Right now i have about 90% of the card full, its benchmarking as fast as my 512mb card give or take 1-2%

I just ran pocket mechanic and the read and write test is fine.

hmm.

Now.. what to do?
The serial numbers should absolutely be different. The serials are unique for each model and card. If you goto the SanDisk website, and look at a shot of their 4GB product, it looks different. There is no arrow, and the Class 2 certification logo is in a different spot. As for your experience with the card, yes, it will most likely fail. A friend of mine bought a fake 2GB Ultra II CF card, and it worked for a while, formatted, etc. After a couple of weeks, he lost over 150 pictures as the device began to fail. So, if you can, please check that serial to see if it matches mine. It shouldn't.
