The capacity of the stick must be larger than ~3 GB.
On the stick will be three partitions, 1 GB size each. It is simple
written to the partition table that there are this partitions, it
doesn't matter whether this is possible or not (e.g. the stick has only
a capacity of 2 GB).
This is only my experience. Last time my USB stick broke down I first
tried to replace it by a stick with a capacity of 2 GB only. The probe
wrote some data to the stick (the LED of the stick was blinking) but
then the probe hang in a boot loop. After plugging the USB stick into my
pc fdisk showed me that there are this three partitions.

I have a dead probe that I've tried both waiting 10 minutes with the USB
stick out and placing a fresh USB stick in, but it still sits on what
looks like running from internal flash.
Is there another method anybody knows that can bring this old probe back
to life?
