What is the best way to copy an sd card to a new sd card. Does the new card need to be formatted in treo first or just drag files to desktop then to new card

I use the 2nd approach (copy the SD card files to a folder on my desktop, then copy those files to the new card).

That's what I figured but do I need to format card in my treo first. Also I have 2 card readers can I just plug them both in and copy direct to new card.

I agree with Gee...Use the desktop to do this. I actually took my new sd card and just put it in the treo waited a few seconds and then pulled it out and transfered the desktop folder to it. I over wrote the folders the treo had put on my card and have not had any issues. The only thing that had changed was my card, so if you are changing the phone etc...you may need to do more.
