Abstract
A storage system uses blocks of memory that are sized larger than a size of a zone. This means that the storage system stores multiple zones in a given block. Storing zones with different zone properties in a given block can be problematic, so the storage system obtains zone property information for each zone and stores zones with similar zone properties in a given block.
