Abstract

Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems include a memory controller receiving a first physical address corresponding to a logical address and data and initiating storage of the data at the first physical address. The memory controller sends a message indicating that the data has been successfully stored at the first physical address before determining if the data was successfully stored at the first physical address. Upon determining that the data failed to store at the first physical address, the memory controller retrieves the data from a volatile memory associated with the first physical address. The memory controller sends a request and receives a second physical address for the retrieved data. The memory controller initiates storage of the data at the second physical address.
