5. Sorun Giderme

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your C175 ECO USB Flash Drive.

5.1 The USB disk is correctly detected by the PC, but it is not displayed in My Computer/Finder.

This issue often occurs if the USB disk and another drive (e.g., a network drive) are assigned the same drive letter. To resolve this:

• Pencereler:
  1. Right-click on "This PC" (or "My Computer") and select "Manage."
  2. In the Computer Management window, select "Disk Management" under "Storage."
  3. Locate your USB disk (it might appear as "Removable Disk" or similar). Right-click on it and select "Change Drive Letter and Paths..."
  4. Click "Change..." and choose an available drive letter that is not in use. Click "OK" to apply the change.
• MacOS: If the drive is detected but not appearing, try restarting your Mac or checking Disk Utility to see if it's listed there and can be mounted.

5.2 Why is the capacity of USB drives displayed on the computer always lower than the actual capacity?

This is a common phenomenon due to the difference in how hardware manufacturers and software providers (like operating systems) calculate storage capacity. Hardware manufacturers define 1 Kilobyte (KB) as 1000 bytes, while software systems define 1 KB as 1024 bytes (binary calculation). Additionally, a small percentage (typically 3-5%) of the drive's capacity is reserved by the manufacturer for firmware, application software, and data storage maintenance. This results in the displayed capacity being slightly lower than the advertised capacity.

5.3 Drive is not recognized or frequently disconnects.

• Farklı Bir USB Portunu Deneyin: The issue might be with the USB port on your computer. Try plugging the drive into another port.
