Abstract
A method for performing a sudden power-off recovery operation of a controller controlling a memory device, the method includes: obtaining open block information for open blocks of the memory device and read counts for the open blocks; updating each of the read counts by adding a set value to each of the read counts; storing the updated read counts in the memory device; sequentially reading pages in each of the open blocks without updating the read counts for the open blocks, based on the open block information, to detect a boundary page after the storing of the updated read counts in the memory device; and controlling the memory device to program dummy data in the detected boundary page.
