Abstract

A storage device having improved data recovery performance includes a memory device including a first storage region and a second storage region, and a memory controller that controls the memory device. Before performing a write operation in the first storage region, the memory controller may backup data previously stored in the first storage region, based on a fail probability of the write operation to be performed in the first storage region. If the write operation fails, the previously-stored data may be recovered from where it was backed up.
