Abstract
A power recovery technique for a data storage device having a non-volatile memory and a control unit is provided. When the data storage device regains power, the control unit writes dummy data to the nonvolatile memory, starting from the next page of a final page indicated by a final page indicator until the first word line group is finished. The first word line group contains an empty page indicated by an empty page indicator. In this manner, user data is protected from being written to an unreliable area.
