STORAGE DEVICE WITH DATA QUALITY METRIC AND SELECTABLE DATA RECOVERY SCHEME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18106474 titled 'STORAGE DEVICE WITH DATA QUALITY METRIC AND SELECTABLE DATA RECOVERY SCHEME
Simplified Explanation
Abstract: A storage device is disclosed that includes storage for data. The device is equipped with a controller that manages the writing and reading of data to and from the storage. Additionally, a data quality metric table is present, which maps the number of errors to corresponding data quality metrics. The storage device can transmit this data quality metric table back to a host.
- The storage device has storage capacity for data.
- A controller is responsible for managing the writing and reading of data to and from the storage.
- A data quality metric table is included, which associates a specific number of errors with a corresponding data quality metric.
- The storage device can send the data quality metric table back to a host.
Potential Applications:
- Data storage devices for computers, servers, or other electronic systems.
- Cloud storage systems.
- Network-attached storage (NAS) devices.
- Solid-state drives (SSDs) or hard disk drives (HDDs).
Problems Solved:
- Efficiently managing data quality in storage devices.
- Providing a means to quantify the quality of stored data.
- Enabling the host system to assess the quality of data stored in the device.
Benefits:
- Improved data management and storage efficiency.
- Facilitates error detection and correction in stored data.
- Enables the host system to make informed decisions based on the data quality metrics provided by the storage device.
Original Abstract Submitted
A storage device is disclosed. The storage device may include storage for data. A controller may manage writing the data to the storage and reading the data from the storage. A data quality metric table may map a first number of errors to a first data quality metric and map a second number of errors to a second data quality metric. A transmitter may return the data quality metric table to a host.
