Having larger storage will also allow for more graphical objects, ability to store images for NFTs and design a better user experience. External Flash Memory will be used to store non-secure applications only and will never store private keys associated with cryptocurrency accounts. All communications between Secure Microcontroller and the off-chip flash memory will be handled through OTF (On the Fly) encryption, which means data that exits microcontroller through the communication interface will be already encrypted and when retrieved will be decrypted in the microcontroller. AES keys are stores in the microcontroller and will never leave the secure domain. ## Storage Spec: * **Capacity:** 16 MBytes * **Type:** Non-Volatile Flash --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.citadelwallet.io/wallet-spec/hardware-spec/storage.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
