Abstract
A data storage device includes a memory die. The memory die includes a resistive random access memory (ReRAM) having a first portion and a second portion that is adjacent to the first portion. A method includes determining whether to access the second portion of the ReRAM in response to initiating a first operation targeting the first portion of the ReRAM. The method further includes initiating a second operation that senses information stored at the second portion to generate sensed information in response to determining to access the second portion. The method further includes initiating a third operation to rewrite the information at the ReRAM in response to detecting an indication of a disturb condition based on the sensed information.
