Here's how it works: Anybody can ask a question Anybody can answer The best answers are voted up and rise to the top How to format/repair a write-protected USB drive with I/O errors? up vote 9 down vote favorite 9 diskpart clean i/o device error I ordered a bunch of 1GB usb drives from a semi-shady Chinese company. Most of them work just fine, but a couple of them won't let me format them because they are "write-protected." There is no write protection switch on the device. I have exhaustively tried the following: Windows format: "The disk is write protected" HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool: "Device media is write-protected" Changing registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies to 0 diskpart clear attributes readonly diskpart clean: "Diskpart has diskpart has encountered an error data error (cyclic redundancy check) encountered an error: The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error. See the System Event Log for more information." (The System Event Log only contains the error: The IO operation at logical block address 0 for Disk 1 was retried.) HDD Low Level Format Tool: "Format Error occurred at offset 985,595,904: 1117 - Device I/O error" and hundreds of similar errors Sacrificing a lamb to the USB gods Starting in safe mode with command prompt and running format, diskpart, and chkdsk So do all these I/O device errors mean that these USB drives are just totally screwed? Is there any way to get more information about the problem? hard-drive usb usb-flash-drive format share|improve this question edited Dec 17 '13 at 6:48 asked Dec 17 '13 at 6:36 Agargara 46113 Throw them away, they are crap. You can get 1GB USB stick at Amazon USA already for around or below US$ 2. (Naming that tool "HDD Low Level Formatting Tool" made me chuckle a bit, the developers of that tool surely have a sense of humor ;) –elgonzo Dec 17 '13 at 6:46 The joke being that there's really no such thing as a low level format anymore? Anyway, I would just buy more but they have a custom logo. –Agargara Dec 17 '13 at 6:50 Yes, especially there is no such thing as LLF for flash-based stor

When starting the laptop it says "missing operating system". I put it into an external USB box, connected to another pc, windows shows the device among the USB devices, but it http://www.techspot.com/community/topics/i-o-error-1117.113915/ does not show it under my computer or disk management. I tried already at least 30 different recovery utilities, none of them could find any partition or any file on it, altough they are able to show the disk configuration (number of sectors, size, etc.). Some of them gave the I/O error (1117). I tried also to mount the disk under Linux, no success. Latest temptative was to start the laptop with a DOS cd to run the DOS version of unerase, but it failed too. It simply says that the space under the disk is "unallocated" and that it can read any partition or file. What else can I try before taking it to those very expensive recovery companies? The file system should be NTFS, there was WIN XP Home installed. Regards, D.

For formatting it I downloaded a free version of the software low level format tool 4.25. When I started the formatting process, the Samsung drive started giving me some errors at the beginning and some half way through. The screenshot of the error is attached below: The error reads as: Format Error occurred at offset 1,675,558,912: 1117-Device 1/0 error Format Error occurred at offset 1,677,656,064: 1117-Device 1/0 error Format Error occurred at offset 1,679,753,216: 1117-Device 1/0 error Format Error occurred at offset 1,681,850,368: 1117-Device 1/0 error Format Error occurred at offset 1,683,947,520: 1117-Device 1/0 error Format Error occurred at offset 1,686,044,672: 1117-Device 1/0 error Can anyone please guide me how to resolve the error?
