Abstract
Provided are methods, apparatuses, systems, and computer-readable storage media for reducing an open time of a solid-state drive (SSD). In an embodiment, a method includes dividing a logical-to-physical (L2P) address mapping table of the SSD into a plurality of segments. The method further includes assigning one journal buffer of a plurality of journal buffers to each segment of the plurality of segments. The method further includes recreating, during a power on sequence of the SSD, a portion of the plurality of segments by replaying a first subset of the plurality of journal buffers. The method further includes sending, to a host device, a device-ready signal upon successful recreation of the portion of the plurality of segments. The method further includes recreating, in a background mode, a remaining portion of the plurality of segments by replaying a second subset of the plurality of journal buffers.
