Why Do Dash Cam Memory Cards Frequently Get Damaged?
1 Answers
The frequent damage to dash cam memory cards is mainly due to two reasons. Below is a detailed explanation of the common causes of memory card damage: 1. Poor quality of the memory card. 2. Issues with the dash cam, such as high voltage or current, which may burn out the memory card. Additional tips for handling frequent memory card damage in dash cams: 1. It is recommended to use high-speed memory cards with a write speed of at least 20MB/s, and regularly format the card (once every 3 months), replacing it with a new one after a year. Additionally, try to lower the resolution while maintaining clarity. 2. Do not randomly insert or remove the TF card while the dash cam is reading or writing data. Always turn off the dash cam before inserting or removing the memory card. Forcibly removing the card can easily damage it, as memory cards do not support hot-swapping. In short, it is best to minimize inserting and removing the memory card from the dash cam. Generally, a memory card used in a dash cam can last several years without any issues.
