You've checked the stamps and marks, but have you formatted the drive yet? My latest player has a 16gb sticker and marking, but is only an 8gb hack. It didn't show up as such until I formatted the player. Once formatted, I found that half the drive read full all the time. If you haven't formatted yet, then the hacked 8gb side of the flash that doesn't exist, will still read empty, even though the flash is in fact full. Move the files on it back to your computer (it makes it easier to put back on if you keep them together) then use windows to format the flash drive. After formatting, check the properties of the drive before you put the files back on it. If it's hacked it will either show up with the correct capacity, or more likely, show the same (16gb) capacity with half full at all times. Write back and let me know what you find.
