Checks to see whether a USB drive is counterfeit or advertising a fake size.

FakeFlashTest is a free utility that allows you to test the real storage capacity of your hard disks, USB sticks, memory cards and other external storage media.

The reason why such tools exist is because the market is flooded with USB flash devices sold as having a larger capacity than they actually do. These can often be found at online discounters or foreign retailers.

In just a few minutes, FakeFlashTest is able to tell you the total storage space offered by a device, allowing you to know if the USB flash drives and other cheap memory cards you may have bought online are in order.

Note that you may have issues with NTFS-formatted devices.
