  • Patent number: 11847343
    Abstract: A host sends a storage system a command to read data from a memory and then a command to write the data back to the memory to defragment the data. The host sends flags along with the commands. The flag sent with the read command causes the storage system to take a snapshot of the logical-to-physical address map relevant to the data. The flag sent with the write command causes the storage system to compare the snapshot with the current version of the logical-to-physical address map and write the data back to the memory only if there is a match.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20160232057
    Abstract: A storage device with a memory may have an alternative safe mode boot loading process. Upon detecting a malfunction, the storage device may activate a safe mode in which a safe mode boot loader is stored in memory of the storage device that is not logically mapped. The safe mode allows for recovery and debugging by the host that may not otherwise be possible without the safe mode process.
