Hi folks, a SteamDeck question

So I had this second SD card which is the same model as my main one. I started getting write errors when was trying to install a new game and when I was trying to launch any game from it, it just wouldn’t run. (no error, I was just back to library)

I formatted it using the Game mode option but had the same results. Then I formatted it using the KDE partition manager (deleted the partition and created a new ext4 one). From that moment the SD card is not shown anywhere, the format sd card button is grayed out (like there’s no SD card in the system) , it doesn’t appear in storage, it doesn’t show in desktop mode in partition manager whatsoever.

Is the SD card toasted? Any suggestions?

P.S. When I formatted it using the partition manager I didn’t put a name on the partition , I read somewhere that this sometimes leads to partitions dissapearing

    Did you get the new one from the same place as the old one? It’s possible you got a bad or fake card.

      The thing is it worked for a month. Then I didn’t use for some time and when I tried it again it happened :/
