How does ScaleFlux deal with large file data sets, like Drone imaging containing very large files?

Category: Hardware compression

The drives are block devices. A large file sent to the drive gets divided up into 4KB blocks for compression (invisible to the user) and written to the NAND. RAW formant video / images are compressible. Drone imaging that has already been compressed with a video or image compression codec will not see much residual compression.
