Found this, so far so good formatting and installing WB:
These values will define your card as ~7400MB which should be less than its real capacity, but close enough:
Cylinders = 15000
Heads = 16
Blocks per track = 63
Blocks per Cylinder = 1008
Park head at cylinder = 15000
**** didn't work and failed format around 50%
Which would be around 4 GB mark. Could be bad SD card, more likely limitation of SD-SCSI adapter (some are very limited indeed, in theory OS is happy with drives up to 2TB, but will give false sizes for partitions. Always stick to 2Gb or less partition sizes on 3.1).
Always use quick format on solid state media. Flash memory does not like sequential repeated writes. (Reads are OK).
