Abstract

A solid state drive includes DRAM logical flash and flash memory, in which system processor reads and writes only to the DRAM logical flash which minimizes writes to the flash memory. A method for operation of a solid state flash device includes writing, by a CPU, to a solid state drive by sending commands and data to DRAM logical flash using flash commands and formatting.
