  • Publication number: 20190065088
    Abstract: Devices and techniques for random access memory power savings are disclosed herein. Data contained in RAM is compressed in response to obtaining a trigger. Here, the RAM organized into several discrete hardware components with a corresponding power control. The data contained in the RAM is replaced with the compressed data to free a discrete hardware component of the RAM. The discrete hardware component is then powered down via the corresponding power control.

  • Publication number: 20190065052
    Abstract: Devices and techniques for efficient allocation of storage connection resources are disclosed herein. An active trigger for a storage device is received when the storage device is in an idle state. A workload that corresponds to the storage device is measured to determine that the workload meets a threshold. Connection parameters, for a connection to the storage device, are negotiated based on the workload in response to receipt of the active trigger and the workload meeting the threshold. The workload is then executed on the storage device via the connection using the connection parameters.

  • Publication number: 20190066799
    Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are systems, methods, memory devices, and machine readable mediums for a fast secure data destruction for NAND memory devices that renders data in a memory cell unreadable. Instead of going through all the erase phases, the memory device may remove sensitive data by performing only the pre-programming phase of the erase process. Thus, the NAND doesn't perform the second and third phases of the erase process. This is much faster and results in data that cannot be reconstructed. In some examples, because the erase pulse is not actually applied and because this is simply a programming operation, data may be rendered unreadable at a per-page level rather than a per-block level as in traditional erases.
