Abstract
This disclosure is directed to a system for fast-cycling a memory device. The system receives a fast-cycling start command to initiate a fast-cycling mode for the set of memory devices, the fast-cycling mode accelerating program-erase counts (PECs) of memory blocks to an end-of-life (EOL) condition, the EOL condition comprising a threshold number of PECs. The system, in response to receiving the fast-cycling start command, enables a standalone mode for an individual memory device of the set of memory devices that prevents the individual memory device from servicing host input/output requests. The system executes fast-cycling operations on the individual memory device until the EOL condition is satisfied.
