A “64GB” SanDisk Cruzer Blade that corrupts files after 4GB.
Without v4.20, I would have just seen “SanDisk” and been stuck. Why does this old version still matter in an era of NVMe SSDs and USB4?
Because . Modern OSes abstract away the chip details. Manufacturers intentionally obscure controller info to prevent third-party repairs. And cloud storage means fewer people even try to fix a dead thumb drive.
