Abstract
A method for managing a memory apparatus including a non-volatile (NV) memory element having a plurality of physical blocks includes: obtaining a first host address and first data from a first access command; obtaining a second host address and second data from a second access command; linking the first host address to a first page of the physical block and the second host address to a second page of the physical block; storing the first data and second data into the physical block; building a valid page position table and storing the valid page position table in the volatile memory; and building a global page address linking table and storing the global page address linking table in the volatile memory. The valid page position table and the global page address linking table are loaded from the volatile memory and stored to the NV memory element at predetermined time periods.
