Testing removable media

Hey folks,
I wanted to ask a quick and dirty question:
What would you consider a "Stress" test of removable media like USB Keys
& SD/SDHC cards?
I'm working on enhancing a script and so far, the only idea put forth
was to do multiple simultaneous read/writes (like 100 at a time). But is
that a realistic stress test for something meant to be small, light but
with a very slow transfer speed?
Or would it be more appropriate to do something more realistic like,
transfer increasingly large files up to a pre-determined size (perhaps a
2GB file size max?)
Cheers,
Jeff
