Last time I bought "high capacity" chips (but not that high, I think
it was 8 or 16MB), I did it on AliExpress. Minimum batch of ten.
Have you tried there?<br>

<div>Hello<br>
<br>
I would like to replace the flash chip with something
larger, to add a minimal linux distribution and test some
security ideas. <br>
<br>
</div>
I selected a few chips based on flashrom support, but I
can't find any of them on my usual websites.<br>
</div>
<div>On ebay, I can't find them in SOIC8 package. Yet IIRC,
someone did that with a x60 running coreboot (just can't
find the URL at the moment). Hopefully that person is even
on the list!<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
Would you have a recommended source to get 2 or 3 of them?<br>
<br>
</div>
ideally: M25P128
<div><br>
possible:<br>
MX25L128 05D<br>
N25Q128.3E<br>
W25Q128.V<br>
<br>
(because non-volatile write bit chips are produced by Macronix
and Winbond)<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Thanks<br>
