    Have you tried formatting your SD cards to another cluster size?

    Format it as FAT16, either 16KB or 32KB clusters.

    FAT16 might appear as just FAT on the list. Below 'File System' there should be 'Allocation unit size' which also means cluster size.

    What's the advantage of FAT32 over FAT16 ?_?

    Oh there's a proper answer for this but I've forgotten - it might be somewhere in this forum. :X

    If you want the technical reasons, perhaps Microsoft or someone else can answer your question. When it comes to adapters, you use what works.
