Abstract

A method of managing a non-volatile memory module, the method may include: receiving data sectors during a set of at least one write transactions; selecting, out of the currently buffered portions, to-be-merged memory space portions and to-be-cleaned memory space portions; merging, for each to-be-merged memory space portion and before the buffer becomes full, data sectors that belong to the to-be-merged memory space portion into a sequential portion of the non-volatile memory module, wherein the sequential portion differs from the buffer; and copying, for each to-be-cleaned memory space and before the buffer becomes full, data sectors that belong to the to-be-cleaned memory space portion into a buffer block of the buffer.
