Lightbulb 650GB Pen Drive


Hey Guys,

I know this sounds unbelievable but its true, one of my office friend got it from Bangkok. Best part is he got i for Rs. 2000/- only

The only problem is it does not recognizes any format except movie files

Anyways, lemme know if u guys know any high capacity drives available in Mumbai.

650GB Pen Drive !!! And it won't recognize any format other than movie files.

ROFLMAO !!!

As said in the earlier post as well, Prove it by Posting some Pics of the Drive & show us the Disk Properties as well.

If that is true, then the "Pen Drive" File System is Corrupted. My PEN Drive which got corrupted was once detected by Seagate Disk Utility as 2TB drive(yes ... 2 Terabyte), when the actual capacity was 1GB.

Your friend must have mistaken the pen drive's model number for its capacity!!! And what's this about only recognizing movie files??? Why the hell does a 'pen drive' need to 'recognize' the data to be stored on it??

Yep File System would have been corrupted. My friend's pen drive showed some 13 TB and was going on increasing.

I have seen ridiculous capacity pen drives. There must be some kind of trick to report the huge size in Windows. It cannot be 650GB.

Have you tried copying any files larger than 30GB? I am sure it wont take it.

^^ 30Gb?

For 2k rupees (anywhere in the world), max we can get is 16Gb of flash memory.

@israramrelia

Cool down, we didn't want to hurt you, but that is an impossible thing. That is the reason we asked you / your friend for proof. As you posted a lot in this thread, we thought you will have the patience to post the proof as well. Anyway, no worries.

Well, poor guy, might be showing wrong size as its corrupted.

I doubt there's even a 650Gb solid state HDD[there maybe], forget pen drive.

Put 5 128Gb solid state HDD's in a stack and voila, you have a 640Gb solid state drive
