Abstract
Memory systems may include a logical block address (LBA) space divided into a number of zones, a counter associated with each zone, each counter suitable for incrementing a count value when a read is performed on an LBA in the zone with which the counter is associated, and a controller suitable for calculating a temperature of each zone based on the count values of the counters, sorting the zones according to the calculated temperature, combining the zones into a number of superzones based on the sorting, and splitting the number of superzones into the number of zones into which the LBA space was divided.
