    Abstract: A data protecting method for a rewritable non-volatile memory module is provided. The method includes assigning a plurality of physical pages into a plurality of encoding groups to group a first physical page to a first encoding group and group a second physical page to a second encoding group, where each of the physical pages stores user data and a parity code corresponding to the user data, the first physical page is composed of memory cells of a first word line, and the second physical page is composed of memory cells of a second word line adjacent to the first word line. The method also includes respectively encoding the user data in the physical pages of the encoding groups for generating a plurality of group parity codes respectively corresponding to the encoding groups.

    Abstract: A memory management method for a rewritable non-volatile memory module is provided. The method includes: selecting at least one first physical erasing unit from at least part of physical erasing units according to a first parameter. The method further includes: selecting a second physical erasing unit from the at least one first physical erasing unit according to a second parameter, wherein the second parameter is different from the first parameter; and copying at least part of data stored in the second physical erasing unit to a third physical erasing unit.

    Abstract: A method for accessing a buffer memory in a memory storage device is provided, wherein the buffer memory, which has a plurality of write buffer units, is equipped in the memory storage device having a rewritable non-volatile memory module. The method includes: receiving a write data from a host system and determining whether the number of used write buffer unit is smaller than a predefined value or not. The method also includes: if the number of the used write buffer unit is not smaller than the predefined value, temporarily storing the write data into one of the write buffer unit which is not being used and transmitting a confirmation message corresponding to the write data to the host system after a predefined time interval. Therefore, the method can reduce the latency of write operations of the host system.

    Abstract: A memory management method, a memory control circuit unit and a memory storage apparatus are provided. The method includes: receiving a first write command and writing data corresponding to the first write command into a first spare physical erasing unit; detecting an amount of second spare physical erasing units excluding the first spare physical erasing unit; determining whether the amount of the second spare physical erasing units is less than a threshold value; and performing a first procedure if the amount of the second spare physical erasing units is less than the threshold value. The first procedure includes: moving valid data in the physical erasing units into at least one third spare physical erasing unit; and adjusting the threshold value from a first threshold value to a second threshold value.
