Method and apparatus for improving removable storage performance

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for operation of a removable storage device. In some aspects, the device can initialize the operation of a removable storage device, such as with a host device. The device can also identify an environment around the device as a thermally enhanced environment or a thermally non-enhanced environment in response to the initialization of operation of the device. Additionally, the device can select a thermal control loop algorithm of the removable storage device based on the identified environment. The device can also adjust a thermal control loop algorithm of the device based on the identified environment. Moreover, the device can control processing operations of a processor in response to the adjusted thermal control loop algorithm.
