User configurable SLC memory size

Abstract

An embodiment of an electronic apparatus may include one or more substrates; and a controller coupled to the one or more substrates, the controller including logic to control access to a NAND-based storage media that includes a first cell region with a first number of levels and a second region with a second number of levels that is different from the first number of levels, determine logical block address locations that correspond to a user configurable capacity placeholder, and adjust respective sizes of the first cell region and the second cell region at runtime based on the logical block address locations. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
