1.1.4 Embedded Flash File System
The embedded flash file system is an integral part of
SATA NANDrive. It contains MCU firmware that
performs the following tasks:
1. Translates host side signals into flash media
writes and reads
2. Provides flash media wear leveling to spread the
flash writes across all memory address space to
increase the longevity of flash media
3. Keeps track of data file structures
4. Manages system security for the selected
