f3fix failure

[buteman]

I have been checking a Fake Flash drive for a friend. It claims to be 1.1 TB but is only about 30 GB. F3fix does set the partition to the right value but the stick still reports as 1.1 TB and will accept any number of files most of which it just dumps.

f3fix "fixes" the drive by creating a partition within the good sectors. So to use the fixed drive, one must only use that partition. Changing what a drive reports requires reprogramming it. Reprogramming is sometimes possible, but it's outside the scope of F3.
