CapacityTester is described as 'Tool to test a USB drive or memory card to find out if it's a fake. The tool performs a simple test to determine if the full capacity is usable or not. All it does is fill the volume with test data and verify if the data on the volume is correct' and is an app in the os & utilities category. There are eight alternatives to CapacityTester for Windows, Linux and Mac. The best CapacityTester alternative is H2testw, which is free. Other great apps like CapacityTester are F3, ValiDrive, Quick Disk Test and MediaTester.
