Being somewhat familiar with the fact that there are a number of counterfeitSD-cards on Amazon that claim a capacity, but exhibit write errors or'looping back around' behavior when you try to actually use the full claimedcapacity of the card, I wanted to verify that new SD cards I buy actuallyare their claimed size. More than that, I want proof that if I put a uniqueset of data on there that uses up the full capacity, that the sameunique set of data can be retrieved later – proof that the card isboth legitimate, and not exhibiting bad sectors / manufacturer defects.

I use Mac OS X, and the easiest way to do this was with the tool f3.You can find the official site here

You'll need to be familiar with using Terminal, too.

To start, you'll want to install the HomeBrew or MacPorts package managers.This is fairly straightforward, so google's your friend here.

Next,

brew install f3

or,

port install f3

Depending on which package manager you like. I chose HomeBrew.

As of writing, the HomeBrew package is at version 7.0 and has the toolsf3write and f3read. Curiously the f3probe tool is missing, but youdon't necessarily need it to just verify an SD card.

To start verifying your card, plug it in, and run the following:

Capacity Max System

df -h

Which yields something like this:

$ df -hFilesystem Size Used Avail Capacity iused ifree %iused Mounted on/dev/disk1 811Gi 778Gi 33Gi 96% 5089882 4289877397 0% /devfs 345Ki 345Ki 0Bi 100% 1194 0 100% /devmap -hosts 0Bi 0Bi 0Bi 100% 0 0 100% /netmap auto_home 0Bi 0Bi 0Bi 100% 0 0 100% /home/dev/disk2s2 1.0Ti 980Gi 43Gi 96% 7458248 4287509031 0% /Volumes/Time Machine Backups/dev/disk3s1 119Gi 7.8Mi 119Gi 1% 62 975218 0% /Volumes/Untitled

Now, it's up to you to carefully pick the disk that you just plugged in.If you aren't sure, unplug it, and run df -h to see what's still there,plug back in, and run df -h to see what appears. Be 100% sure that thecapacity of the drive looks right – we wouldn't want to trash one ofyour real drives here!

In this case, I see that /dev/disk3s1 (the system-level specifier for this drive)is about the same size as my claimed 128gb drive – 119Gi under Avail.That's mounted at /Volumes/Untitled (i.e. the place I go in the filesystemto interact with the volume).

Now, I can actually verify the drive with f3 by first writing data to it:

$ f3write /Volumes/UntitledF3 write 7.0Copyright (C) 2010 Digirati Internet LTDA.This is free software; see the source for copying conditions.Free space: 119.05 GBCreating file 1.h2w ...

And now, let's confirm that the data was written correctly by reading itback:

And, that's good – can safely store media on this for the next big adventure!
