Abstract
Technology is disclosed for reading non-volatile memory when a host does not need perfect data. By allowing the memory to return data with some errors, the data will be provided to the host much quicker. Therefore, in response to one or more host read commands, the memory system returns multiple copies of the data over time, progressively getting better so that later in time copies of the data have lower number of errors. The host decides when the error rate is good enough and stops the process (or ignores the rest of the results).
