METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AUTHENTICATING A NON-VOLATILE MEMORY DEVICE

摘要

A method and an apparatus for authenticating a non-volatile memory device are provided. The method includes sending, to the memory device, a request for an Enhanced Media Identification (EMID) for identifying the memory device, by an EMID decoder for authenticating the memory device; receiving the requested EMID changed by a preset calculation of the EMID with an optional value from the memory device; and restoring the EMID by decoding the received changed EMID.
