How Do I Upgrade The Firmware Of A Usb Memory Stick (flash Disk) ?
How do I upgrade the firmware of a USB memory stick (flash disk), particularly when the brand is unknown and their website useless?The reason I want to upgrade the firmware is that I want to be able to reformat the USB memory stick in order to be able to use it on any system without trouble (Windows, Mac, Linux). Currently, formatting options allow either Windows OR Mac formatting, which is very much surprising and annoying.

There is no firmware in traditional sense in these devices, they are pretty much a storage medium. But you can format it in NTFS in windows using the traditional format method(My Computer, Select Drive, Format)...and install add-ons on both Mac and Linux to read NTFS
