Abstract

Provided herein may be a storage device and a method of operating the same. A memory controller for controlling a memory device including a plurality of memory blocks having improved read performance may include a random read workload control, unit configured to control a state of a random read workload such that the random read workload is in any one of a set state and a clear state depending on a random read count obtained by counting a number of random read requests that are inputted from an external host; and a random read processing unit configured to retrieve a physical address corresponding to a logical address of the respective random read requests depending on the state of the random read workload.
