Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for memory can include techniques for identifying first quantities of write counts for a first plurality of super management units (SMUs) in a mapped region of a memory sub-system, identifying, by a hardware component of the memory sub-system, a first SMU of the first plurality that includes a fewest quantity of write counts of the first quantity of write counts, and performing a wear-leveling operation based at least in part on a first quantity of write counts of the first SMU of the first plurality in the mapped region being less than a second quantity of writes counts of a second SMU of a second plurality of SMUs in an unmapped region of the memory sub-system.
