Abstract
The present disclosure provides methods for copying a data page in a flash memory device using a flash memory controller. A method may comprise receiving, at the host flash controller, a copy command from a host processor, in response to the copy command, transmitting a read command to the unmanaged flash memory storage device via a bus, wherein the read command indicates particular data, receiving the particular data from the unmanaged flash memory storage device via the bus, storing the particular data in a data buffer included in the host flash controller, and transmitting to the unmanaged flash memory storage device, via the bus, a write command to write the particular data.
