There is provided an operation method of a memory system which includes a host and a storage device, and the operation method includes allocating a portion of a host memory included in the host for a host memory buffer to be used by a controller of the storage device, setting a set feature command such that the host memory buffer is enabled, setting a retention command including information about a response speed of the host memory buffer, selecting an operation mode of the host memory buffer, based on the retention command, and selecting one of a plurality of power states, which the controller supports, based on a performance objective of the operation mode of the host memory buffer.

Memory system using host memory buffer and operation method thereof

An operation method of a storage device configured to communicate with an external device through an interface channel includes receiving an indicator of a first throttling level of a plurality of throttling levels from the external device, setting a first operation parameter based on a throttling predefined table (PDT) including a relationship between the plurality of throttling levels and a plurality of throttling performances, such that the interface channel has a first throttling performance from among the plurality of throttling performances, the first throttling performance corresponding to the first throttling level, receiving a first input/output (I/O) request from the external device through the interface channel having the first throttling performance caused by the setting of the first operation parameter, and processing a first operation corresponding to the first I/O request through the interface channel having the first throttling performance.
