Kingston USB flash drive, how to disassemble this metal integrated disk of Kingston USB flash drive

This is due to the difference in how the capacity of the hard drive is calculated.

One way to calculate is: 1GB (gigabytes) = 1000MB (megabytes) = 1000x1000kb (kilobytes) = 1000x1000x1000b (bytes), and each unit is a 3rd power multiple of 10, which is 1000 times.

One algorithm is: 1GB (gigabytes) = 1024MB (megabytes) = 1024x1024KB (kilobytes) = 1024x1024x1024b (bytes), and each unit is a 10th power multiple of 2, which is 1024 times.

Generally, hard disk or USB disk manufacturers use the first algorithm, but the Windows system on the computer uses the latter algorithm. Every 1G of the second algorithm will be much larger than every 1G of the first algorithm, and in the end it will not be enough for 16G.

This is within the normal range, when the manufacturer manufactures, the advance rate between bit, kb, mb, and GB is calculated as 1000 (e.g. 1000k = 1m), and in the computer it is calculated as 1024 (e.g. 1024k = 1m), so this brings an error, that is, it will be smaller than the capacity he said.

No, because the algorithm of the computer is not the same as the manufacturer's algorithm. The computer thinks that 1024m = 1g, while the manufacturer produces it at 1000m = 1g. So you don't lose.

Normal, the manufacturer calculates: 1g = 1000m

Usually what we call 1g = 1024m

That is, the manufacturer produces less than the standard calculation.

Theoretically, it is calculated by 1024, but it is actually calculated by 1000. So the USB flash drive is like this.

1. First of all, prepare the tools for disassembling the U disk, some have screws, most of the U disk is without screws, here I dismantle this kingstu disk is without screws.

2. Here we can see that this is the USB flash drive that needs to be disassembled, here we need to wash our hands, remove the static electricity on our hands, and then wipe them dry.

3. After wiping dry, use a screwdriver to pry the iron shell on it, pry out one side first, and then pry the other side, and try to use your hands to take it out when prying.

4. After taking out the iron, we can continue to pry it with a screwdriver from the middle area of the U disk, pry it open, and the force should not be too large to prevent the shell from breaking.

5. Finally, remove the chips inside, some of the chips here are fixed with screws, and some are watered and glued, note that different ways to take them out are different.
