We have an embedded system running Windows Embedded Standard 7 (SP1 beta) on an SSD hard drive. We log data periodically on a SD card.
We had a power loss while the software was running (therefore the SD card was being written) and it corrupted the file system.
When I tried to format the SD card, I was able to sucessfully format it but the old file system kept coming back.
I had to finally format it using SD Formatter 3.0 (http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter_3/) to get it back in shape.
Can anyone explain what happenned ? Why did the file system get corrupted ?
I thought about that - we use a standard Kingston SD/2GB and we thought it was not so dodgy. Could it be ? :) – HW2015 – 2011-02-11T08:46:34.893
Hmm... less likely. Depends where you bought it. If not bought from a really reputable supplier it might be a knock-off copy. – quickly_now – 2011-02-11T09:55:20.827
I will try to reproduce the issue with an industrial-grade Transcend SD Card. – HW2015 – 2011-02-11T10:36:50.383
