How to restore a transcend flash drive?

Question

linux

After a system error (Ubuntu), it does not see the transcend flash drive, neither Windows nor LInux utilities see it (I did not see what kind of error, because the system crash followed the error).
created a topic http://forum.ubuntu.ru/index.php?topic=233545.0 , but never found a solution - the utilities do not see the transcend JetFlash 700 flash drive.
How can I restore it?

PS The information on it is not important.

Answer 1

Great site for flash drive recovery.
download the program to determine the PID & VID. According to these data, then on the same site you find a program to reflash the controller (or something there) in a flash drive.
and you can restore the information, for example, Ontrack easy recovery (if you see it)

Answer 2

And what's the point of messing around if the price of such a flash drive is about $ 13?

Added:
I'll clarify my answer a bit. Cheap flash drives are so unreliable in advance, so when buying them, you need to be prepared for the fact that they will break sooner or later.
And the more expensive ones have such problems much less often and they have a guarantee.

Answer 3

Try recuva , it worked for me.

Answer 4

The most interesting thing is that the banal Gparted helped me (although I use Kubuntu) (the MOST IMPORTANT THING - IN NO EVENT DO NOT USE THE KUBUNTA PARTISHEN-EDIT, OR AS IT CALLS THERE, AND EXACTLY GPARTED !!!) - just recreated the partition and formatted it. After that it works fine.
By the way, also Transcend.

Oh, sorry!
I didn't understand that it doesn't even appear in lsusb... Then my advice won't work... :(
Sorry again!
