Abstract: A write command is received to write data in a target zone including one or more tracks and it is determined whether a data structure is stored in a memory for counting writes performed in a track of the target zone. If such a data structure is not stored in the memory, at least one Low Repeat Write (LRW) data structure is created for the target zone to count writes in sectors of respective tracks of the target zone since creation of the at least one LRW data structure. In another aspect, a write count for a segment is incremented in a data structure for a track to account for a write in the segment. A current overall Track Interference (TI) write count for the target zone is incremented if the incremented segment write count is the highest write count among respective segment write counts in the data structure.

Abstract: A data storage device is disclosed comprising a non-volatile storage medium (NVSM), and control circuitry configured to receive a plurality of access commands, process the plurality of access commands using a customer prediction model to predict a customer of the data storage device, wherein the customer prediction model is trained off-line based on access patterns of a plurality of different customers. The control circuitry then configures access to the NVSM based on the predicted customer.
