Abstract

Implementations described herein relate to a two-stage emergency data storing operation. In some implementations, a memory device may detect a power loss notification signal that indicates a power loss condition of the memory device. The memory device may read a mode register bit of the memory device that indicates to perform a data storing operation that includes a first data storing stage and a second data storing stage. The first data storing stage may include storing data associated with the memory device prior to the memory device experiencing a power loss, and the second data storing stage may include storing data and metadata associated with the memory device prior to the memory device experiencing the power loss. The memory device may initiate the data storing operation and may selectively acknowledge the power loss condition based on completing the first data storing stage or the second data storing stage.
