If you have problems with your new Memory Card like files are corrupt, the camera says its broken or you just got trouble with it, you may should check if the card is alright. It happens a lot that cheap memory cards or products with memory storrage get a tuning in capacity. They use cheap 2GB memory cards, print 8, 16 or 32GB on it, and manipulate it so it pretends to have a bigger capacity. What happens is, that 2Gb (As example) work perfectly, but everything that goes over this size will get corrupt or somehow just not work properly.
H2testw is a program made by the German computer and tec magazine Heise.de. It writes test data on the memory card and checks afterwards how much of the test data is still alright. If the memory card would be a fake card, it shows you how much of it is fake memory and how much is real. Also it will show you how fast it writes and reads the data of the memory card. The program also works with flash drives, MP3 players and everything that got memory.
Also very useful is, if you already got some data on the memory card, it writes the test files around your data, so it wont get deleted.
Its a very good program that doesent requires a installation, for a quick check if your new memory card is good or not. And if not, you got a proof and can demand your money back from the seller.
Here an example of a "8GB" iPod fake a friend gave me a while ago:
Because most of the people here speak english i found a english page for you guys to download it from.
Download from Softpedia.com
Otherwise you can download it from the developers page. Just click on download
Download from Heise.de
And no they dont pay me for this here
Sorry if i made some grammatically mistakes. German and stuff
