Abstract

See full text

A Solid State Drive (SSD) (505) may include circuitry to receive data from streams (305, 320, 335, 350). Each stream (305, 320, 335, 350) may have a Time-To-Live (TTL) (310, 325, 340, 355). Selection logic (525) may select a stream (305, 320, 335, 350) to write to a block (103). Writing logic (530) may then write data from the selected stream (905) to the block (103). The SSD (505) may change which stream (305, 320, 335, 350) is written to the block (103) over time. As a result, the data stored in the block (103) should expire sooner overall, making garbage collection of the block (103) more efficient.
