sorry, do not understandnot sure, but iirc, the size displayed is part of sector 0 or the master boot record.
if you do the h2testw test don't do the whole storage size, unless you're prepared to wait years. only test like 32gb or something at first
if it drops to like 0.2mb/s after like 8gb then it's fake, you can start with a smaller test and if it succeeds then go to a bigger sizeNo you got to test the whole card, so you know it is a legit 1TB card.

the drive doesn't register as any higher than 8gb anymore anyway so it's definitely fake and they probably messed with the partition table to make it show as 1tb
do so from amazon.So, problem solved.
Now, this makes me think if/when will I ever need or want to buy a 512GB or 1TB SD card? I'm using a notebook with 1TB and own a couple of TB HDDs, plus some 128GB SD cards it's hard to see the need to.
When 512GB/1TB SD gets cheaper I'll probably buy one. Well, more likely 1TB because 512GB gets filled up too quickly.do so from amazon.
you're missing the point. if it's a fake card it won't be writing or reading at that speed, i've seen how fake cards act with h2testwThe whole point of testing the card was testing the entire card, you be wasting people time telling someone to test only 32GB. Beside Class 10 card write speed is about 20-30MB/s and U3 Class speed is around 70MB/s when testing the card, I got a few before.
A 1.5tb exists, but I don't think it's public yet.When 512GB/1TB SD gets cheaper I'll probably buy one. Well, more likely 1TB because 512GB gets filled up too quickly.

Once SDs become the standard, that's the beginning of the end for HDDs.A 1.5tb exists, but I don't think it's public yet.
