Strangely enough, no... according to Samsung's own part number decoder, the
K9F1G08U0A in the EA LPC 2468 is SLC. Funny, I could have sworn it did
explicitly prohibit overwrites, but the datasheet - which I've just gone
back and checked - doesn't explicitly permit or prohibit overwrites.
Nevertheless I stand by my point - I think it would be foolish to design a
system targetting NAND that could never work with MLC chips.
