OK, good.
No no, this is a confusion. It has to be the device name assigned to the USB stick, and we know it doesn't exist. The entire USB bus is not working with the disk. This might be a BIOS setting re USB power, that is disabled.
The interesting thing is that when I attach a USB stick, there are no problems whatsoever. Here, the last disk here is the /dev/sdc, the USB stick I now attached:
---- localhost:/home/siberia # fdisk -l
...
Disk /dev/sdc: 29.84 GiB, 32044482560 bytes, 62586880 sectors Disk model: Survivor 3.0 Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x00000000

You could remove that stick and connect the one that does not work, and try directly: fdisk -l /dev/sdc fsck -n /dev/sdc1 But I expect them to fail. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from Elesar, using openSUSE Leap 15.3)
