METHOD AND APPARATUS TO REDUCE NAND DIE COLLISIONS IN A SOLID STATE DRIVE

Abstract:

Quality of Service of a multi-stream solid state drive is improved by storing data to be written to a NAND die in the solid state drive in a byte-addressable write-in-place non-volatile memory in the solid state drive in the event of a NAND die collision preventing a write to the NAND die. The data stored in the a byte-addressable write-in-place non-volatile memory is written to the NAND die when the NAND die is not busy.
