Abstract

A method of handling internal operations of a storage device includes in response to information derived from one or more commands received from a host device when the storage device is coupled to the host device, determining whether a sequence of commands is in one of an active state, and a first transition state, where in the first transition state the sequence of commands is transitioning from an inactive state to the active state. The method includes, while the sequence of commands is in the active state or in the first transition state, refraining from executing any operation of a first set of internal memory management operations, each of the first set of internal memory management operations being an extra-sequence operation.
