Zusammenfassung:A storage device and method for detecting and handling burst operations are provided. In one embodiment, a method for operating a storage device in burst mode is provided. The storage device senses a change in behavior of a host in communication with the storage device, determines whether the sensed change in behavior of the host is indicative of the host's need for the storage device to operate in burst mode by comparing the sensed change in behavior with prior changes in behavior that triggered prior burst modes in the storage device, and in response to determining that the sensed change in behavior of the host is indicative of the host's need for the storage device to operate in burst mode, operates the storage device in burst mode. Other embodiments are provided.
