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
