Hi guys,
This is a question confused me for a long time. As I know, writing a
sector for a hard disk is atomic. That is to say, when we are writing
a sector to hard disk and power failure happen, the sector will be
written completely or not at all.
For NAND flash, I didn't see the atomic guarantee in any material.
Could you please tell me if writing a page for NAND flash is atomic?
This is very important for a transaction based file system.
