Abstract

Technologies for managing an operational characteristic of a solid state drive include monitoring the operational characteristic to determine whether the operational characteristic satisfies a low threshold and a high threshold. If the operational characteristic does satisfy the low threshold, the solid state drive throttles high power memory accesses requests while not throttle low power memory access requests. If the operational characteristic satisfies a high threshold, the solid state drive is configured to throttle all memory accesses. The operational characteristic may be embodied as, for example, a temperature of the solid state drive.
