Abstract

A memory device includes a memory component and controller circuitry. The memory component stores data and the controller circuitry receives, from a host electronic device, one or more commands of a memory system protocol. The one or more commands include at least one write command, the write command comprising one or more blocks of data to be stored in the memory component. Further, the one or more commands include metadata, attributes, or both related to the one or more blocks of data. The controller circuitry interprets and executes the one or more commands. Accordingly, the blocks are stored in the memory component. Further, the controller circuitry of the memory device has access to the metadata, attributes or both.
