PERSISTENT DATA STRUCTURE TO TRACK AND MANAGE SSD DEFECTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240354209 titled 'PERSISTENT DATA STRUCTURE TO TRACK AND MANAGE SSD DEFECTS
The embodiment of an electronic apparatus involves controlling access to persistent storage media using a block and sub-block access structure, tracking read fails at a sub-block granularity, and updating a data structure in response to read fails.
- Logic is coupled to one or more substrates to control access to persistent storage media.
- The logic stores a data structure in the storage media to track read fails at a sub-block granularity for every block.
- The data structure is updated in response to a read fail on a block to indicate a failed sub-block corresponding to the read fail.
Potential Applications: - Data storage systems - Memory management in electronic devices - Error correction mechanisms in storage media
Problems Solved: - Efficient tracking and management of read fails at a granular level - Improved error correction capabilities in storage systems
Benefits: - Enhanced data reliability - Better performance in handling read fails - Increased longevity of storage media

Original Abstract Submitted
an embodiment of an electronic apparatus may include one or more substrates, and logic coupled to the one or more substrates, the logic to control access to a persistent storage media based on a block and sub-block access structure, store a data structure in the persistent storage media to track read fails at a sub-block granularity for a word-line for every block, and update the data structure in response to a read fail on a block to indicate a failed sub-block that corresponds to the read fail for a word-line for the block. other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
