Types of storage media

Although best for NAND devices, ETFS also supports other types of embedded storage media through the use of driver classes as follows:

Class CRC ECC Wear-leveling erase Wear-leveling read Cluster size
NAND 512+16 Yes Yes Yes Yes 1K
NAND 2048+64 Yes Yes Yes Yes 2K
RAM No No No No 1K
SRAM Yes No No No 1K
NOR Yes No Yes No 1K
Note: Although ETFS can support NOR flash, we recommend instead the FFS3 filesystem (devf-*), which is designed explicitly for NOR flash devices.
