Urgent question re: Sandisc SD cards

Double_Down · 05-09-03, 06:11 PM

I received my Axim last week and just purchased a 256MB SanDisc SD card. Unfortunately, I just read all the posts about problems people are having with these cards here and at the Dell Forum.

So, my question is this, is there anybody out there who is successfully using a 256MB SanDisc SD card without problems, or should I just get on the phone now and tried to get a refund?

Thanks.

Some have been using SanDisks with no problem.... Do you want to roll the dice and go with it? Up to you, I wouldn't... :p

I have 2 64mb SD cards. I use one and my wifre uses the other. No problems so far. We really keep them packed and are constantly moving/copying files. So far, no problemo!

I have a 256 SanDisk SD card and no problems at all. I suggest you let it arrive, and if it is defective, get a replacement then, and keep the pressure on until you get a good one.

had one minor hickup once. What seems to work pretty well is to keep files on it. not apps. I keep themes on mine. I also lock it so that there isn't any future hickups.

If you have it and can afford to buy some CF cards too, keep it. I wouldn't put anything super super sensitive or irreplaceable on it, just in case.
