Abstract
A data management method for a rewritable non-volatile memory module including a first memory unit and a second memory unit is provided. The method includes: grouping erasing units of the first memory unit into a data area and a spare area; and grouping the physical erasing units of the second memory unit into a data backup area and a command recording area; configuring multiple logical addresses to map to the physical erasing units associated with the data area; receiving a write command which instructs writing data; writing the data to a physical erasing unit associated with the spare area, and writing the data to a physical erasing unit associated with the data backup area; recording at least a portion of the write command in a physical erasing unit associated with the command recording area. Accordingly, data is backuped in the rewritable non-volatile memory module.
