FiledArray files are, as the name implies on-disk representations of arrays.

There's a 16-byte header:

offset size name notes
0 4 unknown1 Always 1?
4 4 unknown2 Always 1?
8 4 num_items  
12 4 item_size  

Following the header, items are placed in the file one after another, with the proviso that none may straddle a 4096-byte block boundary. If there's not room for a full item to fit in a block, then empty space is left, and the item is put at the beginning of the next block.
