Abstract
The following description is directed to managing a nonvolatile medium. The nonvolatile medium can be organized as a plurality of storage units. In one example, a method can include measuring read latencies for the individual storage units of the nonvolatile medium. A probability distribution of future read latencies for the nonvolatile medium can be estimated based on the measured read latencies for the individual storage units of the nonvolatile medium. Information can be moved from a particular storage unit of the nonvolatile medium to a different storage unit of the nonvolatile medium based on the estimated probability distribution of future read latencies for the nonvolatile medium.
