The flashdrive in case was a random merchandise gift thing. It worked previously and was just the first one in the drawer.
But yeah in the future I will defintly get something better.
Also I did learn how to directly read and write Chips on the mainboard so the time spent wasn't totally wasted.
Oof. Honestly I do the same thing and I think your experience just convinced me not to. I keep a couple of those junk vendor USB's just for things like BIOS updates since the capacity is usually small. I hadn't considered one failing right in the middle of an update.
