摘要:
A controller executes first processing for writing a plurality of data in a sector unit in the first storing area; second processing for flushing the data stored in the first storing area to the first input buffer in a first management unit twice or larger natural number times as large as the sector unit; third processing for flushing the data stored in the first storing area to the second input buffer in a second management unit twice or larger natural number times as large as the first management unit; fourth processing for relocating a logical block in which all pages are written in the first input buffer to the second storing area; fifth processing for relocating a logical block in which all pages are written in the second input buffer to the third storing area; and sixth processing for flushing a plurality of data stored in the second storing area to the second input buffer in the second management unit.

A memory system includes a controller that manages data stored in the first and second storing areas. The controller determines, when a readout error occurs when the stored data in the second storing area is read out, success or failure of error correction to the read-out data based on the result of the error correction stored in a storage buffer, writes, when the error correction is successful, correction data corresponding to the read-out data stored in the storage buffer, and writes, when the error correction fails, the read-out data itself not subjected to error correction processing.

A memory system includes a controlling unit that configured to control data transfer between the first and the second memory. The controlling unit executes copy processing for, after reading out data stored in a first page of the second memory to the first memory, writing the data in a second page of the second memory, determines, when executing the copy processing, whether the error correction processing for the data read out from the first page is successful, stores, when the error correction processing is successful, corrected data in the first memory and writes the corrected data in the second page, and reads out, when the error correction processing is unsuccessful, the data from the first page to the first memory and writes the data not subjected to the error correction processing in the second page.
摘要:
A memory system includes a volatile first storing unit, a nonvolatile second storing unit in which data is managed in a predetermined unit, and a controller that writes data requested by a host apparatus in the second storing unit via the first storing unit and reads out data requested by the host apparatus from the second storing unit to the first storing unit and transfers the data to the host apparatus. The controller includes a management table for managing the number of failure areas in a predetermined unit that occur in the second storing unit and switches, according to the number of failure areas, an operation mode in writing data in the second storing unit from the host apparatus.

摘要:
A memory system includes a management-information restoring unit. The management-information restoring unit determines whether a short break has occurred referring to a pre-log or a post-log in a NAND memory. The management-information restoring unit determines that a short break has occurred when the pre-log or the post-log is present in the NAND memory. In that case, the management-information restoring unit determines timing of occurrence of the short break, and, after selecting a pre-log or a post-log used for restoration, performs restoration of the management information reflecting these logs on a snapshot. Thereafter, the management-information restoring unit applies recovery processing to all write-once blocks in the NAND memory, takes the snapshot again, and opens the snapshot and the logs in the past.
摘要:
A memory system in which speed of processing for searching through management tables is increased by providing a forward lookup table for searching for, respectively in track and cluster units, from a logical address, a storage device position where data corresponds to the logical address, and a reverse lookup table for searching for, from a position of the storage device, a logical address stored in the position. These forward and reverse lookup tables are linked.
摘要:
A system includes: a first input buffer that functions as an input buffer for a third storing area; and a second input buffer that functions as an input buffer for the third storing area and that separately stores data with a high update frequency for the third storing area. In the system, a plurality of data written in a first storing area or a second storing area are flushed to the first input buffer in units of logical blocks. Also, a plurality of data written in the first input buffer are relocated to the third storing area in units of logical blocks.
