Description
The header should contain enough information to recreate index file it it is lost or dropped, or only data file was copied between storage devices.
I suppose the best candidates are file format version and allocated links. All other fields should be calculated using one time scan of data file.

Research direction
Start at csharp/Platform.Data.Doublets/Memory/LinksHeader.cs lines 16-23 and inspect the split memory implementation's header fields. Determine how the file format version and allocated links can preserve enough information to recreate a lost index file, while other fields are calculated by scanning the data file; done means the index can be recreated after only the data file is copied.
