## Data Fields

uint32_t | identifier
| Block identifier, must be BlockType::DataBlock.
uint16_t | type
| Logical data classification (value from DataType).
uint16_t | compression
| Compression algorithm used (value from CompressionType).
uint32_t | sectorSize
| Size in bytes of each logical sector represented in this block.
uint32_t | cmpLength
| Size in bytes of the compressed payload immediately following this header.
uint32_t | length
| Size in bytes of the uncompressed payload resulting after decompression.
uint64_t | cmpCrc64
| CRC64-ECMA of the compressed payload (cmpLength bytes).
uint64_t | crc64
| CRC64-ECMA of the uncompressed payload (length bytes).

## Detailed Description

Header preceding the compressed data payload of a data block (BlockType::DataBlock).

Invariants:

- cmpLength > 0 unless length == 0 (empty block)
- length == 0 implies cmpLength == 0
- If compression == CompressionType::None then cmpLength == length
- length % sectorSize == 0

Validation strategy (recommended for readers):

1. Verify identifier == BlockType::DataBlock.
2. Verify sectorSize is non-zero and a power-of-two or a commonly used size (512/1024/2048/4096/2352).
3. Verify invariants above and CRCs after (de)compression.
