Patent application number | Description | Published |
20120159041 | STORAGE DRIVE BASED ANTIMALWARE METHODS AND APPARATUSES - An anti-malware approach uses a storage drive with the capability to lock selected memory areas. Platform assets such as OS objects are stored in the locked areas and thus, unauthorized changes to them may not be made by an anti-malware entity. | 06-21-2012 |
20130304978 | HIGH-PERFORMANCE STORAGE STRUCTURES AND SYSTEMS FEATURING MULTIPLE NON-VOLATILE MEMORIES - A memory storage system that includes at least a storage controller, a first non-volatile, solid-state memory and a second non-volatile, solid-state memory. The storage controller has an interface to receive commands from a host system. The first non-volatile, solid-state memory device is coupled with the storage controller to at least store data received from the host system. The second non-volatile, solid-state memory is coupled with the storage controller to store context information corresponding to the data stored in the first non-volatile, solid-state memory device. | 11-14-2013 |
20140006683 | OPTIMIZED CONTEXT DROP FOR A SOLID STATE DRIVE (SSD) | 01-02-2014 |
20140095767 | STORAGE DEVICE TRIMMING - In an embodiment, a command that specifies a logical block to trim in a storage device is acquired. An entry in a logical-to-physical address (L2P) table that contains a physical address that corresponds to the logical block may be set to point to an invalid address. A trim token that specifies the logical block may be generated. The trim token may be stored in a non-volatile storage contained in the storage device. | 04-03-2014 |
20140149640 | Adaptive Power Control of Memory Map Storage Devices - An apparatus includes a storage resource to store data. The data can be accessible by a host computer system. The apparatus includes a set of dynamically powered volatile memory devices that are configured to store mapping information. The mapping information maps logical addresses of received access requests to corresponding physical addresses of the storage resource to which the access requests pertain. In accordance with received mode setting information, the controller logic adaptively controls power settings of the volatile memory devices storing the mapping information. If an abundance of power such as 120 VAC power is available, more of volatile memory devices can be powered to store a greater portion of the mapping information. If only battery power is available, fewer than all of the volatile memory devices can be powered to store a smaller portion of the mapping information. | 05-29-2014 |
20140223231 | SOLID STATE DRIVE MANAGEMENT IN POWER LOSS RECOVERY - Embodiments of the present disclosure describe devices, methods, computer-readable media and systems configurations for solid state drive management in power loss recovery. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed. | 08-07-2014 |
