Clef usb informatable et inutilisable

Bonjour à tous,

j'ai une clé usb qui depuis pas mal de temps m'ennuie.
en effet, elle n'apparait pas dans mon poste de travail mais je peut la voire avec gparted.

dans gparted, quant je double clique sur ma partition pour voir les infos, il me dit : impossible d'ouvrir /dev/sdb-etiquette de disque non reconnue.

lorsque je lui demande de créer une nouvelle partition il me dit que la table des partitions n'est pas créée. si je la crée et que je retente de créer une partition le message d'erreur réapparait.

j'utilise donc maintenant fdisk :

root@bebert-laptop:/home# fdisk /dev/sdb
Le périphérique ne contient pas une table de partitions DOS ou Sun, SGI, OSF valide
Création d'une nouvelle étiquette DOS avec id de disque 0xe4c3b406.
Les modifications restent en mémoire jusqu'à ce que vous les écriviez.
Après quoi, bien sûr, le contenu précédent sera irrécupérable.

AVERTISSEMENT: fanion 0x0000 non valide dans la table de partitions 4, sera corrigé par w(écriture)

WARNING: DOS-compatible mode is deprecated. It's strongly recommended to
switch off the mode (command 'c') and change display units to
sectors (command 'u').

ce que j'ai crus comprendre en me promenant sur la toile, c'est que le MBR de la clée est abimé mais je ne suis pas sure d'avoir bien tout compris.

merci d'avance de votre attention !
