 Tested using default settings for each benchmark, random reads/writes, unless otherwise specified. In particular, this means that the file seeking cache is enabled by default on BlocksDS, which requires explicit opt-in from the homebrew program.
+===== Flashcart errata =====
+==== Last sector access crash ====
+Some flashcarts crash upon trying to access the final sector of the microSD card. This generally appears to affect R4/Ace3DS and their clones.
+Workaround: Partition your card in such a way as to leave a few kilobytes/megabytes of space unused at the end.
+Reproduced on:
+  * R4 Revolution
+  * Gateway Blue
