Care: To ensure longevity and data integrity:
- Avoid exposing the card to extreme magnetic fields.
- Handle the card by its edges to prevent touching the gold contacts.
- Clean contacts with a dry, lint-free cloth if necessary.
- Always use the write protection switch to lock the card before removing it from a device, especially when it's full or contains critical data.
- Store the card in a cool, dry place when not in use.
- Safely eject the card from your device before removing it physically.
