    Abstract: A storage device includes a nonvolatile memory device and a storage controller. The storage controller includes a multi-protocol host interface circuit that receives a first-type request including a first logical address from an external host and transmits/receives data corresponding to the first-type request with the external host by a block unit. Additionally, the multi-protocol host interface circuit receives a second-type request including a first physical address from the external host and transmits/receives data corresponding to the second-type request with the external host by a unit smaller than the block unit. A mapping cache manager manages an address translation table cache, sends an address translation request including the first physical address to the external host, and receives a response including mapping information corresponding to the first physical address from the external host.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and apparatuses for data loss prevention of a storage device. In some embodiments, the data loss preventing method includes receiving, from a host system, a query plan corresponding to necessary data to be stored in a volatile memory. The data loss preventing method further includes generating, based on the query plan, a data priority list corresponding to the necessary data. The data loss preventing method further includes selecting, based on the data priority list, at least one portion of the volatile memory, when a main power supplied by the host system drops to or below a power level threshold. The data loss preventing method further includes moving the necessary data to the at least one portion of the volatile memory.

    Abstract: A method performed by a device connected to a host processor via a bus includes: providing a first read request including a first address to a memory; receiving a second address stored in a first region of the memory corresponding to the first address, from the memory; providing a second read request including the second address to the memory; and receiving first data stored in a second region of the memory corresponding to the second address, from the memory, wherein the first read request further includes information indicating that the first address is an indirect address of the first data.
