Abstract
Fast Address to Sector Number/Offset Translation to Support Odd Sector Size Testing. A machine-implemented method of determining a sector number from a given address for testing a solid state drive (SSD), wherein the SSD sector size is not an integral power of 2, includes determining an approximate sector size as the closest power of 2 less than the sector size and determining an error factor as the ratio of the approximate sector size divided by the sector size. The method also includes forming the sector number by shifting the address right by the base 2 logarithm of the approximate sector size.
