Abstract
An embodiment of an electronic apparatus may include one or more substrates, and a controller coupled to the one or more substrates, the controller including circuitry to control access to NAND-based storage media that includes a plurality of NAND devices, maintain respective read disturb (RD) counters for each of two or more tracked units at respective granularities, maintain respective global RD counters for each of the two or more tracked units and, in response to a read request, increment one or more global RD counters that correspond to the read request, determine if a global RD counter for a tracked unit matches a random number associated with the tracked unit and, if so determined, increment a RD counter for the tracked unit that corresponds to the read request and generate a new random number for the tracked unit. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
