Need technical support from FlexRadio? It's as simple as Creating a HelpDesk ticket.
is an older SD card still compatible?
Buying a 4 year old 6400M with ver 3.0.19 loaded. When I upgrade to the new version is the SD card still compatible? Or will I need to get a new SD card?

The later firmware installation will run some tests that may stress your SD card. If it happens to be the card original to your radio it may fail. But, there have been many that didn't fail. If for some reason it does fail, Flex Radio, usually will send you a replacement if you contact them. You can also purchase an SD card from Flex Radio before you attempt an upgrade as well. If all goes well, you'll have a good backup card for the future.
But, honestly, if the card is only four years old, it is unlikely it will fail.
