Talk:Flash translation layer

Oops, I typo'd my edit comment. "Flash translation layer" describes the functionality provided by a Flash memory controller, not a Flash filesystem. A flash filesystem maps (e.g. NAND) flash semantics to filesystem semantics. A flash memory controller maps flash semantics to block-device semantics. It is the latter functionality that is referred to as flash translation. Ben (talk) 00:22, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

I fixed the implication that Sandisk participated in human trafficking in 2006 by purchasing people named M-Systems, but this article probably should be a redirect somewhere useful. This title implies you'll learn what how and where a Flash Translation Layer is, but all you'll find is that M-Systems made a poorly-named FTL and was purchased by Sandisk in 2006. 108.46.51.183 (talk) 00:28, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
 * The former FTL page was so off-topic and unhelpful that I've boldly redirected rather than merge. I won't be offended if anyone can rescue content and use elsewhere, but I couldn't see its use. Klbrain (talk) 20:37, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
