Abstract
A programming failure is detected at a block of a memory device. Based on detecting the programming failure, the block is determined to be partially good based on a number of failed bytes in the block. An unfailing portion of the block is identified in response to determining the block is partially good. A record indicating the block is partially good and identifying the unfailing portion of the block is stored.
