h2testw – Gold standard in detecting fake capacity flash
The free program h2testw has proved its worth in detecting flash drives which have been programmed to miss-report capacity (what we now call frankenflash). We give H2testw 1.4 the highest rating and recommend it for testing fraudulently programmed USB Flash Drives for the following reasons:
1. Easy to Use
2. Tested to work on 1.1 and 2.0 USB Ports
3. Tested to work to analyze drives advertised as 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB and yes …64 GB capacity.
4. Reports what the operating system sees size to be.
5. Will write 1 GB files up to the reported size – requiring no work on your part except patience if it is a large drive and a slow computer
6. Will read all the files it wrote and verify them
7. Will report that the test ran without problems if all is well
8. Will produce a detailed report showing the true capacity, how much data has been lost/corrupted and whether there are aliased memory addresses if problems are found.
9. Output results can easily be copied and pasted into notepad to be saved as a text file.
10. The program is free
