Minimizing flash wear

To optimize the flash lifespan further, apply any of the following measures:

  • Increase the partition size: Larger partitions provide more blocks for write distribution.
  • Increase the record count: A higher CONFIG_APP_STORAGE_MAX_RECORDS_PER_TYPE value reduces the rewrite frequency.
  • Use the RAM backend when possible: If data persistence is not critical, use the RAM backend to avoid flash writes entirely.
