I have a [free] "fake" 8GB flash drive that 'd like to reformat correctly. The controller is a MW6208E but the chip ID's incorrectly. I have several programs to reformat correctly but I can't figure out the true capacity. The only markings on the meory chip are "M8XJ2P73QH" Anyone know who made that chip or its capacity? Thank you.

The memory chip's p/n is probably fake, too.
This is the software that the author recommends for testing the capacity of the pen drive:

Could even be a broken Jscript on the page. In Firefox and IE6 it still redirects as of right now, but turn of JS or go to Hi security in IE6 I can see your page. Yes searchacross needs to be in "hosts" for sure. Hard to keep up with all the garbage out there.
Good looking page. I hate using web authoring tools that add soo much script and ads that debugging becomes a nightmare. Notepad and a few tags do just fine for me and I sruce up as I go.
Thanks for the info. I have a SD card that used to be a 2G until I formatted it in my old camera. Now it's a 1G and no utility I have tried will make it a 2G again. I could have sent it back to K'ston but it would have cost me shipping.
A little off topic; I had a small page on a free server but they would add more and more java script for all kinds of advertising and finally popovers. My answer was to put a java redirect at the top of the page to another free server. If the viewer left JS off, no problem. If they turned it on, no problem.
JB Inscribed thus:
You should be able to reformat that back to its full size.
