TMS320C6748: which filesystem supports 16T SATA

Genius 13655 points
Part Number: TMS320C6748


Hello Champs,

The sata example in psp uses RTFS filesystem which supports up to 32bit LBA (2T), which filesystem could support upto 16T sata?

Thanks.
Best Regards

  • Hello Shine,

    There is no SATA driver in PRSDK and PSP is fairly old so unfortunately our expertise on this subject is limited.

    From opensource.com/.../ext4-filesystem

    Ext3 filesystems used 32-bit addressing, limiting them to 2 TiB files and 16 TiB filesystems (assuming a 4 KiB blocksize; some ext3 filesystems use smaller blocksizes and are thus limited even further).
    Ext4 uses 48-bit internal addressing, making it theoretically possible to allocate files up to 16 TiB on filesystems up to 1,000,000 TiB (1 EiB).

  • hi Sahin,

    I want to use ext4 instead of RTFS in the DSP/BIOS system. The SATA driver still uses BIOSPSP_01_30_01. The chip I use is TMS320C6748. How should I achieve this? Please give me some suggestions. It would be better if you had the appropriate reference.


    Thanks.
