No, that doesn’t sound normal at all. While flash drives can get warm during heavy use, it shouldn’t become excessively hot to the touch. I would suggest try using the drive on another system and see if the problem still continues. Or, its possible that there’s a defect in the drive itself, which is causing it to overheat.
