Hi Robert,
Thanks for replying. When I plug in the USB Device in Windows PC for
the first time, Windows will try to read the MBR (Master Boot record)
or PBR (Partition Boot record). That time my device wont be having MBR
or PBR since it is not formatted even once.
What can be done in that case.
The OS detects that the device is unformatted and handles formatting which is nothing else than writing some blocks of data to the device. The content of the blocks of data is nothing the device is usually interested in.
Of course delivering USB sticks preformatted with FAT32 is common, but that is indeed nothing else but the above step (probably handled by a special computer though).
