Abstract

Management information for managing thermal conditions within an information handling system is retrieved from a storage device drive information area by request to a logical block address associated with the management information. The controller of the storage device maps the logical block address to the drive information area to respond to the request to the logical block address with the management information. For example, storage device temperature information measured with a temperature sensor of the storage device and stored to a log page or diagnostics page of the storage device maps from the drive information area to the logical block address so that a controller of the storage device responds with the log page or diagnostics page when a request is made to the logical block address.
