I bought a Micro Center branded 1TB Micro SD card directly from them 4 months ago. It died at the 3 month mark. Completely dead, no device would recognize that anything was inserted.
The MC warranty is 3 years, but to file a warranty claim you have to go to a brick and mortar location. Unfortunately I don't have one in my state, BUT if you start a chat session on their support page, they CAN process the warranty claim online...they just don't advertise it on their web site and it may take a few days of back and forth to get the RMA # and shipping instructions.

Regardless, MC appears to be making it right. I haven't received the replacement yet but I expect it within a week.
Some news said only less than 70% chips fully passed QC, the rest was sold to some companies for cheap products
I'm looking at Patriot ones at $28.99
Any input? Seems to have a tons of positive reviews

Has happened to me also. I really don't think their SD cards are worth messing with cause the risk of data loss is just one write away.

Bummer. Thankfully, this was just sitting in my Steam Deck with only re-downloadable games on it. All I lost was time buying a new card and downloading everything again.

Now I at least try to warn SDers to the likelyhood of failure and data loss and to overlook "free and good deal" with regards to MC SD cards.
Good luck.
