Having a bootable Linux on flash drive is very handly tool for a web developer. When I was about to create one, my TDK 16GB flash drive becomes inaccessible in my Windows 7 file explorer. The Windows explorer detected it and shows "Removable drive (H:)". When I clicked the drive, it prompted me to insert a disk in Drive H: as if it were acting as a CD or DVD drive. I checked it on my "Device Manager" and found my flash drive registered as "USB Disk 30X USB Device". I tried some known fix: uninstalled/re-installed the drive's device driver, re-assigned new Drive letter and nothing worked. I thought of giving it a low level format and in this article will show how to do it.

Check with ChipGenius if you have a similar device as shown in the screenshot below. The VID should definitely be 13FE, but if your PID is slightly different (4100, 4200) that should still be okay. Make a note of the serial number! You need to use the information here later in the USB Parameters section of UPTool. The controller should definitely be by Phison, the UPTool program is made for Phison controllers only. 2ff7e9595c
