Have you ever had a USB stick or SD card break?
Broken in the sense that one day they stopped working without being destroyed by physical impact !?

Hello first of all, My question: I have a somewhat older PC from 2017, and out of curiosity, I ran CrystalDesk on it. The program now tells me (see attachment) that my hard drive is warning me because the "Reallocated Sectors" limit has been exceeded. The drive has over 15,000 hours of operation. Should I…
I would like to buy this game on Steam, but it's not (or no longer) available there. Now I'm wondering where the best place to download this game legally is.
Hey guys, I wanted to ask if the following SSD storage can be installed in my Asus TUF Gaming FX506HCB-HN1138W laptop. I'm a complete beginner when it comes to this and know absolutely nothing about it. SSD: https://www.idealo.de/preisvergleich/OffersOfProduct/201137219_-ssd-980-1tb-m-2-samsung.html I would really thank you.
Hello, I have an existing Windows 10 installation on my computer with a total of three SSDs. The current operating system is installed on C:, D: has many programs and games installed, and E: is practically empty at 500GB. Is it possible to install a separate Windows installation on it? If so, how? And how…
Hello, I have an Android phone and would like to get an iPad or tablet. I want to use it for school and for drawing. I'm currently leaning toward an iPad because it's easier to get files from teachers via AirDrop at school, rather than more complicated methods (like Teams or a screenshot from a…
I've been baking a lot lately. Just simple things, like pancakes or pizza. The pizza didn't turn out so well because the dough was too thick, but otherwise everything turned out well. How often do you bake?
Only SD cards, 4x SanDisk & 1x Samsung
Yeah, it’s been a couple of times.
An interesting phenomenon with a USB stick:
He suddenly couldn’t be described anymore. So neither change files nor add anything, nor format…
Micro SD cards I already had some broken in my hands. Rather in connection with embedded electronics such as Raspberry Pi and Co.
Yes with an usb stick, suddenly no longer was detected, no matter what device. That was the only exception.
SD Cards anyway, yes. The small parts are relatively sensitive.
SD cards that were originally no longer registered as a storage device. What no more partitions were visible – it simply made no difference whether card was inserted or not.
Can SD cards lose their initialization/formatting after some time in use?
For in the case of newly purchased SSDs, it is only necessary to initialize them before the first use in the data carrier administration.
This is not possible if the card is no longer registered as a storage device, and thus partitioning becomes impossible.
“Format”, i.e. create file system, is the last step.
But you could format your coffee cup as well.
I do not belong to the least, because I would also not examine it through the data carrier administration.
Instead, I would use lsblk for it. Its output is independent of the existence or non-existence of partitions or file systems on the storage device.
The mindset for my asusage was: In such a case, the least would read the SD card again into a PC and check it via the data carrier administration. Therefore, this error possibility cannot be ruled out without doubt.
A card that is no longer registered as a storage device cannot be initialized, quote, “in the data carrier administration”. Is there anything you’re complaining about?
“But this is not possible if the card is no longer registered as a storage device and thus partitioning becomes impossible.”
Did I say something else? If so, quote me.
SD cards and micro SD cards not yet, but 2 USB sticks.
The first USB stick that made my hockey was an Intenso 1GB stick in 2010 or so. The supernatant wasn’t even a single year and there was no obvious reason why he didn’t work anymore. From one to the other time, all the data that were stored on it were simply fussy and nothing could be stored with the stick.
In the second stick, it was due to an application error by a buddy of mine who simply pulled off the stick from laziness instead of clicking “safely remove” beforehand. The data on the stick is still legible, but although about 80 GB are still free from the 128GB stick, the stick is read-only due to this operating error and the write protection can no longer be overcome – and I have tried a lot.
One or two, these were then cheap, which I received from any advertising company. But I still keep the data safe somewhere else, so everything is chic.
Not yet.
e.g. some USB3 sticks from Platinum.
SD cards I had rarely and USB sticks were always functional.
never happened
