I originally theorized that the SS2 would use paged Word access as there are simply not enough address lines to address all 256mb provided. I have analyzed the bus and briefly studied the outcome, it does indeed appear to be paged word access and the control lines appear to do what you would expect them to do. I never documented any of this further as I managed to kill my NAND console attempting something else. I never built any hardware or wrote any software to interface with this but yes, It is quite possible to flash using this interface. One would assume that is how Sony flashes them at factory, hence the test-points. Edit: I don't know why I stated that I have flashed via the SS2, this is not correct. I had however, at that stage recorded reads and a firmware flash over the SS2. These dumps were only somewhat useful as my analyzer simply wasn't capable of handling that much I/O at those speeds.
