Re-writing the data in the same block refreshes the data and so increase the speed. I must say I don't really understand the underlying tech of SSD but he makes a point and a recent frefresh on one of my machines here has defo made a difference GRC h Awesome     I am familiar with Gibson Research from the 80's. I have a guitar FX pedal that takes the Type-1 CF card, 2GB. I sourced some on eBay and they just wouldn't be recognised "Insert disk for drive e:" On the GRC site, there are some free utilities. I downloaded "InitDisk" which instantly brought my CF cards to life   Cheers, Cap'n
