Abstract: An operating method of a memory controller may include receiving a state analysis request of a memory from a host, determining a fragment state of the memory, determining a lifespan situation of the memory, generating an analysis result indicating whether a garbage collection is restricted, on the basis of the fragment state and the lifespan situation, and providing the analysis results to the host.
