    [FONT=&quot]Your memory disk is asking to format is because its file system is turned to RAW. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]

    All that's happened to the OP drive is either a full hardware failure (cheap/fake USB drive?) or the master file table (MFT) has been corrupted by (and not limited to) removing it whilst the system was accessing the MFT.
