JSK Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I have a 32 GB Survivor which was replaced under warranty a few months ago. The replacement has been fine since then, until recently it started acting up. When copying files to the Survivor or from the Survivor, the drive suddenly becomes "read only" (as shown in Disk Manager) and the file transfers stop with an error that the drive is "write protected." Removing the drive from the PC and then re-inserting it will resolve the issue for a short while, but then shortly after file transfer resumes, it does the same thing again. Should this drive be RMA'd? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 11, 2010 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 11, 2010 Have you tried formatting the drive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSK Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 I did a quick format (NTFS) then tried to copy 1298 files (8.07 GB) to the drive. After copying 632 files, the copying stopped with the message "The disk is write protected." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
