[RIPE Atlas Ambassadors] Most of the probe down because of USB Stick read-only

Hi , 
I've spent significant number of hours trying to do that. No luck. I did ended up with Verbatim stick. There's no way to get it out of RO mode. 
Then I just went to the store and bought 8 Gig USB 2.0 Kingston. Works like a charm :) 

Thank you

Hi,

I just realised that most of my Ambassador Probes are offline probably caused by USB stick that turned into read-only mode.

A couple of guys that I contacted and I give them instruction to reformat the USB stick said that the USBs are read only.

I already told them to try to change the USB sticks, but looks like none are voluntarily (buy a new USB/use their USB stick) to change the USB sticks.

Any idea how to revive the dead probe?

Thank you
Budiwijaya
