 Was going through the FDS library in nRF SDK. It seems to be tightly coupled with fstorage library at the back end to access the internal flash via softdevice(nrf_fstorage_sd) or without softdevice(nrf_fstorage_nvmc). Looks like same cannot be used</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 24 Jan 2024 06:49:16 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/107521/can-fds-type-of-file-system-be-used-with-qspi-external-flash-in-nrf52840-using-sdk17-1-0" /><item><title>RE: Can FDS type of file system be used with QSPI external flash, in nrf52840 using SDK17.1.0?</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/465707?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 24 Jan 2024 06:49:16 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:545f8673-94ab-44fd-aeb7-b00a52f235d8</guid><dc:creator>SG1</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thankyou Edvin for the reply.&lt;/p&gt;

[quote user=""]I just read &lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/62948/using-flash-data-storage-library-with-nrf52840-external-memory-connected-through-the-qspi-as-backend/256713"&gt;this &lt;/a&gt;post which says that new functions need to be added to FDS library and new backend needs to be written to access qspi flash.[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;That seems about right. We don&amp;#39;t have any official support for this. I am not aware of anything, but perhaps if you look around for it here on DevZone, you may find something similar, but I am not aware of anyone who has posted a working proposal for this.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Edvin&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
