The CFexpress card recall

[AlphaWorld]

I saw the report of the recall of Sony Tough CFexpress type A cards, and checked all my cards - fortunately all of mine are from earlier lots than the affected ones.

I thought it was interesting that they specified two ranges of numbers, for eight digit lot numbers and 9 digit lot numbers, but the nine digit range is identical, except for a zero on the end. I wonder if they have two plants, and one adds a zero on the end?

All my cards have eight digit lot numbers. I bought two at once and I think that’s how I got two with the same lot number.

Has anyone here been affected?

Not checked my cards yet but I don’t have many Sony ones anyway, too expensive.

If I remember correctly, and there is NO guarantee that I am, the one 4 years ago was for SD cards - this is CFexpressA.
