Abstract:
A system includes a selection module, a control module, an erasing module, and a read/write module. The selection module is configured to select X of Y memory blocks (i) based on fullness of the X memory blocks and (ii) in response to a write command, where X and Y are integers greater than or equal to 1. The Y memory blocks are located in first memory. The control module is configured to store first data from the X memory blocks in second memory. The erasing module is configured to erase the first data from the X memory blocks. The read/write module is configured to write second data to the X memory blocks based on the write command.
