Had some friends have their SD cars format randomly. SO it's not just a one time thing like some people with Sandisk cards. Last Shot Photography

Don't you read the threads? "CARD FORMATTED!!! WHAT TO DO" "Lost all my pictures..." etc Last Shot Photography

Not the card doing it on its own. I'm not saying it can't happen, just can't wrap my brain around it. Derek

How hard is to to understand a memory based piece of hardware loses its memory. It's quite simple really. Last Shot Photography

I consider reformatting to be when you load the card in you camera or PC and hit "format". I would not call a loss of data "reformatting" or "formatting". Derek
