Abstract
A memory system includes a controller and a memory array that stores partial-page data and complete-page data in separate areas. Data received from a host is sent from a memory controller to an on-chip cache prior to determining whether the data is partial-page data or complete-page data. After a determination is made, the data is stored at an address in the corresponding area.
