usb-devices Look for your drive by capacity or manufacturer name. The output includes T: Bus=... (interface type) and S: SerialNumber=... . However, it still relies on the device's self-reporting. To see the actual storage parameters (not just USB descriptors):

Read the first 1MB of raw data and extract readable strings:

udevadm info --query=all --name=/dev/sdX | grep -i "ID_MODEL\|ID_REVISION\|ID_SERIAL_SHORT" Fake drives modify their controller's response to lsusb . However, they cannot hide the internal manufacturing strings embedded in the raw NAND flash. This is the closest Linux equivalent to ChipGenius's "deep scan."

Here are the three most effective methods: The lsusb command lists USB buses and devices. To get chip details, use the -v (verbose) flag.
