[QUOTE="WarbirdAirbrush2, post: 707422, member: 46859"] Bought my first Nikon from a friend. First pair of cards (brand new SanDisk 64GB Extreme PLUS) individually formatted through menu successfully. Camera set to write RAW+JPG Fine. Role of Slot 2 set to RAW-Slot1, JPG-Slot2. No problems. Last week while re-formatting same cards after offloading photos, Slot 2 option is grayed out or burnt-oranged out and unselectable. Message: "This option is unavailable in the current settings or the camera's current state." shows when I try to format Slot 2 card. Remove Slot 2 card and the option to format Slot 2 is available. Huh? Makes no sense. Last week I put in two brand new SanDisk 128GB Extreme PRO cards to photograph a major airshow. Formatted Slot 1 fine, no chance to format Slot 2 as it was unselectable. Verified camera was set to RAW+JPG Fine and Role for Slot 2 was RAW-Slot 1, JPG-Slot 2. After airshow the card in Slot 2 was empty. RAW and JPG both written to Slot 1. Delighted I didn't lose anything but I'd like to use both slots as intended. I have verified neither card is write-protected and each is inserted thoroughly. I have switched cards to slots to rule out bad cards and only Slot 1 remains selectable. I have tested Role of Slot 2 set to Back-Up and still NOTHING gets written to it. Can anyone help with this issue? Is there a way to reset camera to default settings and try from scratch? (My user settings have been saved to another card) Thanks for any helpful replies. [/QUOTE]
