So u think a fake memory card will fail to format? Dude u are funny. The best way to buy a genuine SD card is to buy from reputable stores like slot, more expensive than roadside but u are getting the real deal, that is where I buy all my SD cards. A fake SD card will format but will be very slow to write and read files. I remember a friend's fake 'sandisk' card that I tried sending a file of 1gb into.. it took almost 1 and half hour to transfer a file of 1gb. The kind of SD cards that will struggle to play high quality music files.

The best way to know if an SD card is fake or genuine is to download SD insight from the play store, launch the app and if the sd card is genuine it will show the name, manufacture date and capacity, just like the image below. And if u wanna know write and read speed, download A1 SD bench. If ur Sd class is class 4 the it should write at average of 4MB/s, class 6 should write t 6MB/s, class 10 should be around 10MB/s. If ur write speed is way off the class written on the SD card then its probably fake.

People like you should have opened a thread like this.

That is one big problem we face in this world.

I'm not the poster but u can't put a hard drive into ur phone can u? By the way it depends on the manufacturer and the class of the card. If the 128gb is rated U1 (u stands for ultra high speed ) then it has write speed of minimum of 10MB/S. Sold for around 10k. If it is rated U3, then it will write at minimum of 30MB/s. That is insanely fast and the price is around 14-16k depending on the manufacturer.

Well it depends on what u use ur card for I've never had an SD card or flash die on me. I have a 32gb SanDisk flash drive permanently in my car that I have been using for 4 yrs now. 4gb u say? Lol, that cannot even record more than 1hr of FHD video, and if u are recording in 4k, I bet it won't record more than 10 -15 mins. So if u are a YouTuber that record lots of videos, even 64gb won't be enough, plus u need a card with high rated speed for easy and quick trasfers. But if all u need it for is just music then 4gb might be enough for u. Even my music files take more than 8gb.

Empty headed blogger, you choose tech niche, but can't even differentiate a fake & real memory card.

The way I check mine is by asking the seller to allow me send bulky file like video of black panther. If its enter then it is confirm
yeah that's a sure way to check ur mc,cos if it's fake then anything upwards 200 to 300 ish mb will be corrupted. At least for the smaller sd card stopped buy roadside cards long ago so I don't really know max size of larger sd cards cool. If u want cheap sd cards go search Aliexpress u will find one that fits ur budget.

U3: write speed of minimum of 30MB/s. Very fast, found mostly on 128gb upwards SD cards.

what about corrupted sd cards? those ones are usually complete in size but they corrupt files on the device

Read speed is how fast data can be read on ur sd card, write speed is how fast ur sd card can had data written on it. If u have an and card with slow wrote speed, let's say class one, then it would take time for pictures taken with it to be processed. It would also struggle in video recording and might not even be able to record full HD or 4k wothout hanging because the speed of the card cannot keep up with the data being recorded. Also it will lead to slow transfer of data into the SD card. I've seen some cards that take up to 10 minutes just to transfer a file of 30mb, how then would u transfer a file of 2gb? It
would just hang along the way.

Same thing with read speed. Let's say u manage to get some files on the SD card, if the read speed is too slow it might not be able to process the files in the card like music and videos without hanging.

In summary, it would take less time to transfer files into a higher rated class memory card than a lower rated card. And for memory cards that are fake, they might corrupt ur data, become too slow to display files or might not even accept large files.
