<p>The invention relates to a method and apparatus for processing a sequential file stored in a block-type memory device. In the present invention, it has surprisingly been found out that by storing metadata (106) associated with said sequential file in that memory block of said block-type memory device which contains an ending location (104) of payload data (103), the write operation associated with the update of said sequential file needs in nearly all situations to be directed to only one memory block of the memory device, said memory block being the memory block containing the ending location of the payload data.</p> |
