. i'm not recommendeding going with some generic no-name brand. i typically go with a reliable name over something that is needlessly more expensive. price doesn't always equal better qulity.

you also have to factor in all the variables when you mix and match hardware -- sometimes 2 pieces of hardware just don't work well together. and it boils down to trial and error.
