Long shot...

I have an SD card belonging to a friend, with the last photos she has of her late husband. Unfortunately it seems to have a hairline fracture. Very occasionally I can get as USB reader to recognise the card and the first 4K block, but it's usually dead as a door nail. I'm sure an expensive lab could recover it, but that's well out of reach. Any sane ideas welcome.

@realcainmosni sd cards have 2 different methods of interacting (sdio and spi), devices will use sdio but it’s possible that the slower spi might manage to recover a damaged drive. Check out https://hackaday.com/2013/08/19/rescuing-an-sd-card-with-an-arduino/
