Samsung EVO microSD Recovery: Chennai Researcher’s Wildlife Study Images Saved
Case Overview :
Dr. Kartik Murthy, an esteemed wildlife researcher in Chennai, experienced a devastating data loss when his camera’s Samsung EVO microSD card abruptly stopped working during a critical jungle expedition, risking loss of rare animal movement photos and field notes.
- Brand: Samsung
- Storage Device: EVO microSD Card
- Model Number: MB-MC128GA
- Capacity: 128GB
- Data Recovered: 119GB
- Good Files: 3,340
- Bad Files: 91
- Success Rate: 97%
Problem Description
Following prolonged exposure to humid and challenging terrain, the card showed errors on insertion (“card not detected”) and the camera failed to read or format the microSD card. Losing these study images would mean losing irreplaceable research evidence and potential publication content.
Understanding the Challenge
The card’s controller chipset malfunctioned under field wear conditions, causing scrambled flash translation layers and fragmented file clusters. Physical wear in NAND flash cells was marginal but critical for certain image blocks.
Data Recovery
Using proprietary microSD interfaces, engineers performed a sector-level memory dump bypassing the controller. File recovery software employed pattern-based reconstruction to assemble fragmented JPEG and RAW photos, filling data gaps where possible and retaining sequence and metadata integrity essential for research.
Outcome of Data Retrieval
Most files, approximately 119GB of images and videos, were recovered with negligible loss, preserving Dr. Murthy’s research continuity and enabling the completion of his wildlife study documentation.
Conclusion:
In research, lost evidence can stall breakthrough discoveries. DataCare Labs ensures your precious fieldwork is preserved for the future.
