Abstract
A memory system having a set of non-volatile media, a volatile memory, a buffer memory, and a controller configured to process requests from a host system to store data in the non-volatile media or retrieve data from the non-volatile media. The buffer memory is capable of holding data for at least a predetermined period of time after the volatile memory loses data during an event of power outage in the memory system. A power manager monitors a power supply of the memory system to detect an onset of power outage and, in response to the onset of power outage, causes the controller to copy meta data in the volatile memory to the buffer memory.
