Abstract
An aspect includes data backup management between volatile memory and non-volatile memory in a through-silicon via module of a computer system. Data is copied data from the volatile memory to the non-volatile memory during a refresh cycle of the volatile memory. The data is written to one or more non-volatile memory cells within the non-volatile memory prior to a next refresh cycle of the volatile memory.
