Reading and writing work up until some point that a copy to the drive fails and I start getting an endless stream the g_vfs_done() errors. All subsequent writes to the drive immediately fail. However, reading from the drive works fine for hours after the write error first occured. The system will not shut down cleanly and forces me to hard power it off or reset it. Sometimes the drive needs to be repaired by booting into Windows 7. I've used the 2 gig drives for over a year in Windows 7 on the exact same hardware with not a single problem ever.
