  • Publication number: 20100318824
    Abstract: In a particular embodiment, a data storage device includes a controller. The controller includes device performance management logic to retrieve an advanced power management (APM) setting from an APM register of a host system. The APM register includes a plurality of register settings adapted to represent a respective plurality of APM settings. The controller further includes policy selection logic to select at least one storage device (SD) policy from a plurality of SD policies based on the determined APM setting and configuration logic to apply the selected at least one SD policy to adjust at least one of a performance characteristic and a power characteristic associated with first and second data storage media.
