Abstract

Implementations of the present application disclose a method of operating a memory controller, a device and a storage medium. The controller is coupled to the memory, and the method includes: acquiring respective lifetimes of at least two partitions included in the memory, the lifetimes of the partitions being related to wear levels of the partitions; determining a target partition from the at least two partitions based on the respective lifetimes of the at least two partitions; and selecting a block from the target partition as a temporary block, the temporary block to store fragmented data. The above method avoids excessive wear to a certain fixed partition in the memory caused by setting the temporary block, thereby improving the service life of the memory.
