I have received an RO (write-protected) flash drive, and I'm wondering if the write protection can be removed, changing it to R/W.

Depending on whether it's hardware or software protection, this might work.

  1. Open a terminal (CTRL + ALT + T)

  2. Type sudo hdparm -r0 /dev/XdY Where X and Y are the letters identifying your flash drive
