Abstract: A storage device includes a nonvolatile memory and a controller configured to manage data, stored in the nonvolatile memory, through a plurality of namespaces. The plurality of namespaces may include a first namespace, allocated to a first logical address space, and a second namespace allocated to a second logical address space, contiguous to the first logical address space. The controller may be configured to delete the first namespace in the first logical address space in response to a request of deleting the first name space, to copy the mapping information on the second namespace from the second logical address space to the first logical address space, and to load the mapping information on the second namespace into a cache.

Abstract: A storage device includes a nonvolatile memory device including a plurality of zones, each of the plurality of zones including a plurality of logical addresses, and a storage controller configured to control the nonvolatile memory, the storage controller including at least one buffer directly accessible by a host device, the buffer including at least one random write area and a write pointer, the write pointer configured to store a position indicating a starting logical address of the random write area, and the buffer configured to write data into the random write area based on the position of the write pointer in response to the buffer receiving the write data from the host device.

Abstract: A storage system may include a memory device including a first region including a single-level cell and a second region different from the first region, and a storage controller configured to read data from the first region at a first gear level of a plurality of gear levels, determine an error level of the read data and a state of the memory device, and change the first gear level to a second gear level of the plurality of gear levels based on the determined error level of the data and the determined state of the memory device.

Abstract: A storage device includes an integrity checking module checking integrity of data stored in a first host memory buffer (HMB) address of an HMB in a host coupled to the storage device, and an HMB mapping module mapping, if the integrity checking module determines the data as corrupted, the first HMB address to a second address.

Abstract: A storage device is provided. The storage device includes a memory device including a memory cell array configured to store metadata and main data and a storage controller configured to access the memory device and control the memory device, wherein the storage controller is configured to read data from the memory device at a speed adaptively varying to a first read speed or a second read speed according to a state of the memory device, the second read speed being faster than the first read speed.

Abstract: A storage device may include, at least one memory device including at least a first single-level cell (SLC) region, a second SLC region, and at least one multi-level cell (MLC) region, the first SLC region having a higher data read speed than the second SLC region, and the second SLC region having a higher data read speed than the at least one MLC region, and a storage controller configured to control the migration of data among the first SLC region, the second SLC region, and the at least one MLC region.

Abstract: A method of controlling operation timing of memory devices included in a storage apparatus and a memory system including the method. The method includes adjusting operation timing such that a number of memory devices that simultaneously perform operations is below a reference value according to a host request, and issuing operations according to the adjusted operation timing and transferring the issued operations to the memory devices.
