Abstract:
An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a storage device having multiple non volatile memory chips and controller circuitry. The controller circuitry is to implement wear leveling of storage cells of the non volatile memory chips at a granularity of segments of storage cell arrays of the non volatile memory chips that share a same disturber node and that are coupled to a same storage cell array wire to diminish disturb errors.
Abstract:
Provided are an apparatus, memory controller and method for performing a block erase operation with respect to a non-volatile memory. A command is generated to perform a portion of the block erase operation. At least one read or write operation is performed after executing the command. An additional instance of the command is executed in response to determining that the block erase operation did not complete after performing the at least one read or write operation.
Abstract:
An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a solid state drive having multiple three dimensional stacked FLASH memory chips and controller circuitry. The controller circuitry is to implement wear leveling of storage cells of the FLASH memory chips at a granularity of segments of blocks of said FLASH memory chips that are coupled to a same word line and source gate source node to diminish word line read disturb errors.
