Abstract
A storage device includes a nonvolatile memory device including a plurality of zones, each of the plurality of zones including a plurality of logical addresses, and a storage controller configured to control the nonvolatile memory. The storage controller includes at least one buffer directly accessible by a host device, the buffer including at least one random write area and a write pointer. The host device may perform a write operation on the random write area without requiring an additional write command associated with the write operation to be executed between the host device and the nonvolatile memory device, thereby decreasing the write operation time.
