Abstract
Aspects of a storage device including a memory and a controller are provided. The controller may receive a prefetch request to retrieve data for a host having a promoted stream. The controller may access a frozen time table indicating hosts for which data has been prefetched and frozen times associated with the host and other hosts. The controller can determine whether the host has a higher priority over other hosts included in the frozen time table based on corresponding frozen times and data access parameters associated with the host. The controller may determine to prefetch the data for the host in response to the prefetch request when the host has a higher priority than the other hosts. The controller can receive a host read command associated with the promoted stream from the host and provide the prefetched data to the host in response to the host read command.
