    摘要: According to one embodiment, there is provided a storage device including a data converter, a recording medium, and an equalizer. The data converter converts data into sets of n number of four-ary symbols according to mapping rules in which 22n-1 or fewer types of bit labels are mapped onto the n number of four-ary symbols, where n is an integer of two or greater. Onto the recording medium, the converted n number of four-ary symbols are recorded in the form of a signal of one level among four levels. The equalizer equalizes a signal read from the recording medium into sets of the n number of four-ary symbols.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, a storage device comprises a nonvolatile memory and a memory controller that performs reading and writing data from and into the nonvolatile memory. A number, not being 2n, of threshold areas can be set in the memory cells of the nonvolatile memory. The memory controller performs first writing based on first data value assignment, which sets 2n data values to correspond to 2n threshold areas, in first-time writing into a first memory cell of the nonvolatile memory and performs second writing on the first memory cell after the first writing without erasing data based on second data value assignment, which sets 2n data values to correspond to 2n threshold areas including threshold areas not used in the first data value assignment.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, an equalizer is configured to obtain a noise included in a first correction signal by using a noise component of a first track and a noise interference component from a second track. The equalizer is configured to correct the first correction signal by using the obtained noise. The equalizer is configured to equalize the corrected first correction signal. The noise component of the first track is calculated based on a noise component of the first track at a first timing and a noise component of the first track at a second timing earlier than the first timing. The noise interference component from the second track is calculated based on a noise interference component from the second track at the first timing and a noise interference component from the second track at the second timing. The decoder is configured to decode the equalized first correction signal.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, there is provided a controller including an interference cancelling module, a boosting module, and a decoding module. The interference cancelling module generates a first correction signal by cancelling an interference component from an adjacent track in a signal read from a target track of a disk medium. The boosting module generates a second correction signal by boosting a low frequency component of a signal corresponding to the first correction signal. The decoding module decodes a signal based on the second correction signal.
