Abstract
An amount of valid data for each data block of multiple data blocks stored at a first memory is determined. An operation to write valid data of a particular data block from the first memory to a second memory is performed based on the amount of valid data for each data block. A determination is made that a threshold condition associated with when valid data of the data blocks was written to the first memory has been satisfied. In response to determining that the threshold condition has been satisfied, the operation to write valid data of the data blocks from the first memory to the second memory is performed based on when the valid data was written to the first memory.
