Exesploit Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Hello all. I recently started up my pineapple in light of the recent 2.8.1 update and plugged in my new 32gb sandisk cruzer drive (Formatted correctly) after trying to install SSL strip unsuccessfully it kept un-mounting the drive every time I tried to install something to it. It has now made my drive read only! and that's permanently read only. It also recognizes the device not as a sandisk cruzer blade but as an unknown device when I plug it in now. I remember the same thing happening with the first sandisk Fit I had that came with the pineapple. It made that read only aswell. Which I sent back to sandisk under RMA. Anyone got any Ideas?

barry99705 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 It happens with the sandisk drives, their quality control is a little lacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebkinne Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 SanDisk sadly has this issue with a few of their drives. It's 99% not actually the pineapple but the drive.. Best regards, Sebkinne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hfam Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 SanDisk sadly has this issue with a few of their drives. It's 99% not actually the pineapple but the drive.. Best regards, Sebkinne Well...."a few" is subjective. I have an actual handful of dead SanDisk 4/8/16gb Cruzer Fit drives. Not worth the time or effort to send them back, I'd purchased them at various times around the MKIII release....they've all died the same R/O death. I would rework that comment to more accurately say that "SanDisk has no issues with a very few of their Cruzer Fit drives."...but that's just my cynical, I'm-out-about-$100-worth-of-dead-SanDisk-drives side coming out. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velkrosmaak Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I've had the same problem with 3 different USB memory sticks now, surely this can't all be down to faulty hardware? Could this have anything to do with the Pineapple losing power while it's in the middle of writing to a file, and the drive then staying locked somehow? Thanks for any tips.

crepsidro Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 It's pineapple. I had numerous cards (including microsd via reader) killed by mk4... I decided to never buy anything from hakshop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velkrosmaak Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Any of the Hak5 crew want to comment on that? I'm not trying to assign blame - just trying to work out how I can get my Pineapple to stay working without needing to feed it USB sticks.

velkrosmaak Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 This has happened to another Kingston USB drive. Pineapple hangs, reboots, and comes back with no USB mounted. Reapplied fstab changes, rebooted pineapple - no good. Time for me to get the mark V? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
