Doesn't that format RD53s and RD54s slightly sub-optimally?
I don't know, does it? I don't know much about
the low level formatting,
but a project I have in mind for the future will mean I need to learn a
*lot* more about it.
Yes it does. It formats at a different interleave level than the
RQDX3 using the bootable uVAX-II diags. This results in lower data
transfer rates on the RQDX3.
It will *work*, though.
