In this Digital Era, Many products such as Multimedia Device, Mobile Phone and other electronic equipment uses Memory Card...
And many company create a lot production of these.. Sometimes there are companies make a fakes storage capacity to get the attention of buyer..

What is Fake Storage on microSd and Flashdrive?
Sample of these is the product is 32GB SD card or more indicate in their product but the true usable storage is only 8GB. If you use it this Fake storage 32gb, Your data save in there is only 8GB and the rest storage was FAKE when it reach recommended space storage.
If you transfer 30GB file almost fill the 32gb SD card to these fake card resulting the rest last saved data will be "Damage" and give you headache if your file save there is important...

Question 1?
Can I can transfer 30GB file to fake storage 32GB flash drive or memory card ?
Answer ! YES!.
But the rest file in 30GB out of 8GB file is Damaged

You can save file because the system reading capacity of system is 32GB but the true capacity chipsets inside is not.
You save only is only 8GB and the rest save in there was damaged...
Lets check actual happen Watch video at
6:00 time transfer 1 Video on fake Storage.
No matter if it is expensive or inexpensive product. But most people are looking for cheap products.
And there now a birth of bad company produce Fake information of their product.
But not all companies make fake products produce, many not famous companies produce products like SD card Flash drive is not expensive or called it Class A or OEM products that show real and true information of their made that give TRUE Storage.

NOTE:

I do not intend to discredit the product screenshot below but rather help consumers come up with an idea. The screenshot item is compilation sample item already bought. Maybe not all same product picture above has Fake storage or coincidentally to me only.. There's many flash drive or SDcard is counterfeit I'm not going to tell you where I bought it. for store privacy.

FAKE FLASH TEST TOOL

DOWNLOAD

FakeFlashTest was designed to quickly check if flash memory devices are fake (i.e. they have been programmed to lie about their size), it does not check all memory for faults..
Example 1.
In the video below, There a lot of Sandisk MicroSd with the value of 16GB, 32GB, and 1pc 64GB.
The capacity storage test result of 16GB and 32GB is 100% true capacity storage results and STORE where it bought
VISIT ME But the 64GB was "failed" to reach recommended maximum capacity, it is only 31GB.
SAMPLE OF VIDEO HOW TO TEST STORAGE using a Test storage tool.FakeFlashTest and Low level format Test result on this Video.

Example 2.What is fake storage I experience here for this another labels
I bought an " msm.hk MicroSD Sandisk 16GB " products here the actual screenshot below..

When I test it in FAKEFLASHTEST Tool this msm.hk MicroSD Sandisk 16GB it is only 498MB storage but it reading my phone and computer as 16GB =15.4GB or 15000.4MB(16GB) as mass storage for caching some storage for system reading.. Computation is 1GB = 1000MB

"Open New Tab to enlarge image".
Like i said before in paragraph above, If I will transfer or Save maximum of 498MB file to this card the rest you save there result was damaged file..

Example 3.

Another Test Flash drive is Kingston 2GB in this screenshot label below

The Fake flash tool in base my "experience" by using this tool is perfect on class 4 speed or up to(80mb/s)card with maximum 32gb, In class 10 with max.16GB.
If you use it on class 10 speed memory or (100MB/s) 32Gb more up value? The result is not accurate or not compatible must better use a "H2testw" for better result, But this tool is more faster than other Testing storage tool.

QUESTION 2,

Give me Ideas how do I know a SD card have a "FAKE" Storage if I still not bought?
ANSWER,Yes I give basic Idea in my lot of experience as a buyer, You can notice it by "REVIEW" of products like my Blog here or in Flash picture screenshot of label of Item.

H2testw

H2testw writes data in chunks of 1 megabyte. So even if you choose to completely fill the media you will end up with up to 1 megabyte offree space. Although technically not correct H2testw uses the Windows convention that 1 MByte equals 1024 KByte or 1,048,576 Byte. In order to avoid problems with the 4 GByte limitation of the FAT file system, H2testw begins a new data file after each gigabyte (1024 MByte).
Inside a data file each 512-byte sector begins with a 64-bit word (8byte) containing the offset with regard to the whole data set. It isstored in little-endian format, least significant byte first.

So the file 1.h2w file begins with [00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00]
The next sector with [00 02 00 00 00 00 00 00]
The next with [00 04 00 00 00 00 00 00] and so on.
The file 2.h2w begins with 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 00
(offset 1 GByte = 0x40000000).
The rest of each sector is filled with a pseudo random number sequence using the offset word as a seed.
