STORAGE DEVICE, CONTROLLER AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING GLOBAL WEAR-LEVELING

A storage device, a controller, and a method for performing global wear-leveling may count write counts of a plurality of respective cores in each of a plurality of logical areas each including logical block address groups of the plurality of cores, determine, on the basis of degradation counts of the plurality of cores, a first core and a second core for which data swap is to be performed, determine a target logical area among the plurality of logical areas on the basis of a write count of the first core and a write count of the second core, and perform data swap between a first logical block address group of the first core included in the target logical area and a second logical block address group of the second core included in the target logical area.
