NFT introduces the block attribute configuration feature in this release. The feature enables configuration of block attributes inside the dump file, with two supported attributes at present: Bad Block and SLC Block.

1. Bad Block: Once a block is designated as a bad block, it will be omitted in all subsequent processing.
This provides a convenient solution for data block misalignment issues occurring in separation, assembly and synchronization workflows.

2. SLC Block: If a block is assigned the SLC block attribute, special parsing logic will be applied to its data.
This substantially improves file integrity and precision, drastically cuts down conflict replacement blocks, and prioritizes the latest data blocks.
It reduces manual analysis workload and boosts processing efficiency.

Both Bad Blocks and SLC Blocks support automatic detection.

Sounds smart. Am I correct in assuming that in general latest data blocks will be the SLC ones?

The latest data is most probably stored in SLC blocks. Besides, our research shows that SLC blocks also hold some other critical data.
