Abstract

The present disclosure generally relates to improved host memory buffer (HMB) segment selection at the initialization phase. Rather than selecting an HMB segment strictly on one parameter, the selection process will consider multiple factors of the HMB segments. Instead of just selecting a HMB segments based on the size of the HMB segment, the data storage device will perform some basic performance measurements on the provided HMB segments before selecting HMB segments. The selection will be based also on the performance results from the various experiments. The experiments are performed in the initialization phase so the performance of the solid state drive (SSD) will not be impacted. The basic experiments include read, write, and mixed operations toward the HMB segments while measuring the performance and QoS.
