Just recently I reported about a major price drop on the 4.0 generation Type A cards from OWC. Now you get it for $339 at BHphoto and Amazon. That’s a near 40% price drop! But there is an important info to share if you now own one of those cards:
PetaPixel reports that:
OWC discovered an unusual bug. After extended, continuous use, the card can lock up. OWC explains that this only occurs during “extreme” use, which it describes as an “edge case,” but it is technically possible to experience the issue.
If a user pushes their Atlas CFexpress Type A card to this extreme limit and runs into the issue, it will no longer be usable. However, OWC explains that the data on the card is not lost or inaccessible; it is simply that new data cannot be written on the card until the problem has been fixed.
