A data storage device includes a storage medium, a first buffer memory, a second buffer memory, and a controller. The controller is configured to control data input/output for the storage medium according to requests received from a host device and to store write data in the first and second buffer memories in response to a write request received from the host device.

Provided is a method of crystallizing an amorphous silicon thin film transistor and a method of fabricating a polycrystalline thin film transistor using the same, in which the polycrystalline thin film transistor indicating leakage current characteristics of a level that is applicable for active matrix organic light emitting diode displays (AMOLEDs) can be manufactured by using a silicide seed induced lateral crystallization (SILC) method. The amorphous silicon thin film transistor crystallizing method includes the steps of: forming an amorphous silicon layer on a substrate; forming an active region by patterning the amorphous silicon layer; forming a crystallization induced metal layer in both a source region and a drain region that are placed on both side ends of the active region; forming a number of dot-shaped metal silicide seeds on the surfaces of the source region and the drain region made of amorphous silicon by removing the crystallization induced metal layer; and crystallizing the active region formed of the amorphous silicon layer by heat-treating the substrate by using the metal silicide seeds as crystallization seeds.
