But I have an excuse because I'd just came from a party that time... :-)) But still the device died well before the requested abount of wata was written :-))
In fact, as I've tried to play with it today I see that 1GB of data (64 blocks) kills the device with 100% probability. I've tried to write 4 16Mb-blocks and it worked 2 times out 3. Then I've tried 1 block and it also died randomly, but quite a bit less frequently (say 1 of 10 times). With regard to differencies in behaviour between the GL devices -- it might be a consequence of differencies in the exact chip models and/or firmware versions. My device identifies itself as "P: Vendor=05e3 ProdID=0702 Rev= 0.02" On the chip reads: GL811E 0341MH2QT-02 Btw, what about getting in contact with Genesys Logic and asking for a datashit or support of some sort? Did anybody ever tried that?
