View Edit Delete	US-8380915-A1	An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed to manage solid-state storage media by determining one or more configuration parameters for the solid-state storage media. A media characteristic module references one or more storage media characteristics for a set of storage cells of solid-state storage media. A configuration parameter module determines a configuration parameter for the set of storage cells based on the one or more storage media characteristics. A storage cell configuration module configures the set of storage cells to use the determined configuration parameter.	341	Added by DJM 3 2021	3/12/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	US-8380915-A1	In the depicted embodiment, the data set read module 402 includes a monitor module 418 and a read error module 420. The data set read module 402, in one embodiment, may read the data set using the monitor module 418 and/or the read error module 420.	190	Added by DJM 3 2021	3/12/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	US-8380915-A1	In embodiments where the known bias includes a pattern of bits, multi-bit binary symbols, or the like, the deviation module 404 may perform a transform on bits of the data set, may analyze a subset of bits of the data set, or the like to determine whether the read bias of the data set deviates from the known bias. For example, the deviation module 404 may perform a transform based on an encoding type used for storage cells of the solid-state storage media 110, such as a Gray code encoding type, a binary code encoding type, or the like. The transform, in certain embodiments, may be based on a physical and/or electrical architecture of the storage cells of the storage media 110.	199	Added by DJM 3 2021	3/12/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	US-8380915-A1	The deviation module 404, in one embodiment, determines whether the read bias of the data set deviates from the known bias by comparing the read bias to the known bias. The deviation module 404 may compare the read bias to the known bias by counting the number of binary ones and the number of binary zeroes in the data set to determine the ratio of binary ones and binary zeroes in the data set and comparing that ratio to a ratio of the known bias. In a further embodiment, the deviation module 404 may search for and/or count the occurrences of an expected pattern or other expected attribute of the known bias and compare the results of a similar search and/or count in the data set to the expected attribute. In certain embodiments, the ECC decoder 322 indicates to the deviation module 404 that the read bias of the data set deviates from the known bias by providing an error bias for the data set to the configuration module 352, or the like.	198	Added by DJM 3 2021	3/12/21, 12:00 AM
