Yes, in a way. As long as it is not full, old blocks will not be overwritten if you add new data. But if you change old data like a new version of a Word document/template or whatever, the old info will be wiped and the new written (changed). And this only works for a limited number of writing events.

This one of mine is not even half full of squirrels, so I guess you mean that once it's full then I can only change the squirrels for new ones a limited number of times?
Yes. However if you keep it at 50 percent data volume, and often change the existing 50 percent, it will also fail after the critical number has been reached. It really depends on how often you change/rewrite existing data.
