A method writes data in a non-volatile memory. The method provides, in the memory, a non-volatile main memory area comprising target pages, a non-volatile auxiliary memory area comprising auxiliary pages, and, in the auxiliary memory area: a current sector comprising erased auxiliary pages usable to write data, a save sector comprising auxiliary pages comprising data linked to target pages to be erased or being erased, a transfer sector comprising auxiliary pages including data to be transferred to erased target pages, and an unavailable sector comprising auxiliary pages to be erased or being erased. The method can be applied in particular to FLASH memories.
