USB dead twice in two weeks

Featured Replies

Looks like my brand new USB drive had failed.  bzroot checksum fail on reboot.

 

My USB drive failed after 10-12 years a couple weeks ago.  The one I brought back up is literally brand new.  And I think I ended up with a different/new key?  Said it was a one-time thing when I logged in to do the recovery?  Am I going to have to buy a new key?

 

What can nuke a USB drive twice in a week?  What can nuke a brand new USB drive?

Power supply.  Motherboard.  Or just dumb luck.

 

Could just be a coincidence.  10+ years of always on use from a flash drive is a solid run.  That the second drive died in a couple of weeks could be a bad drive, a counterfeit drive, or something else.
