SD card damage.
Posted: 08.08.17, 11:20
Hi all,
I have a SD card, Lexar, which I got this morning from a customer. The customer said that there is a lot of photo's on the card, but when we put the card in a card reader, it shows that the card is empty. The customer says that he was working on his desktop, accessing the card and then the power went out - it is common here to have power failures. I cannot use the Flash to check the card yet, I need some help with the connections to be able to read it. In the meantime, could a power surge or spike wipe out the contents of the card?
