Is there a particular reason you use that 'UB' driver for your USB
sticks, instead of the more conventional 'USB Storage' one?

The former is very unusual, and I've never seen it actually used before
- it may be you're working around a bug in a driver than nobody has ever
cared to fix. Honestly, it's not at all clear to me why this driver even
exists - some Google hits suggest it might be good for certain embedded
system...
