#### Flash media stress test program

Mikaey's Flash Stress Test is a program to stress test flash media to the
point of failure -- and possibly beyond. It detects whether a storage
device is fake flash, speed tests the device, and stress tests it.

**WARNING**

This program is DESTRUCTIVE. It is designed to stress test storage
devices (particularly flash media) to the point of failure. If you
let this program run for long enough, it WILL completely destroy the
device and render it completely unusable. Do not use it on any
storage devices that you care about.

This is NOT an official distribution of Mikaey's Flash Stress Test.
