Don't run it through the dryer. It may build up a static charge and zap itself. Let it dry for a very long time, then try it. It should work fine, I've run my flash drive through the washer and dryer multiple times without losing any data or functionality.

What brand of flash drive do you use? I did the same thing and lost about two weeks of work for my opinion research class.


I have an old Geek Squad 512 MB that I got with a hefty employee discount when I used to work there.  I wouldn't recommend that you put any brand through the washing machine though, you're rolling the dice no matter what.
