The various embodiments described herein include methods and/or devices used to protect data in a storage device. In one aspect, a method includes performing a power fail operation on a first section of the storage device, the first section of the storage device comprising one or more memory group modules. The power fail operation includes supplying power, via one or more energy storage devices, to the one or more memory group modules, where each memory group module includes a respective memory group module controller. The power fail operation also includes supplying power, via an additional energy storage device, to a storage device controller, the storage device controller corresponding to the first section of the storage device. The additional energy storage device is distinct from the one or more energy storage devices and each are distinct from a power source used during normal operation of the storage device.
A storage device, comprising:
A method of protecting data in a storage device comprising volatile memory and non-volatile memory, the method comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium, storing one or more programs for execution by one or more processors of a storage device, the one or more programs including instructions for:
