Abstract

A method for using a partitioned flash transition layer is disclosed. Step (A) receives, at an apparatus from a host, a write command having first write data. Step (B) generates second write data by compressing the first write data in the apparatus. The second write data generally has a variable size. Step (C) stores the second write data at a physical location in a nonvolatile memory. The physical location is a next unwritten location. Step (D) returns, from the apparatus to the host in response to the write command, an indication of the physical location.
