SD Problem

2022-02-13 03:01:20

Model: Tapo C310

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.1.12 Build 211126 Rel. 15622n(4555)

Mi problema es que no puedo formatear mi SD desde la cámara o desde la computadora porque está protegida contra escritura, esto no se puede solucionar con nada en el foro, ya intente con software de terceros y nada ha funcionado. Al parecer cuando la mempria se llena es que queda incerbible... queda protegida contra escritura y nada lo resuelve.
Espero que me puedan ayudar ya que he visto que no hay solucion a este problema desde hace años! Esperare unos dias y si o hay respuesta regresare las camaras por garantia.

@Solla-topee

Hello, good afternoon.

I have not been able to solve the problem with the format of my SD memory, with your recommendations.


I send you the requested information:

1. ADATA microSDHC Card UHS-I CLASS 10. 32 GB.

2. photo of the error if format on Tapo APP failed.

3. photo of SD card.

4. photo of H2testw test result

5. Tapo APP version.

Note: I have noticed that the memory marks it as full and it can no longer continue recording, but I can read the videos it has inside. I can read and copy them as much as in the Tapo application and on my computer, but I cannot delete any file (the delete option does not appear in the menu by right clicking) nor format the SD.

Thank you for your time.

@Solla-topee

If its real capacity is 1GB, why did it fit about 30GB of videos? I can copy these to the pc without any problem.

And that has no repair? I have another exactly the same in another identical camera and the truth is I have to format it before it fills up because I'm afraid the same thing will happen to it.

Hello @Malgaras

Some correction in my last reply, after translating the error message, I found the H2testw warning is also about 'medium is write-protected ' and the scanning stopped at 1 GB. found some third -party articles and will send to you by private message later, you may give that a try.

At the same time, I would like to escalate your case through support email TKID220215452, please check your inbox, thank you.
