I tested one of the black 2GB devices with an F3 7.1 sensor. The device reports that it is "genuine" (see below). However, cannot reliably write to it with Etcher (writing seems to go smoothly, but ends up failing checksum verification). SO mixed reviews. This is genuine but useless to create a bootable USB drive image. F3 Verifier output: Good news: The /dev/sda device is genuine. device geometry. Size used: 1.88 GB (3932,160 blocks).
