Formatting the sd card to ntfs format

Hello community,

My memory card SD camera is in FAT32 format. Is it good if I format my SD card in NTFS format? I want to know which is the best format for memory cards. Help, please.
Thank you...

It depends on if your camera could support NTFS, so you should ask your camera manufacturer, whoever it is.  My thought is "if it's not broken, don't fix it".  There is not much to gain by changing the format, so I would say that potential problems outweigh the economies of small space formatting.

Good luck.

    I've just updated to Android 6.0.1 yesterday evening and I realized a lot of things has changed. I can't access my store apps on the SD card in Android 5.1.1. I was able to move apps to the SD card on 5.1.1 to free internal memory. Update Marshmallow supposed to have better functionality.

Also if you insert the SD card for the first time, it should appear a notification asking you what to do with the SD card. He don't ask me. This is a feature known with Marshmallow. My phone have 16g, it won't hold all my apps, which was the reason why I spend a few apps to SD on Android 5.1.1. So what's happening?

    I have also factory reset my phone and format my SD on my computer, it still doesn't work. He only treats like a portable storage.

    Problem solved

    I don't know that it's a bug or not. the reason why he did not move the app to the SD card was because the SD card has been beyond 32 G. Since I was a 64G with a total of 59G free. It will not transfer.  So I downloaded my photos, music and videos to take 1/2 of the memories. Now I have 29G left, restarted my phone and transfer of applications very well. go figure.

  • The SD card no longer works. "You must format the disk before you can use it"

    I have a dv8000t supplied with XP.  I've upgraded to Vista 32, and after the driver updates and adding the SMCISEnable key in the registry, the SD card reader has worked well.

    Now when I try to use the SD cards, it is said: "you must format the drive until you can use it" as an error message.  I tried the SD cards on other computers, and they work, so I know that is only the HP dv8000t problem. This is perhaps the result of a Windows Service Pack or other update?  I have Vista Service Pack 2.

    Any ideas?  Thank you.

  • Can not format the memory card

    Canon that PowerShot SX 10 IS reformatted not 16 GB SanDisk Ultra.  Camera says memory card error.  Everything else seems to work on the camera.  Is there a way to fix this?

    Your camera specifications say that it will work with the following cards, memory card SD/SDHC, MultiMediaCard, MMC Plus card, HC MMC Plus card.

    Some memory cards note their speeds by a "class." Canon cameras are recommended to be used with nominal class cards 4 to SD (Standard-definition movies) and class 6 for HD (high definition movies) or more because of the large amount of data written to the card. As long as map meets the following standards for the card, the memory card must be compatible regardless of class or the speed rating.

    SD

    Standard Secure Digital card supports up to 2 GB capacity.

    SDHC

    Secure Digital High Capacity currently supports up to 32 GB capacity.

    MMC

    Multimedia card supports up to 1 GB capacities.

    MMCPlus

    MultiMediaCardPlus supports up to 4 GB currently.

    HC MMCPlus

    High capacity MultiMediaCardPlus supports up to 8 GB now.

  • Initiate a R100 on the SD card slot.

    I found mention of R200s (?) be able to boot from the SD card if you put a picture of 2.88 MB floppy on support SD, that named the file $tosfd00.vfd and then choose the disk icon in the market of Toshiba boot menu.

    I have therefore updated my BIOS to 1.60, used the "SD memory card Format" Toshiba utility, found a boot for example, image copied to my SD card, rebooted, chose the diskette icon (I assume that this replaces the selectable boot order in Toshiba hardware utility) and unlucky - the machine from the HARD disk as usual.

    Does anyone have advice? Thank you!

    Hello

    AFAIK, you can create a bootable SD card using SD card start utility. In this case, the SD card has the same function as a startup MS-DOS disk. Unfortunately it will not help you because with this boot SD card, you can not see the contents of the HARD drive. Just the FAT32 partition is readable but not NTFS (available on your device). You can use the SD card to update the BIOS, or for the registration of the user password. All that s.

  • Starting from the sd card?

    Hello!

    Just purchased a m200 second hand and are now trying to install linux for a dual boot of installation. However, in case I have to restore XP or start it fails - can I start XP using a SD card? There is a utility for creating boot SD card, as I understand it, but it seems that I need a floppy image to copy to it - I can only create somewhere? Sorry if I missed something obvious - I'm not very used to Win XP...

    And: there are pictures on the hard drive on win - xp disks can they be used to create cd/dvd-s, if I would format the hd whold?

    It is not easy to give you a good answer because I don't know what image is on the HARD drive.

    I hope you have the recovery DVDs too using this DVD you can reinstall the unit whenever you want. I put t know what images you have on the HARD drive but if this image is a copy of the image of Toshiba is a ghost file and, as far as I know, it can be started by using Norton ghost application.

  • NB510 - boot from the SD card?

    Hello

    I have a question related to booting from SD cards.
    As my NB510 has no optical device, I thought to use an SD with Linux on it to boot from.

    The reason is that sometimes I need Linux and I don't wan to lose my Windows partition or another partition of my HDD with a 2nd OS.

    My experience is that more than one OS at a disk always causes unnecessary trouble.
    Unfortunately, it seems that the NB510 does not boot from the SD card.

    I created it with the Toshiba SD Memory Format Utility and "UNetbootin" to create a card with the last OpenSUSE Linux.

    When, in from the laptop and press F2 (or F12), all available drives be filed - but not my SD card (Yes, it was inserted). BIOS Insyde H2O also doesn't seem to provide the SD card as boot drive.

    So is it possible to get my NB 510 booting from SD card?

    Greetings from the Germany

    Hello

    Why you boot from the USB flash key t n?
    As much as I know the NB510 support the start of disk HARD primary, Network (LAN), USB, USB HDD and USB WEIRD memory.

    If booting from USB is certainly possible.

  • Satellite Pro A120 - how to identify the sound card

    Hello

    don't know if you can help me on this one, I have more or less the same problem.
    Bit long-winded, but we broken rececently, very clever thieves, stole a number of point with my computer with disks of Toshiba bag. (LOL) the lap top was next to the bag on the desk, they left.

    Since then contracted a virus which means I had to completely format the hard drive and installed XP.

    No problem, but now I can not find the audio drivers right. Q. How can I identify the sound card on the top of the Tower?

    You n t know what sound chip has your laptop?
    On the Europe of Toshiba page you can find the drivers for this model of laptop.
    I can see that the Realtek sound card driver has been released and so I'm 100% sure that the sound chip was made by Realtek.

  • Gigashot K40HE - update the firmware on the SD card does not work

    Hello

    IBought a Gigashot K40HE 2 years and everything was good until he stopped keep the date in mind.

    I had the assistance of Toshiba phone told me to update the firmware with the following procedure:
    1. prepare a formatted, empty SD card.
    2. Insert an SD card to the card reader. Copy the firmware file
    (file name must be "psd.bin") in the SD card. Make sure that the new firmware file is copied to the SD card.
    3. Insert the SD card into the DV.
    4. Insert the battery in the DV.
    5. Insert the adapter in the DV. (dual power supply)
    {color: #ff0000} 6. press on "Power button" to power. Then the LCD displays 'FWUPDATE YES OR NO'. Select "YES".
    and press 'OK '. The DV will update automatically the FW. {color}
    7. after that the FW update completed. LCD display will show "OK". And then, will auto power off.

    Everything was good until 6... The DV starts as shown. It justs starts normally, asking me to set the date as every time I turn on my DV.

    I tested with a SD card that usually work on other devices, so I guess that the card is not defective. It's a card SD transcend 1 GB 45 x. And I know that the card is seen by the DV, because it creates folders on it for recording photo or video.

    Has anyone an idea to help me sort this out?

    Best regards
    Ozhades

    Hello ozhades,

    before you start an update of the firmware, it is very important the battery completely full.

    After the battery is fully charged please do the fw update again.

    Best regards

  • Re: Camileo S10 - very slow when the SD card is in.

    My Camileo S10 was working fine for months with my 8 GB ScanDisk Ultra II memory card.
    Now, when I start the camera, it is very slow to start and operate (a few second delay for each operations).

    When I remove the card SD and trun on the camera, it works fine.

    Is this a known issue?
    An idea for me?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a problem with the SD card inserted.
    I think you should try to format the card CD and it should check again.
    If this will not help and you won't see a performance improvement you should replace the SD card and should try another.
