Before starting to experiment with the Kobo Touch, I decided to clone the internal card - just in case. I used Win32-ImageWriter to read the original card and then I copied the image into two other cards. (One is an old Sony with no class marking, and the other a new Strontium card marked "class 6").

Both the clones work in the device, but they are noticeably slow compared to the original card.

So my question is -- what specification of card should I look for to get the original performance?

Could it be that the problem is with the formatting process done by Win32-Imagewriter (I read "on the net" that the formatting parameters can make a big difference to the actual speed of SDs).

I have one more question but I think I will post it with its own title.

Thanks
