Solve : Enter exFAT?

Answer»

Microsoft's New file system that can theoretically support up to 16exbi-bytes 

And it is be faster at read/write than the old FAT32.

This will be used for future Flash cards, the new SanDisk will be SDXC that will have 2TB of storage and a possible 300Mbps transfer rate.

I wouldn't see this used in cameras(or even phones) for a good few years.

Linkwhat do you mean, "will"

it ALREADY exists...How can it be new if I read about in February 2008?

Actually, the link is about a "new" (January 2009) memory card format (SDXC) which uses Microsoft's "new" (January 2008) exFAT file system. There's no word on when SDXC-compatible devices and cards will go on sale.


Wow....time sure flies...Sorry, correcting.

Just wanted to SHARE it with you guys...Wow...more space than my computer...*censored*. I know, I was kinda blown away from it, but I really dont see this reaching consumers for a good number of years, would be very expensive  Quote from: macdad- on May 12, 2009, 07:38:58 PM

But I mean, some iPods have more space than my computer...some have over 3 times the total space. Quote from: Helpmeh on May 14, 2009, 06:00:06 AM

Thats why they should make Ipod's more hackable(with say ILinux) Quote from: macdad- on May 14, 2009, 04:53:40 PM

Really? That I have to see.if you guys knew a *censored* thing about the SNES you would know that that would never work. Quote from: BC_Programmer on May 16, 2009, 10:42:37 PM

I have a regular NES, but I doubt it would work on that... ...

sigh. the SNES is NOT a PC. the hardware and software specifications are completely different from any other system.

Besides- windows 3.1 requires DOS, DOS is an operating system, and the SNES works directly OFF of ROM, so it doesn't HAVE a boot cycle to ANY OS. Same story for NES as far as running off of ROM.

So, you consider, "well, we can try to adapt windows to run in ROM" Not a feasible solution; windows, and DOS, in general assume that people have some form of disk drive. the only way to facilitate that would be through SRAM. except that even the largest SRAM chips generally hold less then 80KB- usually only 16KB.

Even so, DOS would need to be completely rewritten in order to even run on an SNES; since the SNES has a completely different set of specifications, including endian format as well as memory LAYOUT (and in the case of the NES bank mappings) Unfortunately the DOS source code isn't exactly available, and even if it was over 50% of it is assembly and difficult to either understand, and in the case it is understood, change.Helpmeh "censors" the word "*censored*"?
