Scams everywhere

I mentioned a dodgy hard drive on Amazon a few days ago which transpired to be nothing more than a fraud.

This board's firmware has been modified so that each of these cards reports its capacity as "15.0TB" to the operating system, for a total of 30TB, even though the actual capacity of the cards is much lower.

Computer Clan has covered products like the above in great detail. The main advice is never buy a no-name brand product.
