Fake Sony 1000 GB USB flash drive BUSTED!

[@vwestlife]

Many common questions regarding these fake USB drives are addressed in this FAQ video by AtomicShrimp, who tested a similar fake USB drive: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXrMYYCQj5ikeLs Also, I know that's the Windows XP logo, not the Windows 7 logo! You don't need to keep telling me about it.

[@Shaheer-PK]

Ur channel not ded noice

[@Chriskinda96]

Hey did you know that's XP logo not the windows 8 logo?

[@Kennephone]

This is finda funny watching now, cause real 1tb flash drives can almost be gotten at that price. they are about $100. The cheapest 1TB SSDs can be had for just under $40, although I wouldn't use them for anything but bulk storage due to their lack of dram and just lower build quality. WD black gen 4 drives are $59 right now.

[@ReinEngel]

It always amazed me how defensive people were over this issue. I guess they didn't want to admit to being scammed.

[@wesleytan6842]

Windows 7 did use this logo when printing test pages.

[@kurtrowland5587]

Props to the man who ran a 5.5 day test on a known bad hardware lol

[@MrEnclaveTasla]

For science!!!

[@asrielfbi5975]

he could have tested it with 10gb since its last report already showed him it would be around 8gb usb stick. He would have got the same results with 35 minutes...

[@jeremey2072]

And just plugging in a random USB drive 😂

[@TechyBen]

He could have put a 3gb file on, then checked... even if it was a 8gb device or whatever, checking this way would be quicker than waiting 3 days for the 1tb. :P

Lmao my first flash drive encounter

[@vwestlife]

*YES, I FREAKING KNOW THAT'S THE WINDOWS XP LOGO, NOT THE WINDOWS 7 LOGO!* But feel free to post a comment saying that anyway, as it helps boost my video's search ranking and view count! :-)

[@gerhardprins1412]

Apparently my mom didn't watch your videos, cuz she bought me a 256GB 'lash' drive which looked exactly the same as this one, only green and without any logos. And no, I didn't forget an F in 'LASH', the package said 'LASH' on it.

[@shouge8701]

[@booga6677]

yes because we are giving f's for you in chat

[@JoelTGM]

so they get to sell fake shit and a small percentage of buyers will know enough to take a refund. why does eBay not remove the seller?

[@DrewShiGold]

I've reported stuff like this and bootleg pokemon cartridges, the seller disputes it and then Ebay drops the issue, based on my observation.

[@coconutthief1316]

Can't you just ruin his rep then? Even a single bad review can cripple his sales, not to mention you are warning other people.

[@DrewShiGold]

Coconut Thief I hope so. All I know is he's still got his listing open, and commented on my review in an attempt to dispute it. at least I got my money back and a free bootleg game that can function

[@TheDrakenZ]

hahaha USB killer would be so mean.

[@charlescampuz5812]

Then I'm calling the police

[@drone124]

what is a USB killer

[@TheDrakenZ]

***** someone puts a capacitor inside a USB stick attached to the power leads and charges it, so when it gets plugged in, it sends out high voltage and fries shit.

[@6Twisted]

If it was a 1TB USB, the read/write speed of USB 2.0 would be painful.

[@thevideocamman5674]

man can’t believe windows 8 xp is coming out.

[@Larry]

Would an actual 1TB stick even use FAT32? I'd thought it's be NTFS at that capacity. But these test things I find a lot easier to just copy some large files to it, it's a lot quicker.

[@hellterminator]

Yes. FAT32 can handle up to 16TB. It is used as a default file system on pretty much all drives because the manufacturers want them working right out of the box and FAT32 is the newest (or more precisely least antiquated) file system with absolutely reliable support on all major platforms.

[@HowlinMadMurD0C]

I keep seeing you in various unrelated videos?! I don't know who's stalking who?!

[@HowlinMadMurD0C]

I'll be honoured if the great Larry Bundy JR was stalking me.

[@freakymundo]

+hellterminator i thought FAT32 can only handle up to 32-64GB

[@vwestlife]

+freakymundo FAT32 supports up to 2 TB.

[@bendr251]

RedEyed Rocker Lol that is not a Windows 7 logo that is XP logo

[@RedAISkye]

bendr251 Btw, XP and 7 have the same logo.

[@SiNKarnage]

Bidhan Tandukar The 7 Logo has a bright yellow circle center to the window forming around the ends of the squares. The XP, as you see in this video, has a glossy reflective look to the squares like when you bend steel it gets that spherical shape to it (like the inside of a steel bowl) and it reflects light off it

[@RedAISkye]

SiNKarnage Whatever, the logo is same. Just because the logo has some lighting changes doesn't mean it's different. The difference should be like Windows 8 and Windows 10 Logo. Look at how different the logo are.

[@farwahbatool6247]

[@dangus69420]

yeah right lol

[@s.l.8221]

the windows 8 logo on the package is so ridicoulusly wrong, it hurt my eyes

[@kbhasi]

2:16 that's the XP logo, not the Win7 logo

[@TORAPoops]

***** I chuckled at this. Haha.

[@AnAtari2600]

Haha hi Kevin you know who I am, whatsapp me if you do.

[@ZacharyDietze]

They don't look too different though.

[@bruhtha04]

You know it's a scam when windows and Sony are on the same product

[@thatoneuser5066]

Actually they used to manufacture laptops and still did at the time this video was uploaded. They sold the PC business a year later though.

[@madizn3029]

I had a hard laugh when i saw the packaging

[@darklinggolem]

Signs of Fake USB Flash Drives Windows XP Logo on windows 8. Flash Drives Says "Compatible with [any OS]" USB 2.0 with larger than 64 GB If it looks Cheap and Crappy. Check the manufacturer. Wrong Names.

[@vwestlife]

FAT32 supports up to 2 TB.

[@krishabm1]

also :*made in CHINA * !

[@moodman1151]

DarklingGolem50 Has written one company name on each side, like sony and Vaio

[@ccricers]

USB 2.0 is enough to make me turn away from this.

[@Mcbebblestin]

As far as I know flash drives are compatible with any OS.

[@markalexander774]

I'm not entirely sure that I would have risked plugging in a USB flash drive that I knew was a scam into my personal computer. Who the fuck knows what could have been on that shit.

[@vwestlife]

That's why I used my impersonal computer.

[@frogsiii]

Savage

[@121gwjolt]

I was just waiting for this to actually be a USB killer, and the back of the packaging would offer overcharged "tech support".

[@vwestlife]

USB killers cost around $60, so if someone was repackaging them into fake USB drives and reselling them for $50, they'd be *LOSING MONEY!*

[@markalexander774]

VWestlife Not if they stole them and/or not if they live in China where literally fucking everything is cheap as shit.

[@kendawa2918]

Thank you for taking the time to work the entire process; and showing us the end result.

[@Nandru85]

I'm more intrigued by that 'sega' branded keyboard than the actual subject of the video... is that normal?

[@vwestlife]

I did a video about the Sega keyboard.

[@DiraNightcore]

Correction, 1TB flash drives that are USB 2.0 are cheap. 1TB flash drives that are USB 3.0 are expensive as fuck. Not all of them are fake.

[@jackwyz22]

+Ame Nightcore ture, but in this case its fake

[@DiraNightcore]

Jack Wang yep

[@CIubDuck]

What the fuck are you talking about? Where did you get that information? That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. There has never, ever been a 1tb 2.0 flash drive. Ever. The first 1tb flash drive was released in 2013, there's literally no point in making a 2.0 drive with 1tb because building a 1tb flash drive is so costly that you might as well make it 3.0. Transferring a 1tb file to a 1tb USB 2.0 stick would take a little over 30 hours.

[@DestinyAwaitsChannel]

+Ame Nightcore Even if this were true, it would still be pointless.

[@DiraNightcore]

Destiny Waits I know there is no point, I am just defending them. I was simply stating they exist.

[@CloroxBleachChannel]

You are using a SEGA keyboard with a DELL computer running iOS X? This video is already a mind fuck

[@macccu]

Thats not OS X. Maybe some windows mod, dunno. The close, minimize, maximize buttons are on wrong side.

[@vwestlife]

customize.org/xpthemes/22658

[@CloroxBleachChannel]

***** it was a joke, relax neckbeard

[@randomyoutubeaccount970]

its windows xp with old mac os buttons skin.

[@Cytroen]

I just realized that you're running Windows XP with a Mac theme installed.

[@thechaindude1320]

That is a windows xp logo 2:17

[@1marcelfilms]

So you got a free flash drive thats pretty neat

[@gmcnewlook]

‍1marcelfilms except this thing you wouldnt want rely on....

[@1marcelfilms]

You could always use it as an extra backup or something you don't really need

[@realgroovy24]

***** "botched together in a shitty village in china" but everything comes from China! generic or not. but Marcel Wolthers Yeah its still a decent flash drive. I'd at least use it as a secondary back up. definitely not a primary back up though.

[@SergeantExtreme]

+‍1marcelfilms No, you couldn't even use it as an extra backup. Anytime you try to write new data to it, it automatically over-writes the old data. You literally could not back up anything to it.

[@AndreasElf]

+‍1marcelfilms Might contain a hidden virus.

[@wolf33b]

sony never make usb case with color green

[@flipnotedude109]

KIRIGAYA KAZUTO its red

[@wolf33b]

I meant the box color

[@SonataLP]

and they don't put an fucking windows logo on the box xD

[@wolf33b]

yep

[@sparticuismoon2802]

KIRIGAYA KAZUTO and doesn't have vio logo.

[@JustJory]

Funny looking at this, because today 1tb flash drives can cost from 30 to 100 dollars.

[@TheNecronons]

free 8gb drive

[@lightningviper2122]

Fork not really the drive is fucked up

[@bitelaserkhalif]

With only 1% chance it'll work later

[@choppinyacht9033]

bro yo computer is so out of date

[@vwestlife]

1.) I don't own an up-to-date computer, and 2.) even if I did, I wouldn't use it to test a counterfeit USB drive.

[@choppinyacht9033]

VWestlife nice vid tho 👌🏼

[@MicroFoxFilms]

why dont you

[@CharlieW]

+Crazy Diamond Look up-> USB Killer

[@vwestlife]

USB killers cost around $60, so if someone was repackaging them into fake USB drives and reselling them for $50, they'd be *LOSING MONEY!*

[@nkextrask.f.4839]

No, that's the Windows XP logo.

[@niklasvfx]

NKextras K.F. yes

[@71.218-westshed]

It's 2023, this scam is still a thing. Saw 1tb USB sticks with stupidly low prices and fake reviews on Amazon. Although now 1tb USB sticks are around 100ish bucks, so this scam is on its last legs

[@retrix9169]

2:17 It's not even the Windows logo only 7 logo Windows XP

[@RonanTetsu]

Retrix English?

[@orangesoda2424]

Jhin I think they meant "it's not even the windows 7 logo, it's the windows xp logo."

[@Prismary]

"That's not the Windows 8 Logo, that's the Windows 7 Logo." No, *that* is the Windows XP Logo.

[@realvivifromloona]

@Watermelon head Comic Well you clearly did since you replied to the comment

[@Elround4]

Wouldn't the odds of something like that being packed full of malware be pretty high?

[@vwestlife]

Elround4 Which is why I only used it on an old Dell, not a good computer.

[@43128lucky4]

+vwestlife that is a good computer, those old optiplecs are awesome if they are set up right with enough ram and modern graphics card

[@realgroovy24]

43128lucky4 Depends on the Optiplex, some of them did have capacitor issues *only* because of the crappy Pentium D or 4 CPU's they used which generated a lot of heat. but they're still good computers otherwise and throw in a Celeron or upgrade heatsink or recap it then the system will last a long time.

[@43128lucky4]

I run old gx620s and a few 745s, three 755s, and one 760. The gx620s are the sff versions with the built in power supplies and they have pentium d 930s and Radeon 5450s, they run insanely hot but after three years constant us with windows 7,8 and now 10 I have not had any heat damage issues. The 700 series machines all have core 2 duos and Radeon 5450s and all form factor types run cool. Overall quite pleased with them and now have htpcs in almost every room and two Of the 700 machines I built up for my parents. All were free or goodwill/eBay/Craigslist scores bought dirt cheep, built up with parts I had lying around. Only thing I paid for was graphics cards and those were on newegg for like 10 bucks a piece with rebates

[@FlyboyHelosim]

So how would this USB drive function in casual and real-world use? I mean it shows up in the file system as 976Gb so obviously Windows thinks it's that size, and under normal use we're not going to be running tests that last days at a time. As there's only practically 8Gb on it, does that mean that once that threshold is reached, existing data would start to be overwritten resulting is file corruption or deletion?

[@vwestlife]

Did you actually watch the video? Because if you did, all of your questions would be answered.

[@FlyboyHelosim]

@@vwestlife Yes I have, twice. But all your testing and opinions are based on running that program and don't necessarily translate the same to a real-world scenario.

[@vwestlife]

I wouldn't trust any of my data to a USB drive sold under false pretenses, with potentially faulty chips in it. But you're certainly free to take that risk if you want to.

[@prizedcoffeecup]

Interesting mod...never knew that Windows XP with a Mac OS skin could work out so gorgeously. Still wish I had a legitimate copy of XP to try this with for the hell of it.

[@lpfdepartmentltd.3523]

you can download the iso file of WinXP. I'll give you a code if you want

[@prizedcoffeecup]

No thanks, I'm good...my only good XP machine failed on me recently anyways.

[@JohnnyBoy-te9lj]

+Titan SixtyNine I'll take it

[@thomase13]

Wow; I would take it!

[@prizedcoffeecup]

***** Already said no thanks, but I appreciate the offer. Forgot to mention that my only XP worthy machine turned out to have a bad motherboard a week later...the Athlon processor still works as well as the RAM and such, but the motherboard is the culprit. I do have a Windows 2000 machine, however this thing has no PCI-e slots and I haven't got any AGP cards that are very strong at all.

[@deathfxu]

He has a Sega keyboard...

[@MrAminalCrackers]

and did you see his monitor? rofl. I am glad to see he didn't plug this potentially dangerous usb drive into a nice computer though.

[@vwestlife]

What's so funny about a 19.6 inch Eizo FlexScan L771 LCD monitor that originally cost $5500 when new in 2001?

[@Ywonova]

AminalCrackers my first thought was why put this counterfeit device in you computer... if they trick computer into thinking the device is 1TB... they can do anything to your computer.in

[@kataccord1968]

2:02 that's not the windows 7 logo, it's the windows xp logo

[@MiniDevilDF]

+Jake Pie whats the difference?

[@kataccord1968]
