Chinese flash drives.

[devnull]

Stumbled upon dhgate ads for flash drives at insane prices. For example:

512GB Rs. 1000 - Wholesale 512GB USB flash memory drives USB 2.0 storage metal good gift, Free shipping, $9.93-11.2/Piece | DHgate

Lots more here Wholesale USB Flash Drives - Buy Cheap USB Flash Drives from USB Flash Drives Wholesalers | DHgate

These are all fake right? Loopy drives that overwrite old data when you add new data to them? Probably no more than 2GB real storage capacity in them.

Anyone tried these?
