What is the difference between read and write speed?

Troubleshooting

Card not recognized by camera or computer

Ensure the card is properly inserted. Try cleaning the card contacts. Format the card (note: this erases data) in the camera it will be used with. Test the card in another compatible device or card reader.

Error messages during shooting or transfer

This may indicate a write speed issue or data corruption. Try formatting the card. If the problem persists, the card might be nearing the end of its lifespan or could be faulty. Consider using the included RescuePRO software to recover any important data before replacing the card.

Slow transfer speeds

Ensure you are using a high-speed CompactFlash card reader connected via USB 3.0 or higher. Verify that your computer's hardware can support the card's maximum read speeds. Check if the host device has any limitations on write speeds.

Data appears corrupted or files are missing

Immediately stop using the card to prevent further data loss. Use the included RescuePRO recovery software to attempt to recover lost or corrupted files. Once data is recovered, format the card.
