    Reputation in data storage is hard to make and easy to destroy. SanDisk not only made a defective product, but has since shown that they are not standing behind their products. I have bought SanDisk in the past, but their reputation is now destroyed for me.

    I work in data storage, but not for a hardware manufacturer nor for any of the involved parties.
