    Better than. Has same functionality (even can produce h2testw files) BUT HAS MORE. Probe facility to rapidly identify known fakes - much much quicker than h2testw. runs on macs as well as linux and doze. Open source. Brew designed to help learn techniques of fakery - if you are interested.

    CapacityTester

     Like

    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.

    File Read Test

    Reads disk files or directories and stops on the first read error.

    There are two versions: a command-line perl script and a Java GUI.
