Scorpus Veteran Posted September 8, 2011 Veteran Share Posted September 8, 2011 So I received my supposedly "indestructible" SD cards today in the post. I'm going to be posting up a video review showing ways that I will be testing the strength of the cards. However I need you guys to come up with some cool ideas for things I should do to try and destroy them. Any ideas are welcome and will be considered but ridiculous ones will obviously not be attempted. Note: I almost forgot, they are Samsung microSD cards rated as "waterproof, shockproof and magnet-proof" Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1023876-indestructible-sd-cards-help-me-destroy-them/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorpus Veteran Posted September 8, 2011 Author Veteran Share Posted September 8, 2011 Microwave :) Drive over them? Boil them in water? They're metallic-cased as far as I can tell so unfortunately microwaving them would be dangerous I will definitely be boiling them up though, great suggestion And I will attempt burning them using the sun but it hasn't been all that sunny here recently Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1023876-indestructible-sd-cards-help-me-destroy-them/#findComment-594292210 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standing on it Driving over it Dropping from a height Forget the exciting awesome ways, start with the basics and move from there. Already thought of doing that. Also, please keep in mind that I only have one of these to test with (I have a second one but that's for a giveaway). So I need to keep the super-destructive stuff until last Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1023876-indestructible-sd-cards-help-me-destroy-them/#findComment-594292252 Share on other sites More sharing options...
