I have a 1.5 Y.O. DR 1000 and suddenly files which are on the SD card do not appear in the DR 1000. They are visible (on a Linux machine) by mounting the SD card through a USB cable attached to the IREX on the other end, and also by plugging the SD card in a SD-to-USB reader (I do not have a SD slot in my laptop). Checking / repairing the card does not show any problem in the filesystem. If this helps, it is a 2GB card; its brand is PNY. This had happened with another card (a SanDisk, IIRC) and I bought the current one because i suspected of corruption in the previous one. The current one is about 2 weeks old, and the files disappeared after a hard lock which forced me to reboot the device. I am running the rc3 beta candidate with Mack's firmware update v8 (see the Developer's corner).

Any ideas / hints? For my work, disappearing files is a big no-no. The files which disappear seem to be the youngest ones.

Thanks for any help!
