    摘要: A storage system includes solid-state storage devices and a storage controller operatively coupled to the solid-state storage devices, the storage controller including a processing device, to store sets of data at one or more solid-state storage devices of the plurality of solid-state storage devices. The processing device may also generate tags for each of the sets of data based on one or more metadata items associated with each set of data. The processing device may also determine an expected lifespan for each set of data based on the one or more tags generated for the respective set of data. The processing device may also group each of the one or more sets of data into respective ones of a plurality of memory blocks based on the expected lifespan for each set of data, wherein each memory block corresponds to sets of data of a particular expected lifespan.

    摘要: A storage system determines a present amount of reclaimable space in storage memory. The storage system determines a garbage collection directive based on the present amount of reclaimable space in comparison to a target amount of reclaimable space. The storage system selects blocks of storage memory for a group of blocks for garbage collection. Each block selected has greater than or equal to a threshold amount of reclaimable space in accordance with the garbage collection directive. The storage system performs garbage collection, using blocks from the group.
