Given the sheer amount of counterfeit products out there, it is clear to everyone that all fields are targeted, including computers and hardware. According to some reports, the flash memory storage devices are highly affected by this particular issue. If you are planning to purchase a flash drive or acquired one and want to make sure it is the real deal, then FakeFlashTest is a tool that can come in handy.

Key Features:

The tool is especially designed to help you detect fake flash drives, which tend to corrupt your data once the dedicated memory fills up. You can easily determine whether your flash drive is original or fake by selecting it from the list and then testing it. Unlike similar tools, it doesn't check every inch and byte, but rather it is designed to look for missing memory parts and consequently, the test is done faster.

If you are like most users out there, then chances are that you are ready to try out anything to avoid formatting the drive. You will be happy to learn that the tool includes a Fill Test that helps you avert formatting. However, it is important to note that if the drive is fake, then there is a high possibility that the test leads to data loss and can corrupt the files.

• Read and write standard sectors

According to the developer, the role of the tool is to read and write the standard sectors on the memory device and does not destroy it. In case you encounter this issue and cannot reformat the drive, then make sure that you are not formatting it as NTFS. More often than not, flash drives are originally formatted as FAT32. Although FakeFlashTest enables FAT32 formatting, there is no guarantee that it will not still be faulty.
