USB F Drive has 0 bytes of media?

Updated: 11/5/2022

My usb is a Tobisha 64GB Transmemory MX black drive. Last September-ish I had a password software put onto it and it was working as a regular usb up 'til now. The irregular change happened when I took the usb to another computer to print something. When I did that I wasn't prompted with a password and the USB was still working. The USB was still working when I took it back to my computer, but a couple days went by and I noticed that the usb f just displayed F: and didn't display the memory like windows explorer does for the other drives. What's happening and how to fix?

I suggest you to Run check disk (chkdsk) and check if it helps.

Follow the below steps:

Step 1:Press Windows + X keys on the keyboard, click Command Prompt (Admin).

Step 2: In the Command Prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

chkdsk / f

chkdsk /r

Step 3: You may be asked whether to schedule this volume to be checked next time when you restarts (Y/N).

Step 4: Press Y key on the keyboard and press Enter key.

Step 5: Restart the computer and check.

If you encounter any data loss issues while trying to fix the issue, you could use Bitwar Data Recovery to bring those files back:

Step 1: Download Bitwar Data Recovery from our official website.

Step 2: After installing the software, launch it and choose the USB that shows 0 bytes, followed by pressing the Next button.

Step 3: Now, you should choose a scan mode in this stage. You could select Quick Scan, which is capable of retrieving most of the lost files. If it doesn't work, then you could come back to this stage and then select Deep Scan.

Step 4: After this, select the file types you want to recover then press the Next button.

Step 5: At the end, preview data and press the Recover.

Does the Photoshare7D have its own internal memory?

No, it does not. You probably ask because you see two drives appear when you connect the USB cable to it. However, if you notice, the one drive has 0 bytes, and the other drive, which is your memory card, has the number of bytes that is the capacity of your memory card (my memory card is an SD 2GB card and therefore shows 2 billion bytes).

How are disk drives identified by a computer is it by numbers letters symbols or bytes?

The answer depends on what level you are talking about and what kind of computer you are talking about. A standard PC running a Microsoft Windows OS is going to identify the physical drives by numbers, starting with "drive 0". The physical drives can then be broken into virtual drives and assigned drive letters. You will usually be using letters to work with the drives. Bytes are the units that measure the capacity of the drive, so the bytes are not really used to identify the drive.

How do you measure storage or memory size in computers?

There are three types of memory, video, storage and RAM. Storage memory is on your hard drive and is used to store everything that's software or virtual on your computer, such as programs, files, settings, etc. If it's part of your computer and you can't throw it out of the window, it's software. If you throw it out of the window and it comes back, it's a cat. Anyways, video memory is memory that is set aside specifically for usage by your video card or onboard video (this doesn't take any away from your RAM or hard drive). It functions much like RAM. Finally, RAM acts as a scratchpad for your computer, keeping track of everything that's not "finalized" or saved on your hard drive (everything in RAM, by the way, is lost when your computer is turned off). All three are seperate, distinct types of memory, but they are all measured in bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, and gigabytes, or even terabytes! Bytes are the smallest unit of memory. Kilobytes are roughly equivalent to one thousand bytes, about enough to hold one page of typed text. Megabytes are the next biggest amount and, you guessed it, are about equal to one thousand kilobytes. Gigabytes follow in the same fashion (they hold A LOT of information), and so do terabytes. *~Trivia Warning!~*The latin rootgiga means "giant", and tera means "monster"!So what's good for each type of memory? Ideally, the hard drive should hold the largest amount, followed by RAM and then video memory. Although these amounts constantly change (hey, having 16 MB of RAM used to be impressive), a good hard drive should hold at least 20 GB, probably a lot more if you're into photos, music, and especially videos (some models hold well past 200 GB!). RAM should be at least 1024 MB or above, and video memory varies with what you want to do. If you bought a computer to gun down and frustrate thousands across the globe while making it look like a high quality movie, 512 MB is stellar (even more is probably unnecessary, but FANTASTIC!). However, if you're just using Word, you won't need much at all.Let's say :1 bit=1 binary (0s and 1s) digit1 byte=8 bit1 kilobyte=1024 bytes1 megabyte=1024 kilobytes (Sounds like a lot; it isn't really.)1 gigabyte=1024 megabytes (You could say it's big)1 terrabyte=1024 gigabytes (Humungous)In video or tapes, an "exabyte" or "exobyte" is up to about a year straight of recording.Hope this answers your question thoroughly, and hey, you just might have learned something!

Four bytes represent 32 bits. 32 bits represent 4,294,967,296 possibilities.


What are the other kinds of bytes?

I have never heard of "other kinds of bytes." A byte is 8 bits. A bit is either 1 (on bit) or 0 (off bit). Bytes represent data usually in the form of text. Just about every letter on the keyboard can be represented with 1 byte. KB - Kilobyte - 1,000 bytes MB - Megabyte - 1,000,000 bytes GB - Gigabyte - 1,000,000,000 bytes TB - Terabyte - 1,000,000,000,000 bytes I have heard of a nibble which is 4 bits.
