Great way to corrupt a perfectly usable USB stick!

Asked by Keltas

I've been looking for ways to corrupt perfectly usable USB sticks, and this is a great way!
It even managed to corrupt the information of my cellphone's memory which was connected to my computer.

That's definitely a bonus!

Proper solution if You encounter any problems:

(submitted by sugi (buy-vtecpower) )

If Using Windows 7:
"1)Execute diskpart on cmd.exe (or Win-R)
2)DISKPART> list disk
3)DISKPART> select disk x
  x is the number of the USB drive.
  If you make a mistake, it is sure to become a large disaster!
4)DISKPART> clean
5)DISKPART> exit

The usb memory revived by this."

If using linux, just use gparted. No problems at all, checked on 3 different pendrives.

Can you help with this problem?
