Abstract
A method for operating a controller that controls a memory device includes: replacing a bad block of a superblock with a replacement block to form a reproduced superblock; controlling the memory device to perform a program operation on the reproduced superblock according to an interleaving scheme; moving data stored in the replacement block to a pseudo-replacement block when the program operation on the reproduced superblock is completed; and releasing the replacement block from the reproduced superblock.
