Hi all,
Seems the Micro SD I use in my gateway failed. I am in need of a new one so I thought I would ask the community for help in choosing the best possible option for me.
What's the best card for gateway reliability wise?
I was on a SanDsk 32GB Extreme and I am not able to format it, erase files or anything really with it. I have tried native windows software (format, chkdsk and device manager), tried with 3rd party software.(easus) I tried using Linux Mint to format it. And I tried formatting in a smart phone. (s3) I get different variants of format failed on all devices. Sometimes it says disk is locked and my reader doesn't have that option with Micro SD. Tried different readers too. So now I am trying to reach out to all you tempers out there to choose my next card
Does anyone know if this is common? What can I do to prevent it or fix it? Should I skip class 10? Would a lower class be more reliable? I don't mind trading speed for reliability as long as it wont affect the game play.
Do you guys think it would be better get a few smaller cards? Or would you try another 32GB class 10 and hope to get more than 2 or 3 months out of it?
What works for you guys?
Thanks,
