nails all bend, unless your using a air nailer I would use screws, and
fill all voids, then sand as needed
I agree, screws are much better for the subfloor.
A spiral-shank flooring nail is as good as a screw, except
that you'll never get the thing out again. A screw is a
marked improvement over a bright-common nail, but you shouldn't
be using those in a floor, anyway.
If OP is putting in a solid wood floor, lined with
rosin paper, then cracks and small voids in the
subfloor are a non-issue. Bumps, however, are bad.
