SD Card format

[Ziani]

Hi Guys.....As a matter of interest is it necessary to format the SD Card occasionally?

Thanks

It shouldn't be. However if you are exceedingly rough on your SD card, both physically and through file management, it might be a good idea to periodically backup all data, format and restore.

However, sd cards that seem to be in constant need of reformatting, could be indicative of impending failure.
