Optimize data protection layouts based on distributed flash wear leveling

Abstract:

A method for storing data in a storage system having solid-state memory is provided. The method includes determining a first portion of the solid-state memory having a lower read latency than a second portion of the solid-state memory, relative to each other or to a threshold. The method includes writing data bits of erasure coded data to the first portion of the solid-state memory, and writing one or more parity bits of the erasure coded data to the second portions of the solid-state memory. A storage system is also provided.
