So I have the same exact problem. I received a 64GB extreme USB drive and as soon as I tried to copy files the copy failed and the system froze up. I could read the files on the drive just fine. So I tried to format the drive using the exFAT file system but the format fails every time. It almost appears like the drive is write protected or the drive shuts off and stops communicating after a few seconds. This is the second drive that I have, and both have resulted in the same issue.
