USB Flash Drive showing up as LOCAL DISK

Is Sandisk now manufacturing the Sandisk Extreme flash drive (which I purchased in the link above) as a normal removable flash drive which has the removable bit set to 1?

I think so.

Can those who bought one of these flash drives exchange their flash drive for an identical one which has the removable bit set to 1?

Possibly

Will SanDisk release a firmware update which sets the removable bit to 1 so my flash drive can function as a normal flash drive?

No.
