The purpose of this driver is to run emFile for test and simulation purposes on a PC running Windows.

Supported hardware

This driver is compatible with use any Windows logical driver on a Windows NT system.
Be aware, that Win9X is not supported, because it cannot access logical drives with "CreateFile".

Theory of operation

Since emFile currently only supports FAT and EFS file system. NTFS logical drives cannot be accessed by emFile. It can be used either to store/access files on a floppy disk or using an USB-Card reader for accessing flash cards.

Fail safe operation

Although not important since the driver is not designed to be used in an embedded device, the data is normally safe. Data safety is handled by the underlying operating system and hardware.

Wear leveling

The driver does not need wear leveling.
