    Abstract: A storage device is provided. The storage device includes storage clusters, and a controller. The controller receives a command and an address from an external host device, selects a storage cluster according to the received address, and transmits the received command and the received address to the selected storage cluster. The controller controls the storage clusters as normal storage clusters and slow storage clusters according to a temperature of a zone to which the storage clusters belong.

    Abstract: A method of controlling repair of a volatile memory device, includes, performing a patrol read operation repeatedly to provide error position information of errors included in read data from a volatile memory device, generating accumulated error information by accumulating the error position information based on the patrol read operation performed repeatedly, determining error attribute based on the accumulated error information, the error attribute indicating correlation between the errors and a structure of the volatile memory device, and performing a runtime repair operation with respect to the volatile memory device based on the accumulated error information and the error attribute. The errors may be managed efficiently to prevent failure of the volatile memory device, and thus performance and lifetime of the volatile memory device and the storage device may be enhanced.

    Abstract: A test operation condition of a volatile memory device is set such that an error probability is increased based on the test operation condition, compared to a normal operation condition for a normal operation of the volatile memory device. A test mode is set with respect to a test object region corresponding to at least a portion of a memory cell array included in the volatile memory device. A test operation of the volatile memory device is performed based on the test operation condition during the test mode to detect error position information of errors in data stored in the test object region. A runtime repair operation is performed with respect to the volatile memory device based on the error position information.
