Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for data defragmentation control are described. A memory system may include one or more regions of logical addresses and a plurality of memory cells arranged according to a plurality of physical addresses. In some instances, data may be stored to one or more discontinuous physical addresses and it may be desirable rearrange the data to be within continuous physical addresses (e.g., it may be desirable to defragment the data). Accordingly, the data stored to the one or more discontinuous physical addresses may be arranged (e.g., rearranged) to be within continuous physical addresses based at least in part on a value stored to one or more registers of the memory system.
