Comparison between versions

edit

can we get a comparison between versions in a table or something like that. Thank you.--2001:569:72B8:8400:E1FB:FFD0:8E0E:D693 (talk) 02:53, 14 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Potential confusion with Unix File System?

edit

People could potentially come across the UFS filesystem, try searching for 'ufs', find this page, and mistake it to be about the filesystem. (I did.)

Would a "not to be confused with" template of some sort be helpful. If so, what would be the best template, or the best way of phrasing that?

The best I can think of would be something like: "This article is about the flash storage interface specification. For the filesystem with the same initials, see Unix File System".

This is a real issue. People are confusing the two initialisms and not realizing there are two rather distinct technical things with the initials "UFS" (got a report elsewhere). 207.172.210.101 (talk) 06:38, 12 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
 Done. It sounds like you want the {{Distinguish}} template, so I added it as a WP:Hatnote. --DavidCary (talk) 21:19, 18 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Time to start placing more emphasis on history

edit

Unless the Nintendo Switch 2 crashes soon, UFS Card will be stillborn. The Nintendo Switch 2 is pushing usage of MicroSD-express so heavily you'll soon see the cards everywhere. Once MicroSD-express has economy of scale, those producers will then aim to create an embedded version of NVMe (trying to gain yet further market share). Once that shows up UFS will be in trouble. I think it is time to start writing an epitaph, though we'll have to wait 5 years before adding it to the article. 2001:470:8AC4:103:56A7:7DB:3167:F954 (talk) 04:16, 12 June 2025 (UTC)Reply

Unclear sentence

edit

The last sentence of the first paragraph makes no sense to me. Maybe a rewording would help: "The standard encompasses both packages permanently embedded (via ball grid array package) within a device (eUFS), and removable UFS memory cards." Which "both"? Which "packages"? Possibly, some punctuation is missing too. Maybe someone with a better understanding can help. Virolino (talk) 11:35, 8 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
