There are two ways we want to access file system written on NAND flash: 1 Through PC PC will make use of the file system using mass storage driver. 2 Through device itself Device (uC) should be able to access read/write files from NAND flash. Hope I have given the answers you are looking at. If not please free to ask.

Can you please explain the type of NAND flash you want to use? Is this raw flash chips? Or is this a NAND memory 'card' of some type like listed above?
