Hi all,
Once my CF filled up (after all transferred to PC),
I usually format it from the cam. (much faster than delete all)
Just wondering would it shorten the CF card life (format rather than erase all)? :dunno:
AFAIK, either formating or erasing, the OS is just remove the data that store at FAT (file allocation table) directory, so new incoming file can use the recycle slot/space.
Any input from you guys :think:
Thanks.
