Abstract
A system and method for adaptive enhanced post write reads (EPWRs) is provided. An error rate of a block of solid state memory may be determined. Foldings may be performed more times between two consecutive enhanced post write reads on the block when the determined error rate of the block is a lower value than when the determined error rate is a higher value. The foldings may be performed by folding data into the block of the solid state memory.
