May 1, 20215 yr So this happened now: I pulled the USB stick out and put it in my windows machine. Windows prompted to "fix" the drive. I selected No and continued anyway and saw all the files. I copied all the files to my hard drive on my windows box. I then unplugged the USB stick and put it back in, this time prompting Windows to "fix" the problem. Windows says no errors found, and I can still see all the files on the drive. But when I plug it into my Unraid server I still get this Flash device error message. Is my USB drive really dead? Its only 3 months old. I didn't think it could die this fast.

May 1, 20215 yr Author I was scared to reboot as all my services were still running. I did just now tho and it booted up and everything is fine now. Should I be worried here and transfer over to a new stick? I do have a datatraveller 100 which according to spaceinvaderones video, was the crapiest stick he tested.
May 1, 20215 yr As you found out, once the stick is disconnected, you must reboot to get it reconnected, and it will trigger a parity check because the shutdown can't be properly recorded on the stick. Just keep regular backups of the USB stick, I wouldn't transfer just yet,
