If corruption is detected it is made read-only to prevent further damage. Use checkdisk, or scandisk in a windows PC to fix. Joe L.

September 30, 201213 yr Lifesaver, thanks. Was getting read only filesystem and weird errors, windows checkdisk on the flash drive sorted it all out - phew
June 24, 201511 yr I'm having this same exact issue, running unraid v 5.0.5. How are you running windows chkdsk on the unraid server? are you removing the usb drive and plugging into a windows computer to run? Are there other options from either the unraid console (logged in as root) or perhaps from Mac? Thanks for any and all help!
