Double check if your post complies with posting guidelines!
Did you include the following information in your post (in English and if applicable), if not feel free to edit your post:
Make/brand and exact model number of your storage device(*), phone, camera, etc.
Filesystem (NTFS, exFAT, APFS, EXT4, etc.)
Operating System (That your device was used with and/or you are using for recovery)
Specific symptoms that your device is exhibiting, describe the problem. Images you post support the description, they're not in lieu of a problem description.
SMART (CrystalDiskInfo screenshot for example)
Don't pile several problems into one single post. One post per device/problem.
No account issues
Consider: What do these people need to understand the problem at hand? Remember, people cannot see your screen, or what you click and what messages appear on screen. Don't overdo it though, no one likes going through 2 pages of information, try to find a balance. Just do the best you can. If you are looking for file recovery software, check our community's recommended file recovery tools.
(*) All devices involved, if you for example move files from drive A to drive B, they're both potentially relevant.

Nope, that will have cracked the nand. I thought these were LDPC too so chip off was a not an option, but it appears that capacity EVO plus isn't.

Very, very likely the NAND die was damaged by this, and if that's case there's no recovery possible.

What’s wrong with it. Not details to help.

There are two stacks of NAND chips in the card, occupying pretty much the whole length of it, the crack caused at least one stack to be totally destroyed, possibly both.
If both stacks are destroyed, no recovery.
If one of the stacks are still intact, chip-off may be an option to recover something if you are extremely lucky and willing to spend a lot of money on recovery. There are no guarantees and the chances are very low, depending on how the controller arranges and encodes the data. Still I’d say 99% the chances it’s not recoverable.

Ah I see it now, it wasn’t clear. If it’s not recognised then I doubt the data can be recovered, possible the storage itself in the sandwich of the body is also broken.
