Im having a hard time transferring data from and to my Data Traveller. It often crashes and gives out an error saying the specified source/destination is not found or so. Then it will no longer be displayed in my computer and its properties box would show 0 capacity. Its almost as if it physically detaches itself from my computer. XD
Please help. Thanks

This is what usually happens while the files are being copied. Then it freezes and gives out this error.
When i click on refresh. All the data are not displayed and the properties dialog box shows the drive has 0 capacity. This prompts me to reinsert the drive and redo.

- I've already tried it on several computers when i was troubleshooting. The same problem comes up everytime.
The customer support at Kingston told me to update my firmware but the links are broken atm. I will inform you if their solution works.
Thanks.
I can offer a suggestion or two. In order to tell if the problem is the flash drive or the computer, try attaching it to a different computer, and test it with similar file transfers.
If it behaves the same, then it is probably faulty. There's only a slight chance that running a Check Disk on it will improve things. (in My Computer, Right-Click on the flash drive, then click on Properties, then the Tools tab, then the Check Now button).
If it seems fine on a different computer, then try attaching it to your own computer on different USB ports. In particular, do not attach to a USB hub, but directly to a front or back port. If you are successful in finding a good port, then consider the previously used USB port to be faulty.

How to remove the write protection in drive on Volume/Devices/Hard disk/DC6 I need some help.. I cannot write or move files on My Kingstone 4GB Data traveler. The message notification says it is write protected and ask to remove the write protection. Unfortunately, I don't know where to find the write protection or where to start to remove the write protection.
