Abstract

The invention introduces a method for handling sudden power off recovery, performed by a processing unit of an electronic apparatus, to include: driving a flash interface to program data sent by a host into pseudo single-level cell (pSLC) blocks of multiple logical unit numbers (LUNs) in a single-level cell (SLC) mode with multiple channels after detecting that the electronic apparatus has suffered a sudden power off (SPO). The pSLC blocks are reserved from being written any data in regular operations until the SPO is detected.
