Customer Reviews of Transcend TS2GSDM 2GB Mini-Secure Digital Card

Failed after 30 days of use
I bought this new from Amazon (not a third party) to use in my HP iPAQ 6515. It worked fine for 30 days and then I had trouble accessing the files on the card. I moved it to a USB reader and reseated the miniSD a bunch of times into the SD adapter, and also reseated the SD adapter a bunch of times into the USB reader (to make sure the contacts were clean). Windows XP could not read the card. I tried to use CHKDSK, but XP reported CHKDSK does not work on RAW drives. It asked me to format it. Admitting I lost my files, eventually, I did do a format, attempting both a quick and full. Neither worked. I also hoped a quick format would fix it and allow me to attempt data recovery with something like Restoration. I tried to read it again in my iPAQ and it did not recognize it. <

>Although this is my first miniSD card, I am a little leary now about storing important data on this brand of card. This is the first SD type card to fail on me. I have used Sandisk, Dane-Elec, and ATP but only SD (not miniSD) cards without problems. <

Good buy
This was a good buy. I had an initial moment of panic when it seemed like the adapter wouldn't work. I got it to work after a few minutes of fiddling. I work in tech support so it definitely wasnt me- had to apply a little brute force and it worked just fine. I highly recommend this little item.
