I am sure "every time" is a huge overkill. Just using it in a reader

crappy no-name memory card. Have been using Sandisk memory cards for
the past 10 years with no card ever having this problem (and not
formatting them ever, not even the recommended first format
"in-camera").

I think I started to format my cards in my camera ever since that
SanDisk 12-in-1 or whatever fancy name it was reader malfed on me. I
remember posting a question to the list that resulted in the advise I am
repeating now. Having adopted this practice and having found it useful
and headache-free I offer it to others.
You may be right, Kris, but I think that either way using quality
hardware and consistent practices is the key.
In that respect it also makes sense to point out that 1x32GB card may be
actually worse idea than 2x16GB card, 'cause if one breaks, you can
always switch to the other.
