The SLC memory cells serve as a high-speed cache providing SLC level performance with the storage capacity of a memory device with MLC memory cells. The proportion of cells configured as MLC vs the proportion that are configured as SLC storage may be configurable, and in some examples, the proportion may change during usage based upon configurable rules based upon memory device metrics. In some examples, when the device activity is below an activity threshold, the memory device may skip the SLC cache and place the data directly into the MLC storage to reduce power consumption."},"analysis":{"summary":null,"layman_explanation":null,"technical_analysis":null,"business_analysis":null,"faqs":null,"topics":[],"tech_cluster":null},"seo":{"title":"SLC cache management","description":"Disclosed in some examples are memory devices which feature customizable Single Level Cell (SLC) and Multiple Level Cell (MLC) configurations.
