I have the Kobo firmware I mentioned above, but I'm not updating the firmware unless I'm forced to, past experience with firmware issues have burned me with updating on the regular. I have Calibre 4.21 (64 bit version), again I don't update unless I'm forced to. I love Calibre, but sometimes things don't work they way they did in previous versions.
Calibre communicates with the device to read the books on the card and the reader. It seems to break down somewhere in that "conversation", either on Calibre's side or the reader's side.
I updated the firmware when I bought a new 16G card sometime in the past year, and updated Calibre over the summer. BEFORE I updated to a new card I had the same problems withe "card errors" - which I why I switched cards, thinking it was a damaged sd card. I updated to this version of Calibre because I was having problems with the editor, and that was over the summer, I think. So everything except the computer and the physical reader is updated fairly recently.

To be honest, you really should update the firmware. The 4.25 firmware is that much better then the 4.21 firmware. I've run 4.21 and I am running 4.25 and I would go with 4.25 easily. 4.25 is better.
Anyway, if you have trouble with firmware updates, then something is wrong with the SD card or the Reader.
