Abstract
High-efficiency control technology for non-volatile memory is shown. A controller transfers valid data from a first source block to an active block in sections and, between segmented data transfers, the controller writes data issued by the host to the active block. When no second source block is waiting, the controller transfers a first amount of valid data from the first source block to the active block in each segmented data transfer. When a second source block is waiting, the controller transfers a second amount of valid data from the first source block to the active block in each segmented data transfer. The second amount is larger than the first amount and thereby the data transfer for the first source block speeds up.
