hello i have just but a micro sd card and it is very hot, and i can’t read it with the computer
Hi Beji,
Dear member of SanDisk Community, welcome.
Please:
Test your microSD 128 GB, in other laptops, directly to its port-card (not USB card-reader).
Also, see what capacity and format, have in “properties”.
In PC, use only USB card-reader of brand, of high quality (SanDisk, Kingston, Lexar, Samsung, etc).
Because most and the cheap, are junk, not have the chips.
Luck, and then you tell us, what happened, please.
Regards, Alfred. (Google translated)
if the card is getting very hot it will need to be replaced. contact sandisk support.
This might be an older issue, but many people still face it regularly. SD cards can overheat due to physical damage or environmental factors, often shortening their lifespan and leading to data loss. To address this, you can try solutions like using a cooling pad or formatting the card. I came across an article that provided a detailed guide on how to fix SD card overheating, and it covered everything you need to know.
Oh, that’s unusual—maybe it’s a compatibility issue, or the card’s power handling is off? Did you try a different reader or port, or maybe it’s just the card being… temperamental?
Let it cool down before trying again. You can also using another adapter, USB card reader, or a different computer. Yes, there is no one universal reason for this problem to show up. Your micro SD card might be defective or a short in the card’s internal components could cause overheating. This article may help you repair a damaged SD card.
