A data storage device and a method of operating the same are provided. The data storage device includes a first non-volatile memory device, a second non-volatile memory device, and a management module. The management module receives a multi-access command including first and second physical addresses which are different from each other from a host, generates and sends a first access command including the first physical address to the first non-volatile memory device, and generates and sends a second access command including the second physical address to the second non-volatile memory device. The data storage device performs the first and second access commands on the first and second physical addresses, respectively.

Method of accessing a data storage device using a multi-access command

A data storage device and a method of operating the same are provided. The data storage device includes a first non-volatile memory device, a second non-volatile memory device, and a management module. The management module receives, from a host, an external multi-access command including first and second physical addresses which are different from each other, generates and sends a first access command including the first physical address to the first non-volatile memory device, and generates and sends a second access command including the second physical address to the second non-volatile memory device. The data management module performs operations on the first and second non-volatile memory devices based on the first and second access commands and the first and second physical addresses, respectively. The data storage device may be a solid state drive (SSD) including NAND flash memory, and the multi-access command may be a multi-write, multi-read, or multi-erase command.

Data storage device and method including receiving an external multi-access command and generating first and second access commands for first and second nonvolatile memories

A method of controlling a storage device comprises monitoring whether a quality of service (QoS) of the storage device satisfies a quality condition set through a host, and adjusting a current setting of at least one operation metric of the storage device related to the QoS, according to a result of the monitoring.
