Init timeout error when writing to SD card

On my 32bit v3, I often get the init timeout error when selecting the "write to sd" option.  I have to repeat the initialization several times to get it to work.  This never happens when I am not writing to the SD card.  I have tried several cards (all class 10 and faster), and some I can never get to initialize.  I have formatted the cards using the "Overwrite Format" option in SDFormatter, as recommended in the OpenBCI guide.

Anyone else have this problem?

    It is a frequent phenomena which also appends with the Raspberry family.

    Many low cost 8GB SD work. "Best is the enemy of the good"
    the 8GB one recommanded by OBCI always worked for us.

    This said one of our 32bitsV3 suddenly stopped working with any good SD...
    There is somewhere something fragile.
