Zusammenfassung:A system having input/output hot spot tracking is disclosed. The storage system includes a storage device, a host controller coupled to the storage device, and a tracking engine coupled to the host controller and the storage device. The host controller is configured to managed input/output of the storage device. The tracking engine includes a storage map cycling between active status and passive status.
