I've installed FreeBSD 10.2 from CD and successfully mounted this stick (/dev/da0p2). At least in FreeBSD it doesn't make any problem. Before I mounted it there was some messages on the consle. You can see the screenshot there: http://oi67.tinypic.com/351yiqd.jpg On the last line of that message it says that: "the secondary GPT header is not in the last LBA". Then I repartitioned (with MBR schema) and reformatted it and voila it works properly on Windows as before FreeBSD. So there is no hardware problem with this stick, for sure.
