Did you follow the link I provided in my previous reply?

I am having the same issue.  And YES I have followed the link and read all of what is there.  However,

http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5222/kw/secureaccess/related/1 states that “There is NO pre-installed software needed…”,

and,

http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5854/related/1 shows you how to remove the software, and step 3 tells you to format the drive, which I have done.  Now I am unable to write to the device.  When connecting the device to the PC, it runs the scan and fix program.  After it scans it tells me that there is no defects.  Which I already know.  However, the drive will not allow me to write to it, and causes the PC to hang for a couple of minutes while it churns.

Any advice is appreciated.
