  • Determination of power-off duration of NVME SSD
    Patent number: 11853769
    Abstract: An SSD includes a controller having a first non-volatile memory in which a power-off timestamp is stored, and a hardware register accessible by a host. The SSD also includes a second non-volatile memory coupled to the controller, the second non-volatile memory storing instructions for at least one boot-up mode of the SSD. Upon power up of the controller and prior to the controller executing the instructions for at least one boot-up mode of the SSD, the controller receives, in the hardware register, a power-on timestamp from the host and determines, based on the power-on timestamp and the stored power-off timestamp, a boot-up mode of the SSD.
    Type: Grant
