NAND temperature-aware operations
Devices and techniques for NAND temperature-aware operations are disclosed herein. A device controller can receive a command to write data to a component in the device. A temperature corresponding to the component can be obtained in response to receiving the command. The command can be executed by the controller to write data to the component. Executing the command can include writing the temperature into a management portion of the device that is separate from a user portion of the device to which the data is written.
