I just went back to verify, using the same SD card once on Vista, once on
XP. Vista standard format takes longer, and seems to zero the data space, XP
format is faster and seems to leave the data in place so you can still data
carve it. Undocumented feature?


Interesting find. Is this only on SSDs?
