Melted in my laptop, shorted out my GoPro.
My GoPro said "SD ERROR" and kept shutting down, so took the card out of my GoPro, and put it into SanDisk's adapter, and inserted it into my laptop to try to format it.
Suddenly curls of smoke rose from my laptop's SD card port and I smelled burning plastic, so I pulled the card out, and found this. It was super hot, and there's a possibility it might have caught fire if I'd left it in the laptop for longer.
The other three work fine in both the GoPro and the Laptop: they haven't melted yet, but now I'm concerned.
I've attached a picture of the melted card, because "pics or it didn't happen". Well, it happened, and there's the result.
