Abstract:
A storage system and related method are for operating solid-state storage memory in a storage system. Zones of solid-state storage memory are provided. Each zone includes a portion of the solid-state storage memory. The zone has a data write requirement for the zone for reliability of data reads. The storage system adjusts power loss protection for at least one zone. The adjusting is based on the data write requirement for the zone and responsive to detecting a power loss.
