STORAGE SYSTEM HAVING A HOST DIRECTLY MANAGE PHYSICAL DATA LOCATIONS OF STORAGE DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18665993 titled 'STORAGE SYSTEM HAVING A HOST DIRECTLY MANAGE PHYSICAL DATA LOCATIONS OF STORAGE DEVICE
The abstract of this patent application describes a storage system that includes a host with a processor and memory unit, and a storage device with a controller and non-volatile memory unit. The processor sends a write command, write data, and size information to the storage device, without a write address. The controller determines where to write the data in the non-volatile memory unit, writes the data, and sends the location back to the host. The processor also creates mapping information between the data identifier and the physical write location in the memory unit.
- The storage system includes a host with a processor and memory unit, and a storage device with a controller and non-volatile memory unit.
- The processor sends a write command, data, and size information to the storage device, without a write address.
- The controller determines the physical write location in the non-volatile memory unit based on the command and size information.
- The controller writes the data in the determined location and sends the location back to the host.
- The processor generates mapping information in the memory unit to link the data identifier with the physical write location.
Potential Applications: - Data storage systems - Information management systems - Embedded systems
Problems Solved: - Efficient data writing without specific write addresses - Streamlined data storage processes - Improved data mapping and retrieval
Benefits: - Faster data writing processes - Enhanced data organization and retrieval - Optimal use of storage space
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Data Storage System for Enhanced Efficiency This technology can be applied in various industries such as: - Data centers - Cloud storage providers - IoT device manufacturers
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this storage system improve data writing efficiency? 2. What are the key advantages of using mapping information in data storage systems?
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on the latest advancements in data storage systems and non-volatile memory technologies to enhance the efficiency and performance of storage solutions.
Original Abstract Submitted
A storage system includes a host including a processor and a memory unit, and a storage device including a controller and a non-volatile memory unit. The processor is configured to output a write command, write data, and size information of the write data, to the storage device, the write command that is output not including a write address. The controller is configured to determine a physical write location of the non-volatile memory unit in which the write data are to be written, based on the write command and the size information, write the write data in the physical write location of the non-volatile memory unit, and output the physical write location to the host. The processor is further configured to generate, in the memory unit, mapping information between an identifier of the write data and the physical write location.
