THANKS for the advice, it helped, however I did not test it outside of the device. (i can not find a tool for the mac that does what I needed)
When I took it out, i stuck in another Patriot 8GB class 4 card. This one goes noticably faster during the test and results in s write speed 9 and read of 16, and shows up as ClassUnknown,
I tried reformatting the original Patriot 8GB Class 4 and it kept showing as a 7 GB card. I rebooted from Snow Leopard to Vista, and Vista only wanted it to be a 6 GB card. I then tried to format it in AmonRA, and it became a GB card. I inserted it into an LG Lotus, which sees with 7.84 GB of free space.
After all of that shuffling around, the original Patriot is now seen as a Class 4 again, and has also acheived a noticable change during the speed check, however nothing even close to the second patriot, I guess the original 8gb will go in a covert video device.
Thanks to ALL that helped me.
