Perform low level formatting when you think that the recording/reading speed
of a memory card has dropped. Performing a low-level format on (initializing)
a memory card erases all data on the memory card. As you cannot retrieve
the erased data, exercise adequate caution before performing a low-level
format on the memory card.
