BlackVue High Endurance Class 10 Micro SD Card 128GB For BlackVue Dash Cam

The card completely got corrupted within one month. One day my camera just refused to turn on. I tried turning my car off and on and unplugging the camera but nothing would get it to turn back on. I let it slide for two days to see if something would magically happen and sure enough, the camera powered on the next day; however, it kept telling me to check my SD Card. I took it out, put it into my laptop, and tried to reset it using the blackvue software and windows itself. Every time I plugged it into my laptop it froze my entire PC. After waiting about 20 minutes I slowly started regaining functionality. The only issue was I could not actually open the card in file explorer. I would double click on it and nothing would happen. I soon came to realize that my OS was just reading the card very slowly. It would literally take about 20 minutes to just open it in file explorer etc. The same went for the black vue software. After a couple of hours of waiting and crawling through the menus I finally got the blackvue software to attempt to format the card. After it tried formatting I got some error stating it could not finish the format. I then tried formatting via windows and that did not work either. I then tried using diskpart and even that did not work. It said there was some IO issue. Long story short, I could not fix it. It was beyond repair. I had a somewhat difficult time getting a refund as Amazon sent me to the manufacturer and then the manufacturer sent me back to amazon in an effort to find the supplier so I can talk to them. Ultimately Amazon took it back and refunded me. There is a samsung high performance card for $35 dollars and is the same size. It says in the description it is made for high performance dashcams and security cameras. Looking at those reviews it looks like lots of people use it on their blackvues. I would recommend going that route. My installer also told me I should not have gotten that card as a lot of his customers claim their black vue cards fail. Be warned.

I love all the storage space it has..

I don't know if the issue is caused by the memory card or the BlackVue camera, but I have the same issue many others have. The disk has become "write protected" and you can't erase any files, or format the disk with any method. BlackVue tells me that nothing in the camera can write protect the card. So IMO that means the camera and/or SD card are faulty. Pretty annoying considering I believed the marketing that they tested their cards to have superior longevity. If you haven't noticed, they cost 4-5x as much as any other similar SD card.Oh, the SUPER annoying part, is the issue occurred in October 2018. I just found out in March 2019 that my dash cam wasn't recording all winter. No error messages or anything, all the indicating lights looked normal, etc. The current firmware will tell you if you have a card failure, but it's kind of a pain to connect the dashcam wifi I stopped worrying about it. It had been working fine for 6 months prior no issues.Here is what they told me, "To be honest with you, we encounter a lot of this issue with regards to SD card and I regret to inform you that the only way is to have a sd card replacement. "Awesome.Fortunately I bought the extended warranty through Amazon/Asurion, so I should get reimbursed.I'm not certain what 3rd party cards will work, I tested a 128gb Patriot MicroSD card, which did not work. I have a 16gb blackvue card that I'm using for now.In my experience, 128gb will hold about 3-4 days, including recording stuff in parking mode. This is on a DR750S-2CH.

Works great for a while got it back in January. Now having issues with it. Two weeks ago I got the check SD card message and wasn't able to do anything with it since it's write protected for some reason and now I'm not able to upgrade the firmware even though it's not giving errors when upgrading OTA via app.
