Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for enhancing the endurance of a Universal Flash Storage (UFS) device by providing a UFS pinned region relocation mechanism that relocates the UFS pinned region of the write booster buffer to a portion of the write booster buffer that was previously part of a non-pinned region of the write booster buffer based on an indication of the health of the UFS pinned region. The UFS pinned region of the write booster buffer may be relocated to a portion of the previously non-pinned region of the write booster buffer that is determined to have the lowest endurance of all portions of the previously non-pinned region.
