Well I decided to buy a 1TB sd card i found on amazon for 20$... taking bets on if it is a scam device or not...

@freemo

Probably is, I've been looking at 1 TB microsd cards for my phone and they go for at least 5 times that.

@kilroy_was_here yea it doesnt add up... but i figure no risk, they tend to refund anyway. Plus its an off brand so may be legit.

@freemo

More likely it is a smaller size, and they figure it takes you too long to figure that out. This has been a practice in Asia since the 1980s, when 40MB harddisks had a compression controller and you could fit 500MB of text on it. Even got a demo in the shop, and people got ripped off badly.

@niclas

Yea that is a typical approach. its quick to figure out if you know what your doing.
