Beware of cheap 16GB MS Pro Duo for PSP

In China, you can get a 16GB Sony Memory Stick Pro Duo (Mark 2 series) for less than $90, but beware, there will be some problems for certain so called 16GB capacity. It's not like the fake or modified MS Pro Duo, it's a combination of 2 units 8GB memory chips into a single MS Pro Duo Package.

The first chip is performing quite well at about 10MB/s Read and Write Speed, but the second chip is actually a real slow speed chip at 2MB/s Read/Write. Imagine the amount of time to copy a 1GB file, with the 2MB/s write speed, it takes 500 seconds or 8.33 minutes. To fill the 8GB fully, there is more than 1 hour.

Comparing this with the Real Sony 16GB MS Pro Duo price, you get what you pay for.
