Hardware fraud Memes

Ah, the classic "2TB for $7" eBay special! What we're seeing here is the digital equivalent of buying a "Rolax" watch from a guy in an alley. The VP's bargain USB drive claims to be 2.1TB but the validation software reveals it's actually 7.3GB - about 0.35% of the advertised capacity. These scam drives are modified to report a fake capacity to your computer while actually containing a fraction of the storage. They'll happily let you "save" files beyond their real capacity, but those files just vanish into the digital void. Like trying to pour a gallon of water into a shot glass and wondering where it all went. Nothing quite says "executive decision-making" like a VP who thinks storage technology follows the same pricing model as ramen noodles. At least the validation software delivered the bad news before any important company files went to digital heaven!
