Re: USB memory stick not accessible

Hi hughdrever!

What height did you drop it? Most of the USB flash drive are rather strong enough and should be still usable even after drop from 5m height. Did you get any message at all when you insert the USB flash drive to computer?

Re: USB memory stick not accessible

Hello. Thanks for your reply.
It was only dropped from waist height and there was no message when it was plugged in. The USB port is working as I have checked with another stick.
