Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a write-once storage device. In one arrangement, the storage device comprises write-once memory adapted to store data files, re-writable memory that contains a file access table, and a device controller that is configured to control operation of the storage device. In use, the storage device can be used to receive data to be stored from a host device, store the data within write-once memory of the storage device, and update a file access table stored in re-writable memory of the storage device so as to emulate a re-writable storage card.
