Why Memory Cards Fail
Memory cards are small, fragile, and prone to failure. Here are the most common scenarios.
Accidental Format
Formatted in-camera or on computer. Data usually still there until overwritten.
Card Corruption
"Card not formatted" error, corrupted file system, bad blocks.
Physical Damage
Broken card, cracked casing, bent pins, water exposure.
Controller Failure
Card not detected by any device. Dead controller chip.
