How to crack open a Sandisk flash drive

I was just curious to know if anyone knows of a module fail-safe way to crack open the plastic packaging of these flash drives. It does not matter I've got 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB and 32 GB models. If you can show me how to open one of them I should be able to open the rest of them. I tried to use a precision screwdriver set you those that are very small but can always not the case to open. It is off warranty so no worries there.

Thank you

A new question.

I suggest a sharp chisel and faucets of light on the side of the case.  Another option could be a knife all-purpose Baden and faucets of light on the side of the case.  A hair dryer can soften the plastic but could also fire from inside.

  • How to transfer pictures from a flash drive on mac i

    don't know how to transfer pictures from a flash drive on mac i.

    Plug a flash drive on your mac.  Flash drive icon should appear on your desktop.  There are adapters for sd camera cards.

    You may be prompted to add pictures to the photo app.

    If not or you do not want to add photos to the app, you can double-click the flash drive icon. You may need to explore the folder where are the pictures.  Drag and drop the photos where ever you like.

  • How to transfer pictures from the flash drive for PC

    Uploading images to a flash drive

    a friend gave us a flash player that has pictures on it. I plugged it in and it turns on but I get nothing on my screen says thast there download or anything like that. How can I get my photos once they are uploaded?

    They don't automatically upload. In some versions of Windows, when you insert any type of removable drive (flash disk, CD, DVD, etc.) you will get a dialog box asking what you want to do with the content. I find it quite annoying, but, in this case, it would be useful, because then you can choose from various options that may include any software you have to display the photos.
     
    As this did not happen, press the Windows key + E to open Windows Explorer, click Folders in the menu to display the folders pane, then click the icon that represents the flash player. You should see (depending on your display options), a list of the icons or thumbnails of the photos. Try a double-click on one to see if some kind of viewer opens (for example, if you have a recent version of the installed office and they are JPEG files, they will probably open in Microsoft Office Picture Manager). If this isn't the case, right click on one and choose open with. You can have a few viable options listed; If this is not the case, click on choose program... and select a probable from the list in the dialog box that opens.
     
    Note that this will only display the photos; they are still on the flash drive. To copy them to your hard drive, you will need to drag them from the flash drive into a folder on your hard drive.
  • How will I know if my flash drive has backed up all my data?

    Just bought a flash drive.  I figured out how to run a backup on the flash drive.  But how do I know if the flash player now has my files?  And which files actually need.  How to restore files should I have to?

    These questions can be answered by checking the help files or documentation for your backup program.  If you have used Windows backup as your backup, open help and Support and check the documentation for backup Windows.

  • Problem opening of my flash drive in windows 7

    Hello everyone! I plugged a dive flash to my computer and then my antivirus (Bitdefender) says it has virus (horse of Trojan and malware) and told me that they should be deleted and after the scan is complete, whenever I try to open my drive (USB) flash, I see a shortcut (size of 1 KB) and when I try to open it shows this message (there was a problem starting pvd3z8... (a lot of weird things)-the specified module could not be found. :(:(veuillez s'il vous plaît aider.)

    Hello!

    I suggest you to format the flash drive using HP Format reader tool.

    Most likely your USB has on him a virus that starts with AutoRun, so you're very very likely to infect your computer, if you perform the following steps to manually remove the virus from the key.

    I had a case on a PC with a virus VBS (Visual Basic Script) who himself reinstalled in the computer every time a letter assigned to the USB and every time you have double-clicked on USB key in 'computer '.

    To manually remove the virus from the stick:

    1. go in disk management and assign a letter on the pendrive

    Start--> Diskmgmt.msc; in management of drives, right click on the USB drive and select 'Change drive letter and paths', click 'Add', assign the following drive letter... Ok

    2. open administrator command prompt

    Start-> Accessories-> right-click "Command Prompt" and select "Run as Administrator"

    3. navigate to the USB, identify the strange hidden files and delete them

    CD d:\ (if d: is the letter of the USB drive)

    Dir /ah-> for show hidden files

    attrib - a-s-h - r-> to view the files

    del autorun.inf

    del file1

    del File2

    where File1, File2 is the names of suspicious files which are hidden files before. You can use the TAB key after led to select files easier.

  • How do I change my USB Flash drive from a hard drive to a removable disk

    Been having a lot of problems with my laptop lately, then I'm just trying to move some basic data (music, photos, etc.) my laptop on my desk. When I initially plugged my Flash drive (brand new, no problems with it, was sold yesterday. 16 GB) on my laptop, it installed the drivers successfully but no it has not assigned a drive letter. After going to management records and trying to assign it a letter, he would enter an error code. So I grew up diskpart.exe and assigned a drive letter that elsewhere, BUT, for some reason, he now thinks it's a partitioned hard disk drive and I can't eject it (and therefore, it will not save anything when I unplug it).

    When I plug the drive in my desktop, everything works perfectly fine. He acknowledges as a drive Removable and all. I even formatted it on my desktop (with 'quick format' unchecked) yet when I plug in my laptop, it has the same files on it as before when it was plugged into my laptop.

    To plug into my office and loading upward from diskpart, after typing the volume from the list and pressing on enter, I have noticed that my office it lists as "Removable" type (when I do this on my laptop, it lists as "Score" type) so how can I change to a removable drive?
    EDIT: Looking in the "Disk management" folder in "Computer management", it shows my flash drive in the framework of the "disk 0" and my C drive and it lists as "Primary Partitions.
    Below, under "Disk 1" it shows my removable disk, but when I right click it, and then click on "Change Drive Letter and paths...". «it comes up with an error stating ' operation failed to complete because the disk management console view is not updated.» Refresh the view by using the refresh task. If the problem persists, close the disk management console, then restart disk management or restart the computer. »
    (I updated using the update task, I close the restart disk management console, as well as restarted my computer.) Nothing works)
    The most frustrating thing is that I have a small 1 GB flash drive and it works completely and perfectly fine on my laptop.

    The answer this question (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-performance/error-disk-management-console-view-is-not-up-to/e96ccbf9-0f6e-40ce-999f-4da4e05d7704) actually solved my problem. Thanks for your time though!

  • The request cannot be performed because of the I/o device error when opening a USB flash drive

    Original title: USB Flash Drive issues

    So, I tried to open my flash drive on my Dell Inspiron 15 with Windows 8 today to make an assignment. But for some reason some it does not open. This is what appears when I try to open it. I've done many things that are supposed to solve the problem with the ports themselves, but nothing seems to work that makes me think that it is the actual flash player. I don't know what to do all that my University materials are there then I really need to work, or at least find a way to get at least most of my files. Thank you very much for the help in advance.

    Sorry for the late reply Jose. I appreciate your efforts to resolve the issue.

    This can occur because of one or more of the reasons below:
    1. the currently loaded USB driver has become corrupt or unstable.
    2. your PC requires an update for problems that could conflict with a key USB and Windows.
    3. Windows may miss other problems hardware or software updates.
    4. your USB controllers may have become unstable or corrupt.

    Check the disc on another computer flash memory to ensure that the issue is not with the device.

    You can try the methods below:
    Method 1: Uninstall, then reconnect the USB flash drive:
    This method solves the problems where the currently loaded USB driver has become corrupt or unstable.
    1. go in search for, type device manager in the search box
    2. click on Device Manager in the returned list.
    3. click on disk in the list of hardware drives
    4. right click on the USB with the question and click on uninstall.
    5. once the flash player is uninstalled, unplug it.
    6. wait 1 minute and then reconnect the USB flash drive. The driver should load automatically.
    7. look for the USB key in Windows Explorer

    Method 2: Reinstall the USB controllers.
    This method addresses the steps where the USB driver currently loaded became unstable or corrupted.
    1. click on start, type device manager in the start search box, and then click Device Manager.
    2. expand Bus USB controllers. Right click on a device, and then click on uninstall. Repeat for each device.
    3. Once complete, restart your computer. Your USB controllers will automatically install.

    I hope this helps to solve the issue. If you still have the same problem, get back to us.
