Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure provide various techniques, apparatuses, and methods that can improve the memory resource utilization of a data storage device that uses nonvolatile memory (NVM) to store data. In some aspects, the data storage device can be provided with multiple write buffers to improve the write throughput of the device. In some aspects, the data storage device can use a utilization array to keep track of the utilization information of each write buffer. In some aspects, the data storage device can repurpose the memory of a write buffer with low utilization to serve an active logical unit which becomes full, thus preserving the function of the write buffer of the active logical unit.
