Depend on the maker, but 64gb can be anything from 58gb-64gb. Problem with sd2vita adapter is they seem to work well the first time, but when you take the microSD out, they break so randomly. I just believe you have more chance of adapter gone bad destroy the microSD than a normal microSD card defect if you can copy so much into it.

That's why getting the all metal eject slot/full PCB v2.0 last forever

It does not depand that much, if your 64 GB says 64 GB there is something fischy. 64.000.000.000.000 / 1024 /1024 / 1024 / 1024 should give a good reference of what to expect.

sd2vita adapter that damage sd card could indeed happen but in the case of this issue I'm almost certain that it is a non legit SD card.

My experience with sd2vita is non of the above. No issue with legit cards and no damage at all. I always take them out to add stuff.

The best way to check if a card is legit or fake is to try to fill it up and see if it holds the contents. I recently got a 256gb card and I had a doubt that it was fake so I started copying 8gb folders again and again and after 2 tries it started deleting the older ones to make space for the new ones, turned out it was a 16gb chinese card that shows 256gb size programmatically. A tool to do the same is H2testw, it copies random data to card and reads back after filling it up telling you how much was lost and what was retained.

I would suggest buying memory cards from AliExpress, I have bought two 128gb cards for about $28 CAD each, write speed is 90MB/s and cards are legit, using one of them in vita now, had no problem, also bought sd2vita from there, everything works flawlessly. Can take a bit longer to arrive but saves you a lot of money and headache.
