SD Card which format

[beachmeat]

Hi there,

my 2GB SD card has just arrived and I am wondering which format is safer/faster with WM5, and which cluster size is recommendable...

Thanks,
Manuel


P.S: I benchmarked the card with Pocket Mechanic (it is an extrememory 133xSpeed) and for reading I get a value of 0.96 M/sec - thats quite slow for a 133x Card, isnt it?

IMHO the larger FAT means seek times are much slower for small file writes. In my personal experience, my old old 128MB Panasonic SD card is much faster for general usage than my 1GB Sandisk Ultra II.

Of course, if you copy movies and music onto the card, the 133x would be faster for sustained transfers...

All that, and I can't really answer your question :oops:
