Alright, thanks for clarifying. So to be clear, please update the commit message to say that it's improving performance for multi-block read/write. Then please add also some information about how that is achieved. Moreover, please rename the functions in the code according to this as well, as to make it more clear. For example, use sd_rw_multi() (and sd_rw_single() if that is needed), rather than sd_rw_sequential(). > sd_check_seq() to distinguish sequential RW (CMD 18/25) or normal RW (CMD 17/24) > if the data is sequential call to sd_rw_sequential() I will wait for a v2 from you, then I will give it another try to review.
