Technologies for scrambling functions in a column-addressable memory architecture includes a device having a memory and a circuitry. The memory includes a matrix storing individually addressable bit data, and the matrix is formed by rows and columns. The circuitry is to receive a request to perform a write operation of one or more bit values to one of the columns. The circuitry is further to determine a scrambler state at each location of the column, the location corresponding to a respective row and column index. The scrambler state is indicative of a function used to determine a value at the respective column location. Each of the bit values is scrambled as a function of the scrambler state for the respective column location and written thereto.

The present disclosure generally relates to creating new zones in a data storage device in a manner that ensures substantially even workload of the memory device storage locations. The data storage device can guide a host device to select a particular zone to open in zone namespace (ZNS) systems where the host device selects which zone to open. The data storage device tracks the workload of the various storage locations and create zones. The data storage device then provides selected zones having the least used storage locations with the idea of guiding the host device to select the zone having the least used storage locations. Thus, rather than utilizing a randomly selected unopened zone, the host will select, based upon guidance from the data storage device, zones that contain the least utilized storage location. In so doing, generally even workload of the memory device storage locations is achieved.

A respective write cycle count for each of a plurality of data units of a memory device is obtained. Based on the respective write cycle count, whether a data unit of the plurality of data units satisfies a media management criterion is determined. Responsive to determining that the respective write cycle count satisfies the media management criterion, a media management operation every first constant cycle count on the data unit is performed. Responsive to determining that the respective write cycle count does not satisfy the media management criterion, a media management operation every second constant cycle count on the data unit is performed. The second constant cycle count is less than the first constant count.

The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods for proactive corrective actions in memory based on a probabilistic data structure. A number of embodiments include a memory, and circuitry configured to input information associated with a subset of data stored in the memory into a probabilistic data structure and proactively determine, at least partially using the probabilistic data structure, whether to take a corrective action on the subset of data stored in the memory.

A descrambler receives data from a memory device. The descrambler calculates a sub-syndrome weight for multiple bits in each of the plurality of descrambled sequences using a set parity check matrix to generate multiple sub-syndrome weights, one for each of the plurality of descrambled sequences. The descrambler selects a sub-syndrome weight among the multiple sub-syndrome weights. The descrambler determines, as a correct scrambler sequence for descrambling the data, a scrambler sequence corresponding to the selected sub-syndrome weight, among the plurality of scrambler sequences.

A storage system has a resiliency scheme to enhance storage system performance. The storage system composes a RAID stripe. The storage system mixes an ordering of portions of the RAID stripe, based on reliability differences across zones of the solid-state memory. Each zone of the solid state memory corresponds to a type of solid state memory. The storage system writes the mixed ordering RAID stripe across the solid-state memory.

A memory sub-system periodically performs a first wear leveling operation using a direct mapping function on a data management unit of a memory component in the memory sub-system at a first frequency. The memory sub-system further periodically performs a second wear leveling operation using indirect mapping on a group of data management units of the memory component at a second frequency, wherein the second wear leveling operation is performed less frequently than the first wear leveling operation.
