Flash Memory Summit Presentation

As the universe of flash-based devices moves toward MLC NAND as the data storage medium of choice, issues of flash life, data retention, and IO/boot performance are coming to the fore. To ensure that your product design decisions will meet the requirement of the intended product life, you must have a solid understanding of the differences in low-level software managing the flash. In this talk you will learn how the technology actually works, what the difference is between static and dynamic wear-leveling, and how to identify the factors that impact wear leveling effectiveness. We will also discuss the impact of wear leveling on performance and how best to minimize potential downside risks.
