How is Memory Allocation in M3 PDAs divided by between ROM and RAM?

 

M3 GREEN 128MB RAM / 256MB ROM

The 128MB RAM is divided up between REAL MEMORY for running applications and NON persistent Storage Space. This can be adjusted using the M3 Green Memory Slider Bar found in the control panel.

The 256MB ROM is Persistent storage. Approx 64 MB is used to HOLD and LOAD the Operating System. The remaining 192 MB is available under the /Flash disk Folder as PERSISTENT Storage.

 

M3 SKY, MM3 128MB RAM / 256MB ROM

The 128MB RAM is REAL program memory used for running applications. The 256MB ROM is divided between storage space, persistent storage and OS Files. The breakup is as follows

OS files - WM5.0: 40MB     WM6.1: 64MB

Storage - WM5.0: 80MB     WM6.1: 44MB

Flash Disk = ROM size – (OS+Storage) = 140MB

All STORAGE and FLASH DISK is PERSISTENT. The only difference is a CLEAN BOOT will ERASE Storage but leave FLASH DISK intact.

 

M3 ORANGE 256MB RAM / 1GB ROM

ROM (1GB) = BOOT(1MB) + Kernel image(67MB) + Kernel filesystem(60MB) + User filesystem(870MB)

Simply, OS (WM6.5) is around 70MB, Device space = 60MB, Flash Disk = remained space.

 

M3 T 256MB RAM / 256MB (1GB) ROM

ROM (256MB) = OS (56MB) + Flash Disk (180MB)
