1. **Bytes per MAU**: The number of *Bytes* that form the Minimum Addressable Unit. It commonly is a fixed number for a specific target hardware. Use for example a value of `1` for byte-addressable architectures.
2. **MAUs per Group**: The number of *MAUs* that form a *Group* considering the selected *Endianess*. Use for example a value of `2` to form a 4-byte value consisting of `2` 2-byte MAUs.
3. **Groups per Row**: Number of *Groups* to display in a row. This can be a fixed number of *Groups*. Or the value `Autofit` to let the Memory Inspector calculate the best utilization of space in the `Data` column.
4. **Group Endianess**: The order of *MAUs* within a *Group*. The value can be `Little Endian` or `Big Endian`.
