When using FDS, does it matter if I keep update one single file?

[RJ Fang]

Hi everyone,

I am using NRF52840 and I want to keep updating a timestamp number into flash memory. My solution is to create a file and keep updating that single file.

Is there any shorcomings if I keep updating that one single file? Will it damage a certain area of the flash?

Thank you for your help in advance!

Best regards.

Hi,

It's perfectly fine to reuse the same File ID. It's just and ID that can be used for lookup/event filtering. It does not impact how or where the data records get stored to flash by FDS.
