I had a card error once with the 4GB card that came with my 436HP, but it was in a reader in my laptop at the time, and I was trying to write to it from Sentinel. I had to reformat the card, but it worked fine on the second attempt, and has not had any errors since then.
Explain how that is a scanner problem when the scanner was powered off and in a different room than both the card and laptop when the error occurred. The card still seems to work OK, but for now I'm using it as a backup, and have a 16GB card in the 436HP.
IMO going after Sandisk for warranty card replacement makes far more sense than blaming Uniden for the problem.
Seems that your "once" situation using Sentinal may not be related to the issues others hav had with the SD cards as your car was recoverable. Most of the card problems with the 4/536HP were not recoverable.
So as I said when I originally started this thread, we will let the data speak for itself.
Going after SanDisk for 4GB flash cards is like beating your head against the wall as we/scanner owners were not the direct purchasers, we have no specific receipt for the cards, and I am not sure how many man hours I care to invest in chasing SanDisk on the phone as well as having pay to return a defective card.
I can have a decent meal out for the amount of time I would spend chasing my tail with SanDisk.
But on the flip side, if Uniden ever fesses up, most of those who have posted problems here have documented their issues and maybe one day in the next year when the dust settles, many of us may be able to get replacement cards from Uniden??
Not holding my breath on this one!
