Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to improved techniques for managing a data storage device (DSD) pool, and in particular the selecting of DSDs based on commands distribution and latencies among the command queues in the DSDs. In some aspects, a DSD may have multiple queues that enable the DSD to perform certain commands (e.g., write commands and/or read commands) in parallel. Thus, such DSD has various head-of-line blocking latencies based on which queue the command is directed to. A storage management device can reduce the command latency of the DSDs, for example, based on queue information (e.g., head-of-line blocking, parallel queue utilization, etc.) learned from the DSDs.

Abstract: Various approaches for attaching tracking devices to pallets allow pallets to be remotely tracked through any phase of a transportation lifecycle. In a first approach, one or more electronic components of a tracking device may be disposed within a cavity of a block of a pallet. In a second approach, one or more electronic components of a tracking device may be disposed within a strut that interfaces between two beams of a pallet. In a third approach, one or more electronic components of a tracking device may be disposed within a cavity of a beam.

Abstract: Rather than disposing a cap layer on a rear soft bias (RSB) of a DFL read head prior to the patterning of the RSB and TMR sensor, disclosed is a decoupling layer disposed on the RSB and TMR sensor after they undergo patterning, with the decoupling layer undergoing its own subsequent patterning. The RSB and the TMR sensor can thus be patterned (defined) together without a RSB cap layer adversely affecting the patterning. As the decoupling layer undergoes its separate patterning, its cross-track width can be flexibly optimized to be greater than that of both the RSB and the TMR sensor. In some embodiments, the decoupling layer's extra width will help it completely decouple the RSB and TMR sensor from the top shield. The side shields will be partially decoupled from the top shield due to the extra width, but will still retain partial coupling to the top shield.

Abstract: As block sizes in NAND memory continue to increase in size and density, in can be useful to access less than all of the block, such as sub-block or subset of the blocks NAND strings, in order to reduce read disturbs, reduce power consumption, and increase operating speeds. Although this sort of separation of sub-block can be achieved by independently biasable select gates, the sort of select gate structure can face processing difficulties, particularly at the source side of three dimensional NAND structures. To avoid these difficulties while still providing individually selectable sub-blocks, the following introduces word line based selectors, where multiple word lines of a blocks are programmed with different sets of threshold voltages, allowing them to be biased for individual access of sub-blocks.
