Abstract
Disclosed are systems and methods for proactively, instead of reactively, biasing parameters of a data storage device based on a spatial position in a storage enclosure. The method includes obtaining a spatial position for the data storage device in a storage enclosure. The method also includes proactively biasing one or more parameters for controlling the device memory, based on the spatial position. The spatial position has a corresponding thermal profile that is predetermined.
Claims20
A data storage device, comprising:
- a device memory;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- obtain a spatial position for the data storage device in a storage enclosure;
- and
- proactively bias one or more parameters for controlling the device memory, based on the spatial position,
- wherein:
- the spatial position has a corresponding thermal profile;
- and
- the corresponding thermal profile is predetermined.
A method implemented using one or more controllers for one or more data storage devices, the method comprising:
- obtaining a spatial position for the data storage device in a storage enclosure;
- and
- proactively biasing one or more parameters for controlling a device memory, based on the spatial position,
- wherein:
- the spatial position has a corresponding thermal profile;
- and
- the corresponding thermal profile is predetermined.
A system, comprising:
- means for obtaining a spatial position for a data storage device in a storage enclosure;
- and
- means for proactively biasing one or more parameters for controlling a device memory, based on the spatial position,
- wherein:
- the spatial position has a corresponding thermal profile;
- and
- the corresponding thermal profile is predetermined.
