How about this one. If I formatted a Centon DataStickPro 8GB like my pc asked me to, and now although I can still see it in "mycomputer" but every time I try to access it now it says it needs to be formatted but the formatting never completes and locks up, what can be done??
.
.
.Also in it's properties it says disc is working fine, but it shows 0% available/used.
my dad occasioanlly uses our desk top computer to play card games which our installed on our computer, and to read the electronic version of our local newspaper.
I used to have a 1GB noname flash drive. I put it through the wash by accident, but after I let it dry for a day, it worked fine (the sauter for the USB connection started to come off (whoops), and I kicked it when it was plugged in to my computer (again, whoops), and it still worked. Until I tried to format it with OS X. That's when it went kaput. Now (I just bought it today) I have a Staples brand 2GB "Relay" flash drive. $17 CAD. Woohoo!
I have a problem with a USB Flash Drive I bought on eBay. It came from Hong Kong and is 16 GB. It puts movies and some pictures jus fine,but when I try to put in Micrsft docs and other files, the file becomes corrupted, I cant open the file, and around the file appear many other files that came out of nowhere. These files have special chars as their name and when I attempt to delete them, it wont let me.any1 kno the problem w/ my drive???
Probably a drive tricked into thinking it is 16gb.Thats why u got corruptfiles.When the flash drive writes it thinks it got sapce left when it doesn't so it writes anyway
My advice, bin that flash drive, and go to a shop and buy one, you can get them cheap these days. And a good tip for the future, never buy any kind of computers and technology from China, usually they are crappy imitations of proper fully working products.
lol i saw them talking about usb drive capacities at bottom, lol my uncles friend went to Japan a little while ago and while there found this 100gig usb flash drive for 7 bucks, they don't sell in the US but i think my Uncle said they would sell somewhere around 500 bucks
U3 is a program that allows you to install everyday programs like firefox, antivirus softwares, openoffice, and etc. It also makes the flash drive interface much easier.
some people are scared by new technologies. Others like them. I'm the latter. I totally love U3. It is so nice to have weatherbug and firefox with me wherever.
Also, I congratulate you on being the first person I have talked to in a comment box on Youtube all day who was not immature, insecure or trying to make me look bad in some way (seriously, I said one game sucked and the guy then all of a sudden kept saying I sucked at it simply because I thought the game was crap).
I've got one of the smallest USB sticks out there, and its not even a flashdrive itself. Its the Kingston USB Micro SD Reader. Put a microSD in (I use a 2 GB one) and its a Flashdrive the size of a little over twice the USB connector's size.
And yes, with the connector I mean just the bit that disappears inside your machine, this thing is a little over twice _that_ size.
I personally like U3 the software can be annoying @ times but the Autoplay feature is great. I think Portable App's suite is better but you can't auto run it.
I've never gotten a flash drive with U3 on it and it sounds like an annoyance if one doesn't want it. I recently bought a 8gb flash drive for use as a ready boost for Vista 64-bit and it turns out that Vista only recognizes 4gb in addition to the 4gb of installed memory. The biggest flash drives that I've seen are 64gb and they go for like $3500 while the 32gb ones start around $100.
Google 64gb flash drive and you can see I meant $3500. I did a little research and they do sell them for $350. Maybe I jumped the gun a little but they are selling them for 3 grand too. So there must be people spending that much I would assume. It does seem crazy the most expensive one is like $4600.
Have you ever heard of Portable Apps Suite. If you haven't it's basically software that has a GUI that looks like a Start Menu. From here you can open the root of the flash drive to browse files. You can also launch portable apps from the software.
U3 is basically that. It also has another feature. Since you can not use autoplay from USB devices in windows. The flash drive is partitioned into two parts one of the parts is tricked to be seen as a optical disc. This way you can run autoplay so the U3 software is ran automatically.

U3 creates a separate partition that Windows can't format.
