Abstract

An information handling system a first controller and a solid state drive. The first controller receives an indication that a forced shutdown of the information handling system has been initiated, and triggers a cache flush command in response to receiving the indication that the forced shutdown has been initiated. The solid state drive includes a memory to store data, a cache to buffer data prior to writing the data in the memory, and a second controller. The second controller receives the cache flush command, and flushes the cache by writing the data in the cache to the memory in response to the cache flush command being received.
