Abstract: An example memory system may include a central processing unit (CPU) comprising a CPU cache, a storage class memory, a volatile memory and a memory controller. The memory controller is to store, in the storage class memory, a first cache line including first data and a first directory tag corresponding to the first data. The memory controller is to further store, in the storage class memory, a second cache line including second data and a second directory tag corresponding to the second data. The memory controller is to store, in the volatile memory, a third cache line that comprises the first directory tag and the second directory tag, the third cache line excluding the first data and the second data.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for enhanced protection of data stored in a non-volatile memory system involve a controller capable of adapting to the failure of one or more non-volatile memory devices in the memory system. The controller stores data in the form of page stripes, each page stripe composed of data pages, and each data page stored in a different non-volatile memory device. The controller also detects failure of a non-volatile memory device in which a data page of a particular page stripe is stored, reconstructs the data page, and stores the reconstructed data page in a new page stripe, where the number of data pages in the new page stripe is less than the number of data pages in the particular page stripe, and where no page of the new page stripe is stored in a memory location within the failed non-volatile memory device.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for reduction of Read Disturb errors in a NAND FLASH memory system comprise a controller configured to organize FLASH memory devices into blocks, each block having a plurality of pages, and each page defining an individually addressable physical memory location. The controller is further configured to accumulate a Block READ Count corresponding to the number of times any pages in a first block of pages have been read since the first block was last erased. Once the READ count reaches a predetermined number, the controller responds to subsequent READ requests for pages within the first block by moving data associated with a requested page to a page in a second, different block without moving data associated with other pages in the first block, and modifying a logical-to-physical translation table to associate the moved data with the physical address of the page in the second block.
