Abstract:
In general, this disclosure relates to storage of logical blocks in a storage device. Aspects of this disclosure describe techniques to monitor the frequency of access of one or more logical blocks referenced by one or more logical block addresses. Based on the frequency of access, in non-limiting aspects of this disclosure, a controller may select one or more physical blocks of a common memory storage block. The storage device may store the logical blocks in the selected physical blocks.
