Abstract

A storage system has NVRAM (nonvolatile random-access memory), storage memory that includes SLC (single level cell) flash memory and QLC (quad level cell) flash memory, and a processor. The processor performs a method that includes determining that a size of a buffer of a storage system should be adjusted. The storage system comprises a non-volatile random-access memory (NVRAM), single level cell (SLC) flash memory, and quad level cell (QLC) flash memory. The buffer of the storage system comprises one or more of the NVRAM and a portion of the SLC flash memory. The method also includes adjusting the size of the buffer of the storage system to a first size.
