BEWARE, i just got the sandisk 6-1 card reader, with a 2gb sandisk sd card. I CAN ONLY PUT ON 1GB OF DATA ON THIS CARD. I get a "cannot find the sector requested " error.

Per the sandisk website:

SanDisk | Products | Accessories | SanDisk PC Card Adapters

For those too lazt to click lol:
IT SAYS:
Turn your SD™, MultiMediaCard™, SmartMedia™, Memory Stick™, Memory Stick PRO™ or xD-Picture Card™ into a PC card with the SanDisk 6-in-1 PC Card Adapter. It’s quick, and makes it easy for you to transfer and store more of your world on your PC.

Advanced Features:

Read and write (with capacity limitations) to SD, MultiMediaCard, SmartMedia, Memory Stick, Memory Stick PRO or xD-Picture cards
- SD (up to 1GB)- MultiMediaCard (up to 128MB)
- SmartMedia (up to 128MB)
- Memory Stick (up to 128MB)
- Memory Stick PRO (up to 1GB)
- xD-Picture cards (up to 512MB, none M or H)

the adapter HAS CAPACITY limitations, on READ and WRITE. So i bought a 2 gb for no reason, bc i can only throw 1gb on it. I could have saved the 50 bucks ( 1 adapter, 2 2gb cards ) and just burned 700 mb data cd's for 30 cents a pop. IM SO PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW.

Most of you noticed the problems in the car only, becuase you put the files on the card WITHOUT using the adapter ( used a different card reader ) I personally used the sd card, IN the adapter, IN my laptop, PCMCIA slot, and thats how I encountered the problem. After good research I found the info within.


Im going with the adapter and cards above ( in the pictures above ) and going with CF

IT NEEDS TO BE NOTED on the the 1st post, that SAYS it works, THAT IT DOESN'T.
Again, refer to sandisk's site for confirmation, that IT DOES NOT read OVER 1 gb on sd, and not over 128MB on other cards ( PRETTY USELESS ADAPTER ) the posts are only as good as the info in them! fix it !!

Thanks.
