    Abstract: Technologies for establishing and managing a high-performance memory region of a solid state drive include reserving a region of a volatile memory of the solid state drive for storage of host data. Memory accesses received from a host may be directed toward the reserved region of the volatile memory or toward a non-volatile memory of the solid state drive. Due to the structure of the volatile memory, memory accesses to the reserved region may exhibit lower access timing relative to memory accesses to the non-volatile memory. As such, the reserved region may be utilized as storage space for journaling and logging of data and/or other applications. Upon shutdown or a power failure event, data stored in the reserved region of the volatile memory is copied to the non-volatile memory and subsequently reinstated to the volatile memory upon the next initialization event.

    Abstract translation: 用于建立和管理固态驱动器的高性能存储器区域的技术包括保留用于存储主机数据的固态驱动器的易失性存储器的区域。 从主机接收到的存储器访问可以指向易失性存储器的保留区域或朝向固态驱动器的非易失性存储器。 由于易失性存储器的结构,相对于对非易失性存储器的存储器访问,对保留区域的存储器访问可以呈现较低的访问时序。 因此,保留区域可以用作用于日志记录和记录数据和/或其他应用的存储空间。 在关闭或电源故障事件时,存储在易失性存储器的保留区域中的数据被复制到非易失性存储器中,并且随后在下一个初始化事件时恢复到易失性存储器。
