 I have a custom board with an nRF52833 and a W25Q512JVEIQ, which communicate over SPI (not QSPI). I successfully accessed the W25Q512JVEIQ (executed my own read and write commands).

&lt;p&gt;You should not have to make any code changes to test this sample on your board. It should be sufficient to add a devictree overlay similar to&amp;nbsp;the&amp;nbsp;nrf52840dk_nrf52840.overlay. The flash device shall be placed in one of your SPI nodes.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]My next goal is to use the W25Q512JVEIQ external flash memory as USB mass storage. I reviewed the &lt;code&gt;samples/subsys/usb/mass&lt;/code&gt; sample and am trying to adapt it to my project. While researching an issue, I came across an old &lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/support/add/While%20researching%20an%20issue,%20I%20came%20across%20an%20old%20discussion%20where%20it%20was%20mentioned%20that%20the%20nRF5%20SDK%20did%20not%20include%20any%20application%20for%20SPI%20flash"&gt;discussion &lt;/a&gt;where it was mentioned that the nRF5 SDK did not include any application for SPI flash. Is this still true? In this example, &lt;code&gt;samples/subsys/usb/mass&lt;/code&gt; uses QSPI. Can I switch to SPI and use it without issues[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;SPI NOR is also supported in the nRF Connect SDK.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
