EFFICIENT SOLID STATE DRIVE DATA COMPRESSION SCHEME AND LAYOUT

摘要

Methods and apparatus related to efficient Solid State Drive (SSD) data compression scheme and layout are described. In one embodiment, logic, coupled to non-volatile memory, receives data (e.g., from a host) and compresses the data to generate compressed data prior to storage of the compressed data in the non-volatile memory. The compressed data includes a compressed version of the data, size of the compressed data, common meta information, and final meta information. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
