Abstract:
A nonvolatile memory device comprises a memory cell array and a voltage generator. The memory cell array comprises a plurality of memory cells connected in series between a string selection transistor connected to a bit line and a ground selection transistor connected to a source line. The voltage generator provides read voltages to word lines of memory cells selected from among the plurality of memory cells during a read operation. The read voltages of the selected memory cells differ from each other according to their respective distances from the string selection transistor.

Abstract:
A storage system performing data deduplication includes a storage device configured to store data received from a host, and a controller configured to receive the data and an index associated with the data received from the host. The controller includes a memory configured to store mapping information and a reference count, the mapping information associating the index received from the host with a physical address of the storage system, the reference count associated with the index received from the host. The controller determines whether the data received from the host corresponds to a duplicate of data previously stored in the storage device by reading, from the memory, the mapping information and the reference count, the reading based on the index received from the host. The controller performs a deduplication process by updating the reference count if the data received from the host corresponds to the duplicate of data previously stored.
