ALLOCATING VARIABLE MEDIA TYPES OF MEMORY DEVICES IN A MEMORY SYSTEM

Abstract:

A processing device receives a first instruction specifying that first data is to remain on a first memory device of a plurality of memory devices, the first memory device comprising a first media having a first media type. The processing device further receives a second instruction specifying, based on one or more criteria, that second data is to be moved from the first media having the first media type to a second memory device of the plurality of memory devices, the second memory device comprising a second media having a second media type that is different than the first media type. The processing device further controls the first and second data in the plurality of memory devices based on the first instruction and the second instruction.
