Abstract
One method for improving the utility of solid-state storage media within a solid state storage device includes referencing one or more storage media characteristics for a set of storage cells of the solid-state storage media. The method also includes determining a configuration parameter for the set of storage cells based on the one or more storage media characteristics. The method includes configuring the set of storage cells to use the determined configuration parameter. The configuration parameter includes a parameter of the set of storage cells modifiable by a module external to the solid-state storage device by way of an interface. The module external to the solid-state storage device includes a device driver executing on a host device.
