hello terje, i flashed cnc 3040 firmware to stm32 bluepill 64kb because the seller sent the wrong item. but it was successfully flashed and i ran the cnc machine without any problems for more than a week running an average of 5 hours per day, is this normal? will there be no problems in the future

Then the MCU is a 128K device - I would be surprised if grblHAL would run at all if only half of the code is present in flash.

everything works smoothly including the homing system and limit switch, the cnc finishes the job without any problems, you might need to try it, btw I just bought a stm32 fx1xx with a type C connection, the seller said 128 KB but the flash size turned out to be 256kb, are there many clone stm32s circulating that do not match the specifications?

The STM1xx series surely is cloned in various ways, more or less compatible with the original. It is always best to ensure you get a real ST chip, not a clone.
AFAIK if it is a 256K device it is a high-density version (xC, xD or xE), what does the chip marking say?
BTW more grblHAL features can be added when running on a high-density device, all boards available in the Web Builder except CNC 3040 are for high-density.
