Less than 4 GB (FAT16):
2 GB SD (SanDisk) FAT16 mit 32K: format X: /FS:FAT /A:32K

4 GB and more (FAT32):
4 GB SD or SDHC (Transcend) FAT32 mit 16K: format X: /FS:FAT32 /A:16K


"X" is the drive letter.
Interesting suggestion. I assume your directions for formatting relate to Windows.
How do i do this on a Mac? (via Terminal, maybe?)
