Original Abstract Submitted
an operation method of a universal flash storage (ufs) host configured to control a ufs device includes configuring a turbo write buffer of the ufs device; sending a first query request ufs protocol information unit (upiu) including reconfiguration information about the turbo write buffer to the ufs device, during driving the ufs device; and receiving a first response upiu associated with the first query request upiu from the ufs device, wherein, the first query request upiu is a request that causes a size of the turbo write buffer of the ufs device to be changed from a first size to a second size different from the first size.
