I can't even format the SDCard.
It is either "Formatting Failed" or "Your card should have at least one formatted partition".

"Sorry at kleast one partition on your external storage device could not be mounted" error.

I couldn't repro this in the manner specified, but I do have an SD card reader that doesn't show the SD card icon when a card is inserted. It shows a generic USB device icon.

The reason it does this is because the decision whether to show an SD card icon is made by checking the USB device's ID (built-in SD card readers are USB mass storage devices) against a static list (https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform2/+/HEAD/cros-disks/usb-device-info). That list hasn't been updated since March 2016.
