Further Reading: Causes for Removable Disk No Media

In general, there are multiple causes that are responsible for the removable/USB drive no media issue. Here I show you the most common ones leading to no recognized partition on the USB drive:

• No media inserted. If you are using a card reader, make sure it has an SD card inserted or the SD card is properly inserted. Without media, you will definitely receive the USB drive no media issue.
• Bad or loose connection. For a USB flash drive or USB external hard drive, bad or loose USB port connection may bring this error.
• USB drive was forcefully removed. Without ejecting or safely removing the USB drive from the computer, files saved on the USB drive including the MBR or PBR of the device are likely to get damaged.
• Virus infection. The files on the USB drive may be damaged by a computer virus.
• Insufficient power supply from the USB port. Overloading USB ports like inserting multiple USB drives may result in the USB showing 0 bytes and no media.
• Failing flash drive. No Media error happens also when the flash memory controller cannot communicate with the NAND flash memory on the drive. As a result, Windows will treat the drive as an empty disk drive.
