Abstract

A memory system has a controller (e.g., CPU, FPGA, or GPU) and recording segments in a non-volatile memory (e.g., a flash memory device) used by the controller to store data. The controller is configured to: maintain data write counters for the recording segments; select a first segment of the recording segments for recording data from a host system, wherein selecting the first segment comprises scanning the data write counters to identify a first data write counter corresponding to the first segment; receive, from the host system, data to be recorded by the non-volatile memory; and write the received data to the selected first segment.
