Are your SD cards aftermarket or from some ebay vendors? I bought a bad SD card from ebay that was "too good to be true" and found out why the price was so low. I then bought a legit SD card and it works fine.

Does your original SD card get corrupt too?

My original was corrupted. It was unable to be read, formatted, or even recognized by my computer via the phone or my external minisdhc card reader. I went to the local Sprint store and they gave me a Sandisk card as a replacement. I did have a mishap with that card and it needed to be formatted and I lost all of my data. Since then, it has had no issue. The good thing with Sandisk is that they are guaranteed for life. I don't know why it happened. I do suggest to always backup your card to a folder on your hard drive. It's only a max of 16GB (unless you invested crazy money in a 32GB card) so, it doesn't take very long.

When I can' get my computer or phone to recognize the card, I pop it in my camera an format it. Never had that method fail.

I can't mount the card through the phone anymore, I can list the root dir half of the time and the rest is as if it isn't there. When I mount it directly through the computer there is no issue. Might be a different thread somewhere for this.
