Not really, it's exactly 1/8 of a megabyte!spawn844 said:SirTempest said:afair one block is 128kbyte
Thats an odd amount:/
^^That is the definitive math thereThe NAND flash device is divided into 4096 blocks of 8 clusters. Each cluster is 8 pages. Each page is 2048 bytes of data and 64 bytes of "spare data"
Thanx for that info. I had always wanted to know the constraints with the file writing to blocks.also, you can only store up to 8 different files on 1 block, even if they are only 1 byte each.
prolly not. The DSi, if I believe, has a diff block size than the Wii.Does "blocks" on 3DS are same size as 128KB ?
This is correct there are 4096 blocks of 128KB making up the 512MB NAND its on wiibrew
It's like trying to say one or the other definition of "billion" is wrong (one thousand million and one million million are both valid definitions).
*facepalm* You really don't know your numbers. 1,000,000*1,000,000 and 1,000,000*1,000 are NOT the same thing.Not really. The original terms remain ambiguous and are generally better understood in context rather than unilaterally based on a single definition which has never been imposed on all usages. It's clearer to say "512 MiB", but "512 MB" isn't wrong just because it's possible to use the wrong definition. It's like trying to say one or the other definition of "billion" is wrong (one thousand million and one million million are both valid definitions). Throw in lack of interest in/adoption of the new terms, and the situation is far less clear than "megabyte no, mebibyte yes".
