I'd suspect the SD card first, is it possible to test another SD card (preferably of a known and reputable brand)?

I still suspect this SD card, if it worked after a format then stopped working then it might be a defective unit.

If you have access to a PC with a card reader i recommend that you test this SD card using a test software like h2testw. This software can write a known pattern to the card and then reads it back to check if the SD card stores data properly.
