I dont know the end of it but its a chance to shoot with 1 card. your reputation is on the line. an older pair of 8gb extreme III behaved weirdly when I transferred a bris I shot to my PC. while it was transferring, it was hanging on some pics for a very long time. started the rma process today and can no longer rely o them. when it behaves weirdly, thats it. it the beginning of the end. that was the sign its defective and must be replaced. this time I got away, next time itll be a headache and recovery software. third time, corrupt files and no recover. same with HDD. the second you see it behaving weirdly, dont doubt. get a new HDD, transfer all your pics and have it replaced if under warranty. I want to get into the habit of replacing my memory cards once a year. sell it for 50% and get new ones. I can also just say the cards are defective and do an RMA but that process is just tiring.</blockquote>
