As many of you will know Alan keeps his eye on the development of a program called SpinRite. He has recently
come across an article on the GRC website that highlighted problems with buying some USB storage devices.
The utility can be found at GRC.com and it gives you the ability to quickly spot-check any USB mass storage drive
for fraudulent deliberately missing storage.
The drive maps above are typical of the fraudulent drives which are flooding the market. This shows a drive sold as
two terabytes (2TB) which actually only contains 62 gigabytes (62GB) of flash storage. Please see ValiDrive's com-
plete report about this drive, below.
