Memory Cards And How They Get Corrupted

Corruption of a memory card can really be a nightmare problem to deal with. Maybe you have some of your important video clips on there; or even precious family photographs. However although the first reaction to a corrupted memory card would be despair, it is important not to panic immediately as there may be some way to save your data. However it is important to try not to get to this point because a lot of the time you will find that your data is gone forever. Here are some of the most common causes for memory card corruption;

 

- The construction of your memory card is very poor; this quite often happens with cheap memory cards.

 

- The memory card was still being used by the device when you removed it. For example taking the memory card out of the camera while it was processing an image or transferring an image from somewhere else could cause problems.

 

- The memory card might not have been correctly formatted to work with your device.

 

- You have allowed the memory card to become too full. It is important that you regularly download your memory card content to your computer. It is probably not a good idea to ever use it for long term storage of important data - especially if this is the only copy you have.

 

- The memory card has been exposed to moisture.

 

- The memory card you are using cannot cope with the number of photos that you are taking in quick succession. This means you are sending more photographs to the memory card to deal with when it is already processing another one.

 

- You could also lose data by taking photographs when your batteries are low and this could cause data on the memory card to be lost.

 

- You have turned off your camera before the camera has had the chance to finish working on the image you have just created.
