Abstract:
A die read counter and a block read counter are maintained for a specified block of a memory device. An estimated number of read events associated with the specified block is determined based on a value of the block read counter and a value of the die read counter. Responsive to determining that the estimated number of read events satisfies a criterion, a media management operation of one or more pages associated with the specified block is performed.
