Enhanced write performance for non-volatile memories including a memory system that includes a receiver for receiving a data rate of a data sequence to be written to a non-volatile flash memory device. The memory system also includes a physical page selector for selecting a physical address of an invalid previously written memory page from a group of physical addresses of invalid previously written memory pages located on the non-volatile memory device, and for determining if the number of free bits in the invalid previously written memory page at the selected physical address is greater than or equal to the data rate. The memory system also includes a transmitter for outputting the selected physical address of the invalid previously written memory page, the outputting in response to the physical page selector determining that the number of free bits is greater than or equal to the data rate.
