Zusammenfassung:A controller can be directly coupled to a storage device and a memory device but not a host. The controller can monitor a plurality of regions of the memory device to determine whether the plurality of regions meet a criterion for fullness and responsive to determining that the plurality of regions meet the criterion, read data from the plurality of regions. The controller can, responsive to reading the data from the plurality of regions, store the data in the storage device and delete the data from the plurality of regions. The controller can further, responsive to storing the data, report to a host that the data has been moved from the memory device to the storage device. The controller can be implemented independent from the host.
