Abstract:
A method includes determining respective valid translation unit counts of a block of non-volatile memory cells over a period of time, determining a rate of change of the respective valid translation unit counts of the block of non-volatile memory cells over the period of time, comparing the rate of change of the valid translation unit counts to a bin transition rate, and based on comparing the rate of change of the valid translation unit counts to the bin transition rate, performing a media management operation on the block of non-volatile memory cells.
