Paragraph Number

253

In certain embodiments, the configuration parameter module 504 may determine a configuration parameter for one set of storage cells based on a target set of storage cells. The target set of storage cells may have known and/or controlled use characteristics (e.g. storage media characteristics or the like) that the configuration parameter module 504 uses to determine a configuration parameter for another set of storage cells. In particular, the configuration parameter module 504 may compare storage media characteristics of the target set of storage cells to storage media characteristics of a set of storage cells presently being configured. Such a comparison can be used to further optimize the determined configuration parameter for the set of storage cells. The target set of storage cells may store known data, such as metadata, system data, a known pattern of data, or the like, and the configuration parameter module 504 may determine a configuration parameter for another set of data based on the known data.
