Failed stock SD Card on 6HC 1.02
-
Just wanted to let you guys know that the stock SD card that came with my 6HC 1.02 (so super new, not in use for long) just failed. Windows just locks up trying to mount it and I can't do anything with it anymore. This happened during idling of the printer.
Luckily I have backups of my config, so other than figuring out why the heck the printer crashed and didn't want to turn on anymore, it didn't cost me a lot of time or money.
At the time I was on 3.5b2, not sure if related, but I'll leave that info here anyway.In any case, just wanted to make it known in case there was a bad batch of cards or something.
Keep backups of your stuff people
Here's the card in question:

SD cards are unfortunately a very fickle format.

@Diamondback thanks for letting us know, we will replace the card. Please drop warranty@duet3d.com a line referring to this thread.

@T3P3Tony That is very kind of you, but I really don't think the overall time, effort and expenses are warranted here for a tiny SD card. I'd rather have the Duet Team put that saved money towards the team fund
Really just wanted to let you know about it in case a pattern appears. -
@Diamondback thanks! lets hope a pattern does not appear!
