STORAGE DEVICE AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17872167 titled 'STORAGE DEVICE AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a storage device that includes a non-volatile memory and a storage controller with a processor, an accelerator, and a memory. The memory stores a flash translation layer, which includes a mapping table that maps logical page numbers to physical page numbers. The processor sends commands to the non-volatile memory and provides mapping update information to the accelerator. The accelerator updates the mapping information in the mapping table and checks for continuity in the mapping update information.
- The storage device includes a non-volatile memory and a storage controller with a processor, an accelerator, and a memory.
- The memory stores a flash translation layer, which includes a mapping table that maps logical page numbers to physical page numbers.
- The processor sends commands to the non-volatile memory and provides mapping update information to the accelerator.
- The accelerator updates the mapping information in the mapping table and checks for continuity in the mapping update information.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be used in various storage devices such as solid-state drives (SSDs) and flash memory cards.
- It can improve the performance and efficiency of storage devices by optimizing the mapping of logical page numbers to physical page numbers.
Problems Solved
- The technology solves the problem of efficiently managing the mapping between logical and physical page numbers in storage devices.
- It addresses the need for fast and accurate updates to the mapping table to ensure data integrity and efficient data access.
Benefits
- Improved performance: The technology allows for faster and more efficient access to data by optimizing the mapping of logical page numbers to physical page numbers.
- Enhanced data integrity: The mapping update process ensures that the mapping table is accurately updated, reducing the risk of data corruption or loss.
- Efficient storage management: The technology enables efficient management of storage devices by optimizing the mapping of logical and physical page numbers, resulting in better overall storage performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
A storage device includes; a non-volatile memory, and a storage controller including a processor, an accelerator and a memory storing a flash translation layer including a mapping table including mapping information between logical page numbers and physical page numbers. The processor may provide a command to the non-volatile memory and provide first mapping update information in a first mapping update size to the accelerator. Upon updating mapping information of the mapping table, the accelerator may update mapping information for logical page numbers and check continuity for the first mapping update information.
