      Hi,

      Long time rack user here 😀 Had 3 but sold the last one DSP 4500 during Covid.

      Couldn’t live with one so just bought a H80000FW 😀

      Updated the firmware OK using the flash card 4Gig. Reformatted the card hoping to use it to store presets but when saving I can’t select the card as an option?

      Any help or reason why this is the case?

       

      Thanks Chris

      I assume you mean you are using a CF card with a PCMCIA adapter? My initial intuition The H8000 is very picky about the formats of the CF card; we recommend only using the format that the card is programmed with out of the box (FAT16, with certain flags set), but most OS’s don’t support FAT16 formatting easily.  I would suggest trying a tool like gparted (https://gparted.org/ ) to format the drive as FAT16.  Note: that tool will just as happily format your hard drive, so exercise care.
