I have been trying to use usb drives lately. One a usb 500 gb ssd drive
for backing up and one a 64 gb micro sd card for use in an Android
tablet, and I have borked both of them. Total value £36 so not a
disaster. But I can't find a way to reformat them in spite of extensive
googling and that is extremely annoying. There must be some way of
forcing a basic format of these drives. Gparted won't touch them, msusb
does nothing and various command line methods have done nothing. A lot
of methods concentrate on getting data back but I don't want to do that.
I just want them in a state to get data onto them. Any ideas anybody?
George
