Replacement SD Cards

We will be switching our production from using 8GB TLC type SD cards to 4GB MLC type SD cards (we actually originally provided 4GB TLC cards then did an unadvertised change to 8GB). All devices will eventually wear out an SD card (if it does any writing at all). I typically have to replace my...

By the way for your info: I bought the HARD leather case from Scanner Master. Got it today. They are not kidding..it is very tough/hard and should put up with a bit of rough handling. (Not that mine is ever treated bad). Its for the occasional accidents.
Take care all,. Greg

I've been know to take a picture or two for the fire department. I use this card reader but had to supplement it with an XQD card reader when I did a camera upgrade last year. Still good for scanner cards.

I'm using the Transcend high endurance cards - ever since Upman suggested them - without any issues.
