[Manshahia]

i m having a 1 Gb transcend pen drive....
Today when i inserted it it showed its capacity as 3.23 GB ..
wat happened to it??

 

[xbonez]

how much data does it take?? i 1gb, then don't bother, if 3.23 GB, then jump with joy

try formatting it again . or was it just a glitch ? i.e.. did it show as 1gb when u re-inserted it ?

Tell us the procedure so that we can make our 2gb pen drive into 4.7 gb.
LOL.

Did you format it with NTFS with compression and add data to it?

If not, the drive needs to be reformatted as this happens only when data gets corrupted. I have had such problems with faulty flash memory cards
(once a 256 mb card was showing 1gig. It died soon after. RIP :'((
:sniff: It cost me 2k back then)

its in warranty... and i think they will replace it..
