Abstract

A Data Storage Device (DSD) is represented by an embedding for virtual testing. A plurality of metrics is obtained for components of the DSD and is encoded into the embedding using a first Artificial Intelligence (AI) model. The embedding is provided as an input to a second AI model configured for virtual testing based on one or more simulated DSD workloads. In one aspect, virtual testing is performed for at least one DSD component by obtaining at least one metric for the at least one component for encoding into an embedding representing a virtual DSD including the at least one component. In another aspect, the embedding is provided to a DSD operator for virtual testing. In yet another aspect, the second AI model simulates at least one workload of the DSD operator or for one or more quality assurance tests of a DSD manufacturer.
