Well, Thomasz was talking not about the transport I believe. If you have a
raw flash access via SATA or USB, then this is handled on the driver level
and does not any require FS support. JFFS2 or UBIFS may also work with such a
device, because it is just raw flash. But I know that you know that most of
the FTL-enabled stuff does not give use raw flash access.
