Review on PNY Elite Class MicroSDXC Memory by Vince Dickey

Revainrating 1 out of 5

My 512GB card seems to be broken

Yesterday I received a PNY U3 Pro Elite MicroSD 512GB card (P-SDUX512U3100PRO-GE) and Windows recognizes it as 462GB in the exFAT file system. I always run a test to confirm the card is error free and not fake and I'm already getting mixed results. I've noticed that when my laptop was connected directly to my old Dell XPS 13 via the SD card adapter that came with the micro SD, it recognized the card quickly most of the time. 2 times out of 7 my computer freezes for a few seconds. I tested the card several times with the included adapter using H2testw_1.4 and the SD card failed three tests. I also tested three times with FAKEFLASHTEST_V1.1.2. One test failed, but two tests passed. Other micro SD card/adapter combinations work fine with my Dell XPS 13. My conclusion: I have a defective SD card or a defective adapter with me.
