It explains why marking sectors as "bad" will not work on flash drives!!!

Hey, Rabbit80, don't be so negative! These drives of mine are not worn out, as far as I can tell they were shipped with bad sectors and the faulty ones are not getting any worse.

I'll let everyone know the outcome in due course. If they're no good, then you can gloat!
