Similar thing happened to me a while ago. Only thing I could do was format the drive :-\

go buy another usb drive thats the same model and what not....open up the old one solder out the biggest chip in it and put it in the new one....but i would first try the sofware trick mentioned above ....try putting it in the freezer for 4 a couple of hours, i heard of this trick working on desktop hard drives but both use different ways to store/write/read info but it wouldn't hurt to try......anyhow if you could reformat it and get it to be reusable would you want to?

Most people are not capable or doing that with such tiny surface mount chips. Incredibly hard to do.
