METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR EXTENDING LIFESPAN AND ENHANCING THROUGHPUT IN A HIGH-DENSITY SOLID STATE DRIVE

Abstract:

One embodiment facilitates data placement in a storage device. During operation, the system receives a request indicating first data to be written to a non-volatile memory which includes a plurality of dies, wherein a plurality of error correction code (ECC) codec modules reside on the non-volatile memory. The system receives, by a first codec module residing on a first die, the first data. The system encodes, by the first codec module operating on the first die, the first data based on an error correction code (ECC) to obtain first ECC-encoded data which includes a first set of ECC parity bits. The system writes the first ECC-encoded data to the first die.
