Hey Smile

This has been already discussed on the forum - I tried finding the link for you but couldn't find it. I'm not an expert BUT it appears that some manufacturers use a GB as exactly 1,000,000,000 bytes while an actual GB has 1,073,741,824 bytes. So a 16GB case would be = 14.9 GB
[someone correct me if I am wrong]

Without getting any further into this I can say that I've had no issues with Samsung SD cards, but did encounter issues with other manufacturers.
You can find me on IRC, Discord and Twitter
