• Supports the ReadyBoost™ function of Windows Vista™
• Write Speed: up to 3.9 MBytes/s

• Large storage capacity
• award-winning premium quality
• 5 years warranty

Which of specifications are written as above.
After I bought this product I used it to save some documents which includes some very important documents for my studies.
Now I have trouble with the product and can not get my documents.
The product cant not response when I plug in to computer.

I tried Toshiba USB Flash Drive some other computers also but it cant response in any case.

Hi

Usually if the HDD would start to malfunction then the data on this HDD are not more accessible and in most cases you cannot backup this data to any other place.

Of course there are many specialists and companies who could retrieve and could save the data from damage HDDs but this is very expensive procedure and don’t think it’s worth to spend a lot money for private data..

However, you can get in contact with an local ASP (Toshiba authorized service partner) if your Toshiba product start to malfunction and is covered by warranty..

It is not known to me that you can use some “trick” and force USB stick to be readable.
Either it works or not.
I have several USB sticks with different capacity and until now I didn’t have such problems.

Try to call nearest Toshiba service and ask for help. Maybe they have some diagnostic tools and will be able to access saved documents. You should also ask for replacement.
