Did it used to work properly? When you look at the properties of this device, what is the folder optimized for? I think it should be "General items".

It could also be the USB port. So you could try a different port (on a different pair of ports) or another device in that port.

Press start, search for Command Prompt, and Run as Admin. Type "Diskpart" and press enter. Type "List Volume" and press enter. Note the # of the volume of your drive. Type "Select Volume #" and press enter. Replace "#" with the number in the previous step. Type "Attributes Volume Clear NoDefaultDriveLetter" and press enter. You should see a success message. Type "exit" and press enter. Do this twice.
