Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method for managing overprovisioning in a solid state storage drive array comprises receiving usage data from each of a plurality of solid state storage drives, determining a predicted service life value for each of the plurality of solid state storage drives based on at least the usage data, comparing each of the predicted service life values with a predetermined service life value for each respective solid state storage drive, and dynamically adjusting an available logical storage capacity for at least one of the plurality of solid state storage drives based on a result of the step of comparing. In one embodiment, dynamically adjusting the available logical storage capacity for the at least one of the plurality of solid state storage drives comprises increasing the available logical capacity of that solid state storage drive based on the result that the predicted service life value for that solid state storage drive is greater than the predetermined service life value for that solid state storage drive.

Claim (Index 9):
The method of  claim 8 , wherein determining the predicted raw bit error ratio distribution is based on a current raw bit error ratio distribution and a number of program/erase cycles predicted to have occurred at a predetermined future time in that solid state storage drive.
