A method includes receiving, by a processing device, an indication that a media management operation performed with respect to a block of a memory sub-system satisfies a performance condition, wherein the block maintains first data stored using a first write mode, in response to receiving the indication, determining, by the processing device, that a cache block of a cache area of the memory sub-system satisfies an endurance condition, wherein the cache block maintains second data stored using a second write mode, and changing, by the processing device, a write mode for the cache block from the second write mode to the first write mode responsive to determining that the cache block satisfies the endurance condition.
