Storage System and Method for Data Placement in Zoned Storage - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17860548 titled 'Storage System and Method for Data Placement in Zoned Storage
Simplified Explanation
The abstract of the patent application describes a storage system that uses larger memory blocks to store multiple zones.
- The storage system stores zones with similar properties in a given block.
- Storing zones with different properties in the same block can cause problems.
- The storage system obtains zone property information for each zone to ensure compatibility.
- Storing zones with similar properties in a block improves efficiency and organization.
Original Abstract Submitted
A storage system uses blocks of memory that are sized larger than a size of a zone. This means that the storage system stores multiple zones in a given block. Storing zones with different one properties in a given block can be problematic, so the storage system obtains zone property information for each zone and stores zones with similar zone properties in a given block.
