Post subject:  SD Card utility

I think I may have asked this before, but does anyone know of a utility for SD/MicroSD etc that will show the controller and NAND ID? similar to chipeasy/getinfo/chipgenius. These utils show the laptop card reader controller but not the actual SD controller.
It would save ripping them apart straight away, and be handy on monoliths to save wiring up just to ID the insides.

I haven't read the spec too closely, but if there isn't one, and it is in the SD spec to be able to poll both, I will write one.

Same question from me.

I have not come across such a program.. The problem with monoliths is that often the MCU or its associated electronics have failed. so its not in a position to answer to SDIO commands anyway.

For those that do answer, i use a FC1306T bridge and id it over ATA.. Usually you get some sort of inclination as to what controller is inside.

I am not mainly wanting it for faulty ones, as I would recover standard way.

I would like it so I could detect what the NAND and Controllers are for working devices so I could choose which SD Cards to write patterns to that will help figure out scrambler and Mix.

For example, if someone had a SM2685 based card, which can often be an epoxied or COB controller, with a 98 de 89 92 NAND and needed the patterns.. I could test each one of my research SD's (I have many) and choose which ones I should take dumps from... without ripping them all apart and reading them all.
