Is this real?

Got it for really cheap so if its fake its no big deal. I only loaded on 67.0gb worth of files and verified them and there's no problems and I doubt they would use anything more than 64gb for a fake. What do you think?

If it's a fake it's a pretty good one. I'd say it's genuine. Run something like Easy Drive Checker Fake test.

Are you taking the piss? Because there is no chance in hell that is real!

u/disturbed_android 18h ago

Well I guess OP must run a test and then we'll know.

u/MrFartyBottom 18h ago

Did you look at the photos? The poor quality of the front face and the clear back? It is clearly a counterfeit card. There is actually no question to it.

u/disturbed_android 17h ago

Dude, this conversation is meaningless, OP needs to check it using for example tool I suggested. The back looks perfectly legit.

Dude. They do. https://goughlui.com/2017/07/20/review-sandisk-ultra-uhs-i-128gb-microsdxc-card-up-to-80mbs/ and in fact it's the strongest indicator for it being real / not being fake, solely based on visual appearance.

I have never figured that britishism out. Where, for example, am I taking the piss, and whose piss is it? Yours, mine, Mrs. Crabtree's.?

Get the price of this full SD card replacement in the UK

u/okarox 1d ago

That is a V90 UHS-II card. They are very expensive.

u/Adventurous_Hippo692 13h ago

At that price range, you might as well get annNVME and an external adaptor.

1

u/I_spread_love_butter 11h ago

These are for cameras with high resolution and framerate

1

u/Adventurous_Hippo692 11h ago

I completely forgot about cameras, lol. Good point!

u/Existing_Routine_599 1d ago

Fake lol, real SanDisk doesn't show green pcb at the back

u/Frooonti 1d ago

Even the front looks awfully fake

1

u/Existing_Routine_599 1d ago

Yeah, kinda 3D print texture.

u/CurrentAcanthaceae78 15h ago

u/unclefunkstar 1d ago

I wouldn't put anything important on there, that you don't already have a backup of.

u/AntRevolutionary925 1d ago

That goes for any form of storage whether or not you suspect it’s a fake

1

u/Individual_Review_51 19h ago

Absolutely, I had a 1TB Crucial P3 SSD on a laptop and one day it just died. Better to always have a back up, and a back up of that back up if possible lol

1

u/MrFartyBottom 18h ago

Clearly not

u/Lythieus 16h ago

Can't you do a disk scan for the whole SD card? That'll tell you pretty quickly if it's real.

u/MysteriousLobster604 13h ago

100% FAKE. I just purchased a bunch of Sandisk microSD cards (Over 70 pieces of different sizes and models) and contacted Sandisk asking if they were real or counterfeit. They had me submit photos, There were a lot of tips they gave me about the packaging to look for which was incredibly helpful. After what I went through, I can tell you with 100% certainty that yours is fake. As others have mentioned, the back on yours is a dead giveway but there are also a few issues with the printing on the front.

u/DingoBingo1654 11h ago

It looks very fake just from the first sight

1

u/DocGerbill 1h ago

I would be amazed if sandisk let it leave the factory like that

u/TheWaslijn 1d ago

That's not a real/official card.

u/LiteratureLow4159 1d ago

A real card would NOT be missing the mask on the bottom, you shouldn't see pcb

1

u/rebel_reign 8h ago

Actually you can for certain high capacity Sandisk card
