Devices and techniques for managing flash memory are disclosed herein. A memory controller may receive a first program request comprising first host data to be written to the flash memory. The flash memory may comprise a number of storage units with each storage unit comprising a number of storage sub-units. If the first host data is less than a remainder threshold, the memory controller may generate a first program data unit comprising the first host data and first log data describing the flash memory. The memory controller may program the program data unit to the first storage unit of the flash memory, where the first log data is written to a first storage sub-unit of the number of storage sub-unit. The memory controller may also store an indication that the first storage sub-unit is invalid.
