A real non-destructive storage capacity and sector integrity verifier for Linux USB flash drives, SD/microSD cards, external SSDs, and mounted folders.
A lightweight Linux alternative to H2testw and F3 (Fight Flash Fraud) for detecting counterfeit wrap-around capacity drives and silent bit corruption.
Key features:
- Live mounted filesystem inspector reading /proc/mounts and os.statvfs (device node, mountpoint, filesystem type, total/used/free GiB, and mount flags).
- Non-destructive sequential chunk writer (.scv files synced via os.fsync) embedding 64-bit global byte offsets and deterministic sector patterns into every 512-byte sector.
- Byte-for-byte readback verifier with SHA-256 digest checking and exact first bad sector / wrap-around alias offset detection to expose fake flash drives that overwrite earlier blocks.
- Visual per-chunk Write vs Read MB/s throughput chart, exportable TXT/JSON audit reports, and one-click test file cleanup.
