After 2 years of use my Garmin Mini2 dash cam showed there is a problem with the micro sd card. The instructions advise reformatting the card every 6 months to prolong its life, which I didnt do
A fast reformatting didnt help but after a full reformatting on my computer (which took hours) it seems to be working again for now. But I want to replace it.
The camera came with a 15 gb Transcend class 10 but I replaced it with a 64GB PNY class 10 which is the one that failed.. While it was working it seemed to cope with the necessary write speeds etc.
The cost of a new cd card every 2 years wont break the bank but any advise on a particular brand, or type of card that might have a longer life ,but without paying a premium for speed performance etc that the camera doesnt actually need , would be appreciated.
I know the advice is to use a reputable well known brand ,from a reputable supplier to minimise the chance of it being a fake,. As far as I was aware at the time PNY is considered a reputable brand and I dont think it was a fake. .
