Thanks to the amazing support of this community I have a system writing to external FLASH and communicating via BLE.
I was looking to understand the memory map of the NRF52840 (non mBed) and how I might write a few bytes to the internal 1Mb FLASH. This way I can be assured that when I format my external 2MB Flash, I can maintain some persistent preferences.
I understand the internal is used for program memory but some should be available for the user.
