@luke -- what's the Mac version of fsck (command-line filesystem check, Windows' version is chkdsk) and did you run it?
yep.
I've 'fixed' improperly-unmounted USB thumb drives with that command.
yep, i know what it does - it triggers an ioctl to the system which refreshes the partition table.
On Linux, where 'sdx' is your SSD, "fsck -a sdx" (no quotes!) followed by a punch of the ENTER key, will do good things, if it's just a corrupt filesystem.
all it does is hang at that point. the kingston 512gb drive really is completely f*****d.
