Abstract:
A sustained status accelerating method for a storage device includes: controlling the storage device to receive a sustained status command from the outside; and controlling the storage device to enter the sustained status using a sustained valid page count (SVPC) table in response to the sustained status command so that each of a plurality of blocks constituting the storage device has a value greater than a predetermined valid page count. The SVPC table includes a valid page count with respect to each of the blocks in the storage device.
Abstract:
An operating method of a memory controller that controls a nonvolatile memory device is provided. A command is received from an external device. Whether the nonvolatile memory device is in a temperature control mode is determined. When the nonvolatile memory device is in the temperature control mode, the received command is delayed for a predetermined time until the received command is outputted to the nonvolatile memory device. When the nonvolatile memory device is in the temperature control mode, the nonvolatile memory device is in an idle state.
