Try testing to see if they're genuine
Use h2testw

 

[arcziiiii]

Yes it is, genuine and ok. I tested. Its not a cards issue.

What format are the cards? Exfat or fat32

 

[arcziiiii]

FAT32

 

[arcziiiii]

so no one has resolution?

 

[duckbill007]

That error occurs only when system can not rename file. Usually it means corrupted filesystem.

 

[arcziiiii]

But why? The card is empty and not damaged, working on phone or camera.

 

[iiTzSamurai]

search SD Memory Card Formatter
and format the sd card with that program
try both exfat and fat32

But why? The card is empty and not damaged, working on phone or camera.

card is most likely fake, only providing you enough space for a couple of games. I can't find this card anywhere other than 3 listings on ebay and their all the same with no retail packaging.

Where did you buy the card from?

 

[arcziiiii]

do you think that it is a fake?

see if you can fill the card up from files on your pc and see if you can use all 512gb from pc

Sdcard is definitely fake. I can't even find the exact same card anywhere apart from ebay.... I'd personally get a sandisk from a reputable seller like amazon

You can still get fakes on Amazon. But you'll have a better chance than ebay etc

SD Card Formatter formated the card in exFAT system, its ok? I heard that for Switch recommended is FAT32 system. So exFAT will be ok?
