STORAGE DEVICE, AN OPERATION METHOD OF A STORAGE SYSTEM INCLUDING THE STORAGE DEVICE, AND A HOST DEVICE CONTROLLING THE STORAGE DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17969959 titled 'STORAGE DEVICE, AN OPERATION METHOD OF A STORAGE SYSTEM INCLUDING THE STORAGE DEVICE, AND A HOST DEVICE CONTROLLING THE STORAGE DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a storage device that includes a nonvolatile memory device and a controller. The controller receives a write command and corresponding data from a host and stores the data in the nonvolatile memory device. The controller determines where to store the data based on the area information provided in the write command. The storage device has three areas: the first area, the second area, and the third area. The first and second areas each have memory cells that store "n" bits, while the third area has memory cells that store "m" bits (where m is greater than n).
- The storage device includes a nonvolatile memory device and a controller.
- The controller receives a write command and corresponding data from a host.
- The data is stored in the nonvolatile memory device based on the area information provided in the write command.
- The storage device has three areas: the first area, the second area, and the third area.
- The first and second areas have memory cells that store "n" bits.
- The third area has memory cells that store "m" bits, where m is greater than n.
Potential Applications
- Data storage devices such as solid-state drives (SSDs) and USB flash drives.
- Embedded systems where nonvolatile memory is required.
Problems Solved
- Efficient utilization of nonvolatile memory by storing data in different areas based on the write command.
- Flexibility in storing data in areas with different memory cell capacities.
Benefits
- Improved storage efficiency by utilizing different areas with varying memory cell capacities.
- Enhanced performance by optimizing data storage based on the write command.
- Increased flexibility in managing data storage in nonvolatile memory devices.
Original Abstract Submitted
A storage device including: a nonvolatile memory device including a first, second and third area; and a controller to receive a first write command including a first logical block address from a host, to receive first data corresponding to the first logical block address in response to the first write command, and store the first data in the nonvolatile memory device, when the first write command includes area information, the controller stores the first data in the first area or the second area based on the area information, when the first write command does not include the area information, the controller stores the first data. in the third area, each of the first area and the second area includes memory cells each storing “n” bits (n being a positive integer), and the third area includes memory cells each storing “m” bits (m being a positive integer greater than n).
