    Abstract: A storage device includes: a memory device including a plurality of planes, and a plurality of cache buffers and data buffers; and a memory controller for controlling the memory device to transmit first data and second data from first plane and second plane into the respective first cache buffer and second cache buffer, and control the first cache buffer and the second cache buffer to transmit the first data and the second data to the memory controller. In response to a read request for third data from a host while the first data is transmitting from the first cache buffer to the memory controller, the memory controller transmits a cache read command to the memory device such that the memory device reads the third data after the first data is completely transmitted to the memory controller, before the second data is transmitted from the second cache buffer.

    Abstract: A data storage apparatus may include a data storage device including at least one data die to store first data, and at least one parity die to store second data, third data, and a chip-kill parity, where the at least one data die and the at least one parity die are connected to a channel, and controller in communication with the data storage device and configured to receive a write request for the first data and the second data from a host that is in communication with the data storage device through the channel to generate the chip-kill parity from the first data and the second data. The controller is further configured to read the third data from the parity die and provide the third data to the host upon receipt of a read request for the third data from the host while the chip-kill parity is being updated based on the first data.

    Abstract: A memory system includes a nonvolatile memory device and a controller. The nonvolatile memory device includes a memory block including a plurality of memory cells, a first memory region of memory cells coupled to a first word line and a second memory region of memory cells coupled to a second word line. The controller performs a single level cell (SLC) program operation on the second memory region and perform a fine program operation on the first memory region after a completion of the SLC program operation on the second memory region.
