Abstract
Provided are techniques for resuming storage die programming after power loss. In response to receipt of an indication of the power loss, data that was to be programmed to multi-level cell NAND blocks are copied to single level cell NAND blocks and a pulse number at which programming was interrupted is stored. In response to receipt of an indication to resume from the power loss, the data is copied from the single level cell NAND blocks to a page buffer, the pulse number is retrieved, and programming of the multi-level cell NAND blocks is resumed at the retrieved pulse number using the data in the page buffer.
