Abstract

Disclosed are a system and a method for address translation for a flash memory device, and particularly, disclosed is a technology that is capable of efficiently performing address translation between a logical address provided to the outside of a flash memory and a physical address of an actual flash memory in managing the flash memory device. The system includes: a flash memory system writing a corresponding data page by allocating a physical address space when there is a request for writing a data page from storage clients, and performing address translation between a physical address and a logical address; and a logical address space formed between the flash memory system and the storage client to provide the logical address.
