You can see your files, but you can’t delete or add anything.
Sometimes the controller gets stuck in an infinite boot loop trying to communicate with a dead NAND cell, causing it to overheat.
Under , ensure it matches what ChipGenius told you. Under Scan Mode , select "Low Level Format" for a deep fix.
If you’ve plugged in a USB flash drive only to find it unrecognized, or if you’ve gone digging into hardware IDs and found the strings or "FW FA04," you are likely dealing with a corrupted Alcor Micro controller.
If the drive burns your finger, software likely won't fix it. The controller or a capacitor has likely failed. Conclusion
