Abstract
A method includes receiving, by a storage device and from a host device, a set of protocol parameters initialized by the host device. The set of protocol parameters are used to facilitate data transfer between the host device and the storage device. The method also includes determining that a threshold value associated with the data transfer between the host device and the storage device has been satisfied. The method further includes, in response to determining that the threshold value has been satisfied, sending, by the storage device and to the host device, the set of protocol parameters that were received from the host device.
