I once had an USB stick with a broken controller and couldn't partitioningit anymore. It was brand new, gets broken at the day when I used it thefirst time. It was warranted and I got another USB stick.

Perhaps your drive isn't broken, but one cannot rule out the possibilitythat it's defect.


I would test different USB slots and another, very short USB cable.

Ralf
