Question HP Proliant ML350 and a USB key drive

Ah!

I'm having issues here with a HP Proliant ML350 server and a USB drive key.

I'm unable to remove the USB key from the back of the server

I'm thinking there's some kind secuirty lock on the server itself, maybe?

I can't boot the server up as it's trying to read the drive for a bootsector!



Anyone heard of this before and how best remove the USB key?

I've seen USB devices get stuck when the connector has been rammed in upside down.. is that a possibility?

The key works fine, so not sure if it's upside down.

For a start it won't work at all if it's upside down... it was removed by force in the end.. (not by me, this was a remote home user) he managed to extract it.. but the contacts had been stripped.. and it never worked again.

Out of interest.. how much force have you applied so far... some USB ports can be pretty unforgiving.

It worked so def not upside down.

It was just a snug fit...I eventually gave it a good jank and it came out! *phew!
