It's not a high performance microSD mind you, but Nintendo Switch only supports up to UHS-1 (104MB/s) speed anyway, so this particular microSD is very well suited to the Switch. Right now you can get a genuine 1TB microSD for $125, and it's had a historic low price of $109.99. I'm guessing the 1TB microSD card you ordered had a "too good to be true" price? Make sure you check who you're buying from when shopping on Amazon, it can often be a marketplace seller rather than Amazon or the brand manufacturer directly. When I went to fill it with data using my PC, data would disappear as I kept loading it, and quickly realised that it was a very low capacity microSD card falsely reporting that it was high capacity.Īlways be very careful about where you buy microSD cards from, even if it's on Amazon. So there's no advantage gained using a U3 card in the switch, but if you wanted a faster, more future-proof card, you can go U3 (in case you think you might use the card for something else later in the future)(Otherwise, you can ignore the U3 cards for the Switch).Įdited on Mon 20th June, 2022 21:43 by I've run into this in the past too.Ī Samsung brand microSD card I'd bought on Amazon turned out to be a counterfeit sold by someone on the Amazon marketplace. The Switch hardware can only utilize U1 card speeds. There's also a U3 speed 1tb Sandisk for $165. I doubt that $125 sale price will last past today. Before today, I have NEVER seen them below $165-$180. Currently on sale for $125, that's the best price I've ever seen. If you follow those rules, you should be ok. Stay away from third party sellers to be safe.ģ) Only order from an Amazon page that has thousands, or tens of thousands+ positive reviews.
It's Amazon.įollow these three rules to land legit cards on Amazon at the best prices.ġ) Only order a big brand names like Sandisk, Samsung (or if you trust another big name brand, ok.)Ģ) Only order a card that is shipped AND sold by Amazon. Return that card.Īs far as I know, there's only one place you can reliably buy micro sd cards for the best prices. If it's your card, you may want to return it or exchange it.Įdited on Sun 19th June, 2022 18:00 by Yeah, I'd stay away from ebay.
#Nintendo switch sd card problem mp4
The problem was reproducible when I plugged the card into the pc - it would fail/freeze if I tried to save or move larger mp4 video files, or multiple picture files. I could still take pictures, and transfer smaller picture files, though. I thought my phone was glitching, but it turned out to be the failing card. The phone would freeze when trying to do jobs with big files, like recording hd video, or trying to watch video files. When my 2 year old 64gb Samsung micro sd card failed on my phone. Most codes can be explained that way, and have directions, if needed.
Is there anyway to save this data ? what step did I do wrong ?If formatting the card with the Switch didn't solve it, then something else is going on, and you may want to contact Nintendo support.ĭo you get an error code? You can plug error codes into the Nintendo Support page search bar.
It took several hours to copy this Nintendo folder so I really don’t want to delete the data. To copy over all my games I copied the Nintendo folder from the old Emummc folder on the old SD card but I’ve just rebooted the system and it comes up with a message saying “This microSD card is being used by another Nintendo Switch and the data needs to be deleted” I’ve installed a bigger SD and wanted to build exactly the same system from the ground up on a bigger SD, I’ve created all the new partitions Fat32 and hidden 31gb partition for emummc on the new SD card, using Hekaki and everything works great and I can boot into Atmosphere no problems and run all the homebrew stuff so I now have a perfectly running brand new build running CFM and Emummc but now I want to move over all my old games which I had on the old SD card which is 200GB I was using a fat32 partition with hidden emummc partition So i’m upgrading to a bigger SD on the same 2017 version 1 Switch
