Are you sure this warning appears when you use a SanDisk USB key? That's most unexpected. > It's also strange for me that when I plug in a > Kingston DataTraveler 2.0, the WARNING never shown. The warning doesn't show up unless the device has an odd number of sectors. Most devices have an even number of sectors, so they never trigger the warning. In principle I would expect _all_ USB flash devices to have an even number of sectors; that's why I'm surprised the SanDisk key doesn't.
