That looks correct. The company seems to have problems with identity:

# hdparm -i /dev/hda

/dev/hda:

Model=SunDisk SD35B-64, FwRev=vcb 1.45, SerialNo=MT311213748 Config={ HardSect NotMFM Fixed DTR>10Mbs nonMagnetic } RawCHS=490/8/32, TrkSize=0, SectSize=576, ECCbytes=4 BuffType=DualPort, BuffSize=1kB, MaxMultSect=1, MultSect=1 CurCHS=490/8/32, CurSects=125440, LBA=yes, LBAsects=125440 IORDY=no
PIO modes: pio0 pio1
DMA modes:
AdvancedPM=no

(that's a traditional 3.5" ATA flash device).

Yes, the company changed its name (at the urging of Sun IIRC).

Someone should probably add a comment to that effect. Even some recently purchased units use the old spelling.

Not an issue since at the change from SunDisk to SanDisk, the updated the identify page of the device to correspond to a flash signature.
