Claim 0:
1. A data storage device, comprising:
a non-volatile memory device including a memory block, the memory block including a plurality of memory dies;
an environmental observer configured to determine one or more environmental parameters associated with the data storage device; and
a controller coupled to the non-volatile memory device and configured to:
monitor a temperature of the data storage device,
determine whether the monitored temperature exceeds a first temperature threshold,
perform a default thermal throttling operation based on the monitored temperature exceeding the first temperature threshold,
determine whether the monitored temperature exceeds a second temperature threshold,
perform a customized thermal throttling operation based on the monitored temperature exceeding the second temperature threshold, and
update the customized thermal throttling operation based on the determined environmental parameters.
