Abstract:

A processing device initializes a drive strength value of a storage device in an electronic device to a first level. The processing device detects an operation to be performed on the storage device and executes the operation. The processing device monitors a bit error rate occurring in the storage device as a result of executing the operation and determines if the bit error rate satisfies a threshold value. In response to determining that the bit error rate satisfies the threshold value, the processing device increases the drive strength value of the storage device to a second level and re-executes the operation at the increased drive strength value of the storage device.
