Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for monitoring power usage and temperature within a data storage device, and adjusting performance based on the power usage and temperature. In certain embodiments, an apparatus may comprise a data storage device (DSD) having an interface to communicate with a host device, and a circuit. The circuit may be configured to receive a first limit designation for a first operating parameter of the DSD via the interface, monitor a value of the first operating parameter of the DSD, evaluate a pending workload of operations to be performed by the DSD, estimate a future value of the first operating parameter based on the pending workload, and adjust performance of the DSD based on the future value and the first limit designation.
