Title: Test CF card for bad sectors / corruption?
Post by: beauchampy on April 18, 2015, 10:38:37 AM
I recently bought a 64gb 1066x Lexar CF for raw video and I've noticed a few corrupted frames which I have never seen on my two 32gb Lexar 1000x cards.

Is there a way to test the card? Similar to a sector test on a HDD? If it's a bad card I'd like to know so I can RMA it..

Many thanks!
