Sandisk Cruzer 4GB: I can't erase file

Mon, 27 Aug 2012 08:35:48 -0700

Hi, I purchased this unit at Office Depot and would like to use it fully as a Mac unit. However it came with a 6MB Windows file called U3 System. Normally I wouldn't care about the 6MB but every time I use the stick I have to separately eject this file. Its a nuisance I would like to be rid of but get info says I can only read the file. Anyone know how I can delete it? Ralph

I have tried to delete this thing every way I know. In get info its listed as a read only file. Ralph

Sandisk Cruzer 4GB: 2nd partition not booting/no drive designation--SOLVED

Mon, 03 Jun 2019 12:17:13 -0700

I installed (not live) a Linux O.S. onto the 2nd partition of this flashdrive. It won’t boot and there’s no “drive” letter designation.(in MSWin it should be F.G, etc in GParted it should be sdb2/sdc/2) When I go to either Win disk mgmt. or GParted, the area for changing/adding a drive letter is grayed out.. The second partition is active, primary and set to “boot”. First partition is active and primary. What I want to accomplish is assigning a drive letter so (I believe ??) the comp will recognize the second partition and then, boot up.

[SanDisk Cruzer Glide 3.0/256Gb 1st partition; 200Gb (aprox 126Gb used) active, primary 2nd partition; 33.5 Gb (LM 19.1 uses 8Gb) primary, active w/ flag set to boot.]

Sandisk Cruzer 4GB: Is this Flash Drive fixable?

Wed, 01 May 2019 04:19:53 -0700

I accidentally droped the laptop that this was plugged in to… the cover for it split and when we went to plug it back in, it wasn’t showing up on the computer. I feel like this can be fixed easily since the connection to the motherboard is still intact… It’s just not showing up on the laptop.
