Also, I want to ask you about...

I planning to return the 128GB sd card which still has warranty.

The sd card was turned RAW after formatting it using windows with unmark quick format.

Now, my question is, will they be able to repair the card (e.g. retrieving the file system and all files on it?)

Or is the file system will never be repaired and all data files will never be recovered after the sd card turned RAW?

Please ask your manufacturer.
