Abstract

Technologies for identifying data stored on a solid state drive (“SSD”) device that correspond to data associated with a delete event, and marking the deleted data stored on the SSD as invalid such that the SSD can avoid unnecessary operations on the invalid data. Included are interfaces operable to communicate invalid data information providing a remove-on-delete command that provides invalid data information sufficient to identify the SSD data to be marked as invalid.
