Abstract
A storage system includes two or more data storage devices and a controller coupled to the two or more data storage devices. Each data storage device of the two or more data storage devices includes zoned namespace (ZNS) architecture. The controller is configured to collect thermal statistics for each data storage device of the two or more data storage devices, analyze the collected thermal statistics, and designate a zone by selecting one or more dies within at least one data storage device of the two or more data storage devices based on the analyzed collected thermal statistics. The data storage device includes a memory device having a plurality of dies and a controller coupled to the memory device. The controller is configured to collect thermal statistics for each die of the plurality of dies, analyze the collected statistics, and allocate one or more dies to form a zone.
