It's better to remove all copied pictures from your cell phone, not from PC (it's true also for all kinfs of digital cameras). <br />
Otherwise your SD3 card may become unrecognised on your phone.

How to remove write protection from SD3 card

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
