Ssd system with consistent read performance

A storage device to ensure consistent performance when executing a read command provided by a host device that is communicatively coupled to the storage device, the storage device being communicatively coupled to a memory device including data, the storage device comprising:

• a controller to:
• receive a read instruction from a host, wherein the host monitors operations, being carried out on the storage device;
• receive an instruction from the host to suspend background operations and to execute the read instruction;
• suspend a background operation until a predefined resumption condition occurs, the background operation being to at least one of manage resources on the memory device and perform thermal throttling on the storage device;
• transmit a signal to the host when the resumption condition occurs;
• and
• resume processing the background operation based on a resumption instruction from the host.

A method to ensure consistent performance when executing a read command provided by a host device that is communicatively coupled to a storage device, the storage device being communicatively coupled to a memory device including data in the read command, the method comprises:

• executing a read instruction received by the storage device from the host device;
• executing, by the storage device, a background operation to at least one of manage resources on the memory device and perform thermal throttling on the storage device;
• and
• one of:
• executing, by the storage device, a formula including an interleave ratio to interleave host read operations with the background operation based on an operation time, and
• using one of a read temperature threshold, a preset slowdown percentage, and a read speed to optimize host read operations during thermal throttling to limit performance degradation during read operations.
