The data is of no value and I ordered five more from Newegg, 16 GB 
class10 on sale.

But I only have two and the other one is 64GB and I don't want to risk 
it, and they tak forever to erase, the 16 takes about 23 minutes with 
what is advertised as a fast USB3 reader.
My daughter decided it was hopeless and has already started a Sandisk 
claim in my name.

Problem is it stops what I was doing!

Aargh!
