Review on πŸ’Ύ PNY 256GB PRO Elite Class 10 U3 V30 microSDXC Flash Memory Card: Unleash Optimal Performance and Massive Storage Capacity by Jeremy Carpenter

Revainrating 1 out of 5

My 512GB card looks broken

I received my PNY U3 Pro Elite MicroSD Card - 512GB - (P-SDUX512U3100PRO-GE) yesterday and Windows recognizes it as 462GB in the exFAT file system. I always run a test to make sure the card is bug free and not fake and I'm already getting mixed results. I've noticed that when plugged directly into my old Dell XPS 13 using the SD card adapter that came with the micro SD, my laptop recognizes the card MOST of the time. 2 times out of 7 my computer freezes for a few seconds. I tested the card with adapter bundled multiple times with 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.

Pros
  • Record and transfer videos, photos, music, files and more from microSD-enabled host devices such as Android smartphones and tablets, action and surveillance cameras, drones, computers, etc.
Cons
  • Something else
