I need help formatting my 16gb sd card. Tried formatting it via cmd but im getting an "invalid media or Track 0 bad - disk unusable." Error. Is there any chance that i can fix the problem?

Hey there, Janoski.

Give it a try with its manufacturer's formatting tool (most SD card and flash drive manufacturers offer such tools for their devices). You could also try it with a different computer to see if the same thing happens.
Unfortunately it really sounds like it could have failed so if it's still under warranty you should try to RMA it.

Hope that helps.
