    Ok i purchased an off brand 16gb flash drive off of ebay and everything worked fine for a few days. Well now its starting to mess all my data on the dive up. I checked it with a flash drive checker and it said i had a few recoverable bad sectors on the drive. I then start the search for a program to fix bad sectors on a flash drive and i cant find any. So heres my question....

    Does anyone know of any software (free or paid) that will either repair the bad sectors or disable the bad sectors so that no data is written to that part?

    I don't like bumping topics but this one has went to page 2 without an answer.

    Anyone?
