Can a USB Flash drive wrongly show its memory capacity higher than actual in its properties window.I am telling of showing 2GB memory pendrive which actualy not storing more than 1GB. Some vendors selling high capacity flashdrive having actualy low memory in this way. Is this possible?

No you could no longer, RAM and cabinet area are particularly some issues, a USB stick could in simple terms provide you extra cabinet area, no longer the extra Ram which you will play the sport. in case you pick extra Ram needed is a robust website, and it's going to examine your pc so which you get the the main suitable option Ram.

a very minor part of the USB drive is used for storing driver related files which are usually hidden.. that shoudnt take up more than 500 kb. check to make sure you have the correct drivers installed

well, its because windows is actually using some of the memory in the flash disk.. i think 500k per 1byte so if you have 10gb, then the computer will only show 9.5gb..
