MEMORY SUB-SYSTEM STORAGE MODE CONTROL

Abstract:

A system includes a memory device and a processing device coupled to the memory device. The memory device can include memory cells. The processing device can store operation system data in the memory cells in a single level cell (SLC) mode. The processing device can assert a flag indicating that the data written to the memory cells in the SLC mode is to remain stored in the SLC mode. The processing device can de-assert the flag, thereby indicating that the data is foldable into memory cells in a non-SLC mode.
