usb storage - Program recommendation to test USB memory - Ask Ubuntu


i bought usb sticks , sd cards. price way good, , suspect counterfeit products. not able find program runs on ubuntu can used check these cards/sticks. not have skills necessary compile, program install easily. thanks.

there's linux program called f3 can test fake flash drives. info , download @ http://oss.digirati.com.br/f3/. it's not big deal compile, requires use of make command in terminal. program 2 separate programs, f3write , f3read.

use them in terminal, this:

cd directory_where_f3_source_is_located ie: cd ~/desktop/f3

make used compile program, required once

./f3write /path_to_flash_drive ie: ./f3write /media/my_username/my_flash

./f3read /path_to_flash_drive ie: ./f3read /media/my_username/my_flash
