Windows 10: "USB attached SCSI mass storage device" naming/labeling error

Hello everyone,

I was fiddling around with formatting one of my USB flash drive and for some odd reason, whenever I disconnect the flash drive it's now displaying "USB attached SCSI mass storage device" instead of "USB Mass Storage Device".





Here is the driver being installed for my flash drive at the moment:





Under normal circumstances, it should look something like this instead:





I've tried uninstalling this "SCSI" driver via device manager however, when I connect the same USB again, it'll show the same thing. I also tried installing the new driver for it though, it doesn't display the usual USB mass storage device anywhere on the list. When I install "Disk Drive" (as shown below), it'll install the SCSI driver, not USB Mass Storage Device driver.





All in all, how do you fix this naming/labeling problem of USB? I couldn't find anyone else having this problem except for one person, who has posted the exact same issue years ago: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...6-0fe3c3aeba93
Yet, the thread didn't end with solutions so I'm lost as to what I need to do next in order to fix this problem.

Thank you and I greatly appreciate your help. I've been searching answers for hours and it's driving me nuts at the moment...

"USB attached SCSI mass storage device" naming/labeling error

Oh... But I'm 100% sure that this same flash drive was using "USB Mass Storage Device" for its driver instead of SCSI. Or maybe I saw it wrong?

I've just plugged in every single flash drives and external HDD that I have and half are using SCSI while the other half are using USB Mass Storage Device. They're all USB 3.0.

So it all comes down to whether it uses old or new protocols?

 

how to change "USB attached SCSI mass storage device" to "USB mass storage device"

Hi there:

I have a Seagate USB portable drive and I mainly use it to connect to my ASUS Oplay! media player to watch the content on TV.

This device use to be an USB mass storage device.

Recently, I noticed whenever I eject my seagte portable drive, the device is showing as ""USB attached SCSI mass storage device" instead of a regular "USB mass storage device". This is when my media player stopped recognising the portable drive (showing
the device is not supported). The portable drive works fine on my Windows 10 PC, just not recognising by my media player anymore.

Wondering if anyone can point out how I can restore my portable hard drive back to a generic USB mass storage device instead of being a "USB attached SCSI mass storage device".

Thank you.
