Abstract

Apparatuses, systems, and methods are disclosed for managing lifetime for a data storage device. A target module determines a write bandwidth target for a data storage device. An audit module monitors write bandwidth of the data storage device relative to the write bandwidth target. A throttle module adjusts execution of one or more write operations on the data storage device in response to the write bandwidth of the data storage device failing to satisfy the write bandwidth target.
