  This example is based on the GD32E513Z-EVAL-V1.0 board.

  The Mass Storage example gives a typical example of how to use the USB device 
peripheral to communicate with a PC Host using the bulk transfer while the internal 
flash is used as storage media.

  This example supports the BBB (bulk bulk bulk) protocol and all needed SCSI(small computer
system interface) commands, and is compatible with windows platform.

  After running the example, the user just has to plug the USB cable into a PC host and 
the device is automatically detected. A new removable drive appears in the system window 
and write/read/format operations can be performed as with any other removable drive.

  The device supports double buffer mode to improve transfer performance, which can be 
configured by modifying the USBD_DOUBLE_BUFFER_ENABLE macro in the usbd_conf.h file.
