  • How to regain your usb drive

    Hi, as seen recently i had RAM issues so i happily used your software to discover my issues. Now i would like to reuse my USB drive as normal but can't figure out how to regain my drive in normal state. I'm stuck with a 49Mb partition i can format, a 99Mb EFI system partition wich i can't edit/delete and 7.12Gb unallocated wich i cant assigne a new volume to.

    Any help would be kindly appreciated

    Kind regards
    Kevin

        By the way it take 27mins to zero my USB stick, is that normal ?? MiniTool Partition take less than 5 mins to do the same thing

          Partitioning and wiping a drive are not the same thing.
          To create a partition you only need to to write 1 disk sector. It should take less than a second.
          Wiping the whole drive with zeros means writing to every sector on the drive. Which will take much longer.
