Unhappy Dead Flash Drive, Need Help!

I know that Nerdz had a similar problem with a flash drive before http://www.forumapex.com/other_hardw...lashdrive.html I'm having a similar problem only I'm desperate to get the data off of it. Is there any chance of salvaging it?

Good to see you guys again, btw!

what have you done to troubleshoot the drive?

have you tried a diffrent system?

Check disk management to see if it shows there?

Does your pc see it ? look in - control panel / preformance and maintaince / administrative tools / computer managment / storage / disk managment

If it see's it then you can recover your data- You'll need some sort of data recovery program from ???? I use Acronis, R-Studio , Spin Rite they all work good , but R-Studios is the best I've used so far

Its also possible , with R-Studios software, to recover he data even if you pc doesnt see the drive as long as the usb drive powers up because R-Studio software can still detect it

If you get the R-Studios software and need help using it , just post up and I'll walk ( or inthis case type ) you through it

Oh and welcome back to PCApex

No, I've tried it on multiple systems and it doesn't show up in disk management. Goes to show you: ALWAYSY back up your data.
