My USB drives are getting destroyed!

So, I am transferring some itunes video files from my macbook to my imac, dropping them into itunes, then ejecting the drive, then putting it in my macbook, and deleting the files on the drive.

This was working out pretty well, but then, whenever I deleted an item, the USB drive acted like it still had the file in it, because there wasn't any room, so I was transferring 2 files at a time (around 480mb each) onto my 1g flash drive.

So now the flash drive says it only has 20mb left...

What happened? anyway to reverse it?

Empty your trash before ejecting the drive. That should do the trick.
