Copying files couldnt complete because disk keeps dissapearing, USB erase failed, And now my USB is unregocnizable by my laptop

I absolutely regret buying a macbook. Today i tried to copy some files using a usb hub, and it keeps failing because the disk keeps dissapearing when copying. I tried to erase it to change the format because a youtube tutorial said so, and now the disk is unreadable, and first aid doesnt even help the slightest.

MacBook Air, macOS 12.5

Try attaching it directly to the Mac. Some hubs and docks do not play well with macOS. You may need an adapter; a simple passthrough is called for.


We love our three iMacs and two MacBook Pros.
