Abstract: Various implementations described herein relate to systems and methods for placing data on a Solid State Drive (SSD), including writing data to a non-volatile memory storage of the SSD, determining one or more of read errors, a number of invalid pages per block, or a read disturb counter for the data, determining access frequency of the data based on the one or more of the read errors, the number of invalid pages per block, or the read disturb counter, and partitioning the non-volatile memory storage into a plurality of regions based on the access frequency.

Abstract: A bridge device for connecting a USB 3 host device with a plurality of downstream, non-USB 3 mass storage devices, such as SATA or PATA devices. The bridge device comprises an embedded hub having a plurality of internal USB 3 devices. The internal USB 3 devices do not have a physical USB 3 interface. The bridge device also has at least one downstream physical non-USB 3 device, to which a mass storage device may be attached. The internal USB 3 devices enable the host device to be presented with a plurality of USB 3 devices. This, in turn, allows transfer to the plurality of downstream physical non-USB 3 devices, via the internal USB 3 devices at an increased rate. The bridge may also include a downstream physical USB 3 interface. This can allow multiple bridge devices to be connected together in a cascade.
