My microSD dismounts itself

[Android Central Question]

Hi everyone! I recently bought a new Laptop (HP stream) and since I use it mostly for writing and watching tv series I wasn't concerned about the fact it has 32gb storage. However just to be safe I ordered a microSD (512gb). At first it worked perfectly, not a problem whatsoever. Now all of a sudden it started dismounting itself. I already tried formatting it and scanned it and everything. It keeps going like that, to the point where I'm trying to put some files on it and whenever it interrupts I eject it from the slot and put it back in (manually because it disappears from the Access) it says I have to format it to be able to use it again. It's kinda driving me crazy, so any suggestions is more than welcome.. thanks

That can be either a hardware problem (bad slot) or a software problem. If you can't diagnose it yourself, you'll have to bring it to a repair shop.
