Abstract
A processing device of a system receives a request to access a selected sector in a memory component. The selected sector is associated with a sector number. The processing device determines a virtual block corresponding to the selected sector. The virtual block is associated with a misalignment factor and a misalignment counter. The processing device determines if the misalignment counter satisfies a threshold criterion. In response to the misalignment counter satisfying the threshold criterion, the processing device generates an updated sector number by shifting the sector number by the misalignment factor and performs the access to the selected sector using the updated sector number. In response to the misalignment counter not satisfying the threshold criterion, the processing device updates the misalignment counter and performs the access to the selected sector using the sector number.
