my project has two devices external flash & thumb drive. i have to format external flash with FAT16 and than copy files from thumb drive to Flash and vice-versa.

we have thought of using K20P6472SF1 microcontroller.

1. is it feasible w/o RTOS?

2. any application note describing formatting external memory having flexbus interface?

3. what is the chunk size we read/write from thumb drive?

thanks in advance.

I've just got FatFs (open source FAT file system) running over top of an SD card driver from Erich Styger (mcuoneclipse.com). FatFs needs about 5 or so functions that perform basic disk I/O in order to work. You have to write disk_initialize, disk_read (read a sector), disk_write (write a sector), and disk_ioctl (various control operations). You might start with Erich's SD code and take it from there.
