How to Spot a Fake MicroSD Card

I ran across this article that I thought a bunch of those running on SBCs might find it interesting and useful.

The top part of the article is less than useful. But the tools in the second half are useful for those who maybe couldn’t pass up a deal that was too good to be true and want to find out if it was. Unfortunately they are all Windows tools, but that is better than nothing.

Also heard of SSD’s being fake with a nasty micro SD hidden inside the SSD to make the drive work so a user does not know.
