Hi - and welcome to the forum!!

There's a "Search" button at the top of the page that will allow you to find all kinds of stuff.

I did a quick search and came up with a whole bunch of threads about the SD card for the PDR - here's just one:

https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...-to-fat32.html


You can read in there that the SD card must be formatted to FAT32, but in that thread there's a response that says the link the guy in post#1 put up is unsafe. So, do a search and you'll find a lot more info that may help you find a better app to do the formatting with.

Good luck, and again - welcome!!

There is a program called HPUSBDisk. It is free and will format your card to FAT32. I've done several of them. The program is a little weird. You open it and "run as administrator", then select your drive and hit "format". Works very quick.

It must be a cat "10" which shows on the sd care itself. In the springmoutain class we received a 16 gig sd card with the class and there is no formatting required as long as it is a cat 10 card. Not sure about the 64 gig card.

A 64 has to be reformatted. A 32GB can plug right in.
