This is the app I was thinking of: https://fightflashfraud.wordpress.com/do...sh-memory/ I would agree, likely not counteerfeit, but this app will definitely run them thru their paces and ensure you have the amount of storage advertised.
I use the default formatting settings on sd formatter, which, based on what I read in the manual, preserves the original settings for the card. Honestly, I've never had to dig into format settings past that as I've never had any issues, so others may have better recommendations for the settings if thats the tool you use. Its definitely geared towards sd cards, and recommended over other utilities, but you also need to consider the source: https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/index.html
Some would say more is always better, but if you load, for instance, the 32 gb image for android, and then look at your storage stats, you are left with a fair amount of usable storage. More can never hurt, I guess, but its not like you're left with only a couple mb to work with.
