The proactive configuration module 424 references one or more storage media characteristics for a set of storage cells to determine a configuration parameter for the set of storage cells. A storage media characteristic is a statistic, heuristic, or other descriptor associated with an attribute of the solid-state storage media 110. A storage media characteristic for a set of storage cells may be substantially static or may be dynamic and change over time. A storage media characteristic, in one embodiment, includes or relates to a make, a model, a manufacturer, a product version, or the like for the solid-state storage device 102 and/or for the solid-state storage media 110. In another embodiment, a storage media characteristic describes an attribute or statistic for a set of particular storage cells, such as a program/erase cycle count for the set of storage cells, a read count for the set of storage cells, a retention time since a previous write for the set of storage cells, an error statistic for the set of storage cells, or the like. A storage media characteristic, in a further embodiment, may include or relate to an environmental condition or a use of the solid-state storage device 102 and/or of the solid-state storage media 110, such as a temperature, a use case (e.g. a cache use case, an archival use case, a server use case, an enterprise use case, a consumer use case, etc.), or the like.
