Your computer doesn't "know" how big a drive is; it only knows what the controller chip

FirstChip ChipYC2019 drives typically experience failures due to three main reasons: For a completely broken or corrupted ChipYC2019 drive,

Go to an established repository like USBDev FirstChip Files to download an updated production version, such as or comparable historical releases.

Concise conclusion chipYC2019 is a ubiquitous, low‑cost FirstChip controller whose failures are predominantly controller/firmware related and often resolvable only with the correct FirstChip MPTool or by professional NAND recovery; success varies with NAND quality and hardware damage. Concise conclusion chipYC2019 is a ubiquitous

Disclaimer: Repairing flash drives with MpTools will erase all data currently on the drive.

If the drive is not recognized by the computer at all (no sound, no device in Device Manager), I can give you instructions on how to use on the PCB to force it into programming mode.
