Good morning I have a MEMOREX MEGA TRAVELDRIV 8GIG USB MEMORY FLASH DRIVE The problem is that I did not use the flexible connector and broke the end off the drive. I can solder the ends back but there is no wiring diagram available, I need a 4 color code for connecting to the USB end. Any help appreciated Thank you

    Hello
    Thank you again for your help.
    I did connect the wires together but nothing happened, so I may think that the drive is damaged also.
    But thank you for your helpanyway
    Kind regards

    Hey Chob!

    I'm afraid I couldn't find a specific USB diagram for your model, but I believe it goes like this:

    1 - Red +5v (power)
    2 - Blue Data -
    3 - Green Data +
    4 - Copper Ground

    To be sure, I recommend you using a multimeter to check the wiring!

    Regards,
    Pelu.

My Memorex USB flash drive is write protected

t seems that your flash drive has some bad sectors since normally that's the error message you get when that happens, try to format your drive under disk management.
Note: your files will be erased if you format your flash drive.
If formatting your flash drive does not solve your problem I will advise you to contact Memorex technical support for better assistance, you can contact them at 1-877-363-6673

Travel Drive Broke

It depends on your skill level as to if it can be fixed or not. The data is most likely still safely stored on the flash chip inside the drive casing. However, the USB connector has been just ripped off. If you have any experience soldering it would be as simple as getting a replacement usb plug from an electronics store or cutting a cable you have and then soldering the USB connector back to the flash drive inside the casing. This is something than can be done at home or possible by a repair shop that does any type of soldering work(tv, radios, ect) Most computer repair shops will look at you silly if you ask them to solder a thumb drive back to life. I would not expect more than to be able to mount your drive and copy the data. Odds are after you cut it out of the casing it will never go back in correctly.

Good Luck

Memores 4G Mega Traveldrive doesn't read

Step one is try it on another computer. This will seperate issues....is it the drive or the USB port (hardware or software actully in both cases are possible.
Step two, if it works elsewhere, is to check under device manager, and reinstall the driver (if not embedded in the drive which most are)....both USB and the disk.
Step three is to download (again assuming it did not work) the disk diagnostics from Memorex (most drive manufacturers have a host of utilities and they may exist even for flash drives - they use them internal to their mfg operations as well). Check to see if it's good. It is possible that it just lost the embedded driver by the way in which case you need to put it back on the drive...haven't done that but assume it's possible and available.

Can give you more "stuff" to do but this will probably solve the problem....and I am guessing it died. If it did they are not expensive...and even cheaper if you really don't need 4 gb...few people do for personal and even work data.
Check at pricewatch.com (not a seller) for pricing. This site is used by GEEKS United for finding "stuff".

This gives you some options.....Tango

Laptop fell onto floor...now my memorex travel drive is broken...all college papers lost...help

This is actually fairly common, if the laptop still works with the broken USB socket you can take the cheap approach which is just don't use that port. If you need more ports a USB hub is pretty inexpensive.
