This is very concerning. I wonder if you have a fake USB drive. If that's the case, then you can consider your data gone. And it often doesn't fail until you've written a certain amount of data. Or possibly also read a certain amount which is likely what happened in this case.

# lsblk -f /dev/sdb
NAME FSTYPE FSVER LABEL UUID FSAVAIL FSUSE% MOUNTPOINTS
sdb

If this or fdisk doesn't return any partitions, then there's no point trying to mount it.

Try running "gpart /dev/sdb" again. If it still finds the FAT32 partition, then run "gpart -W /dev/sdb /dev/sdb".

Assuming that's successful, try "lsblk -f /dev/sdb".

If that still shows the partition, then try mounting it.

If that fails, show "dmesg | tail".
