Abstract
A data storage device includes a memory device that includes a plurality of zones of a zoned namespace and a controller coupled to the memory device. During operation, the controller maintains a window-based read and write monitor data structure to determine the read density and write density of each of the zones. The read density and write density are utilized to determine a cost for allocating wear leveling data for each zone. Based on the cost and the available storage capacity of the storage class memory, data, in a data management operation, is moved to either the storage class memory or the zone with the low cost. The host device is informed of the storage class memory usage for future data management operations.
