Abstract
Systems and methods for reducing problems and disadvantages associated with traditional approaches to preconditioning solid-state devices are provided. A method may include storing at least one preconditioning status parameter indicative of at least one variable associated with preconditioning emulation of a solid state device (SSD) including a flash memory. The method may also include modifying a mapping table based on the at least one preconditioning status parameter to emulate preconditioning of the SSD, the mapping table including information for translating virtual logical block addresses (LBAs) of the SSD as seen by the processor into physical LBAs of the flash memory.
