How to Install

Extract to a folder.
Add this path to the "PATH" enviroment variable (optional).

How to use

Invoke the command line, change active folder to application location
then run
filler X:

where X: is the drive (or path) to check.

What it does 

Just fills the storage with information (files in 1 GB size), 
and later tries to read this information 
checking if it did not change.

Requirements
It requires .Net 2.0 environment installed and 
fat32 file-system works best, because usually the first sectors in
a media stores the fat32 partition table and this is the place
that usually is working in fakes. So the utility will be able to check
the whole media if the partition table is working as it should.

Other
Because it is using the native file-system for IO it can be compatible
with all the media storages that support file read/write,
such as thumb-drives, sd cards, CD-RW (specially formatted) or HDD.
Any limitations such as .net requirement, absence of GUI or 
performance issues will be worked out in the future 
in case there is interest.
