=== Checksum Block (`CKSM`)
This block stores an array of checksums corresponding to the user data embedded in the image.
For media formats such as CompactDisc, the checksum is calculated over the complete sector—comprising the prefix, user data, and suffix—totaling 2352 bytes.
If the image is modified, the checksum block is considered outdated and should be either removed or excluded from the most recent index to ensure integrity.
==== Structure Definition

uint32_t identifier;
/**Length in uint8_ts of the block */
